Here’s a friendly reminder to not forget to schedule your next appointment! ☎️🦷😊
With school being back in session, our early morning and late afternoon appointments are filling up fast. Because we schedule our patients in 8 week cycles, it’s important to schedule your next appointment before you leave the office so we can best accommodate your scheduling needs. 🤗
Just a furrrr-endly 🐶 reminder to be sure to stop by our front desk to schedule your next appointment on your way out the door! 🚪
As most of you know, we typically schedule our patients in 8 week cycles. It’s important to schedule your next appointment before leaving the office because our schedule fills up fast! 🗓️
Forgot to make your appointment? No problem! You can call our office to schedule at 951-679-6822 (or simply reply to your text message reminders), and one of our scheduling coordinators will get in touch with you! ☎️
On Thursday, we had not one, not two, but EIGHT patients get their braces off (which is a bit more than we normally have in a day 😆). So we decided to celebrate “deband” day by treating a few patients to some extra goodies! 🎈🍿🥰
“Debanding” (getting braces removed) is a big accomplishment for our patients, as a lot of work goes into keeping up with good oral hygiene and being consistent with elastics. Keep up the good work everybody! 🙌🏽

We will be checking messages throughout this time, and will have assistants available for emergency appointments. Dr. Erickson and staff will be back in the office for regular appointments on Tuesday, March 21st- bright and early at 6am! 🌅

Such a sweet note of gratitude from a patient to their parents after getting their braces off. ❤️💌❤️
A huge shout out to all the parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, siblings, and family members dedicated to bringing our patients to their appointments and investing in their orthodontic treatment. We appreciate you too! ❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations to Jessie (part of our scheduling team ☎️) for getting her braces off this week! 🦷🥳👏🏼
At Erickson Orthodontics, several members of our team have gone through/are going through orthodontic treatment. We know firsthand the dedication needed to maintain good oral hygiene, wear elastics, make regular adjustment appointments, and wear retainers once braces are off. Keep up the great work everybody! ❤️
We hope that you are all doing well. Our great team has grown and shifted some and we wanted to update our patients. We are excited to announce that Tori has joined Michelle in managing our office. Baylee, who is also from the front desk, is now helping out the back office team,. Stephanie is working from home to support our team. With Tori and Baylee leaving the front desk, we have welcomed Jessie and Crystal to our team in the last few months. They are doing a fabulous job. Melanie, one of our Orthodontic Assistants, is going to school to become a Dental Hygienist. We are excited for her and we look forward to her helping out still from time to time. Maricela, who is an experienced Orthodontic Assistant, will be joining our team in about a month. As always, our team strives to serve our patients with extraordinary care. We look forward to seeing you soon!
We need your help!
On Sunday, two fraudulent reviews were written by two people who are not patients and have no part with our office. Google has been very unhelpful with issues like these. If all of our fans sign onto their Google accounts and flag the fake reviews as “not relevant,” Google will eventually take it down. Thank you to all of our patients and we are grateful for all your support!
We hope everyone had a great Easter! We are missing our patients. Remember to call with any emergencies and we will get back to you as soon as possible. We are anxious to re-open our doors and are just waiting for the green light. We believe it will still be a few weeks, at least. Take care and please call us if you need anything!
