Dr. Ferguson was in Phoenix, Az. over the past weekend participating in the 12th Annual Damon Forum. A 3-day continuing education seminar about the braces we use in our office - The Damon System. While he was there learning about this innovative brace system, he was also fortunate enough to hear their new spokesperson, "Soul Surfer" Bethany Hamilton speak about her experience with the Damon Brace System.

Partners in Education Update

We are so excited to announce we have donated a total of $10,700.00 to local area schools from September 2011- December 2011 through our Partners in Education Program.  As you know, our Partners in Education program is a cooperative program we established in August 2010 to provide local area schools with a monetary donation they can utilize within their school to help off set the cost of classroom supplies. 

When a child or an adult starts full orthodontic treatment in our office, we will donate $100.00 to a school of their choice.  Once a month we will deliver a check along with a letter stating the name of the patient(s) who selected that school to receive the donation in their honor.

We have had such a great response from teachers, principals, superintendents, parents, etc., that we decided to continue this program  for the 2011-2012 year.  Thus, this far Fayette County has received a total of $5,600.00,  Bourbon County has received $1,500.00, Jessamine County has received $600.00 and other surrounding counties have received $2,700.00! 

All of us at Bluegrass Orthodontics are excited to continue this program and be able to give back to our communities which have been so good to us!  We value and understand the importance of education for the future success of the children within our community and this is just one way we are able to help.
