Although a lot has changed in 25 years, one thing that has<br />

remained consistent is the outstanding reputation of Dr. Moroco<br />

and her team, which now includes Dr. David Simon.<br />

“I<br />

want to say a million great things about Moroco Orthodontics!<br />

I was immediately greeted by a very warm and friendly<br />

front desk. At 55 my teeth were shifting, so I decided to get<br />

Invisalign. I met with Dr. Moroco and I knew right away she was<br />

going to help me. She has a great reputation and is simply the VERY<br />

best out there,” said Sheri.<br />

“As a family, we are so honored to be a patient of Moroco Orthodontics.<br />

From the first call we were greeted with professionalism and a<br />

caring representative. When we arrived, they knew my son by name<br />

and welcomed us with open arms. Their technology is outstanding,<br />

and their professionalism is like none other. We are truly excited to<br />

get braces, and who says that? This was the best decision we’ve made<br />

for our family and the health of my son’s teeth,” said Randye.<br />

People not only rave about the doctors and the team but also<br />

about their consistent investment in new technology that makes<br />

the entire orthodontic experience more comfortable and efficient<br />

for patients of all ages and in all parts of the world.<br />

At Moroco Orthodontics, gone are the days of messy impressions,<br />

painful, lengthy and frequent appointments that can often be associated<br />

with past orthodontic treatments.<br />

New Patient Consultation<br />

“Believe me! I have been working with patients in this area for<br />

30 years and when my prior patients return for the orthodontic<br />

care of their children and/or retreatment for themselves they are<br />

amazed at the technology we have added to the practice to elevate<br />

the patient experience and quality of care!” said Dr. Moroco.<br />

Some of the most exciting and impactful technology investments<br />

have included:<br />

1) iTero scanners which eliminate the need for old-fashioned alginate<br />

impressions while providing 3D views of the teeth for diagnostic<br />

purposes.<br />

2) 3D Xray images that provide a more accurate view of tooth/<br />

jaw positions which leads to more accurate treatment plans and<br />

treatment timing.<br />

3) 3D Printers which provide detailed, accurate models of the patient’s<br />

teeth on which to design and fabricate appliances.<br />

4) Dental Monitoring TM, an AI-powered platform that allows<br />

patients to use their smartphones for weekly scans of the appliances,<br />

teeth and bite.<br />

The reports from these scans are uploaded for the doctors to<br />

review and can provide information that would not necessarily be<br />

detected by the human eye and/or by the patient.<br />

“The level of detail we read in these reports allows us to more<br />

accurately plan the patient’s next ‘in person’ appointment thereby<br />

eliminating the need for unnecessary visits to the office to check<br />

on treatment progress,” said Dr. Simon. “In a nutshell, we have a<br />

closer eye on treatment progress with less visits to the office. Also,<br />
