Silly Bands!

By Dr. Joseph Thompson, September 1, 2010

Silly Bands, they are everywhere

 

Sidney & Carly Pratt
It’s a Spiderman Silly Band!

You’ve seen a lot of them.  Everyone is wearing them.  They come in all shapes and colors.  The latest crazy fad is silly bands.
One patient loves them, Carly Pratt.  

She told me that she counted the other day how many bands she
had and it was over 240!  She is showing them off with her sister Sidney.  

The other thing I have seen is smaller ones that are worn on the fingers.  Now all I need is to find a WVU one, I’d be set. 

Sam says His “ABCs”

Sam Smith has his braces removed - Sept 2, 2010

Mr. Sam Smith had his braces removed today.  Sam put his new retainers in and started reciting his ABCs.  I laughed.  Sam says “I’ve got to get use to these retainers”  Way to go Sam.  It is true that retainers effect your speech therefore talking with the retainers in helps you start speaking clearly again.  Congrats Sam, good idea.

The schedules are placed out in the reception area for anybody to use, grab one.
