"Outstanding Customer Service This office has outstanding customer service. I work in the customer service industry and I would like to train my staff to be as friendly and professional as the staff at Dr. Birth's office. The front staff always greets me by name with a friendly smile. They are always asking about my kids--they really are interested in getting to know their patients. My orthodontic care is going very smoothly, the doctor is very kind and the staff is very friendly. I love this office and I recommend to all my friends." ~ Anonymous

More than just a day off from school

In the late 1950s and ’60s, civil rights champion Martin Luther King, Jr. recognized the need to bring about social justice, strengthen America’s communities and move the nation forward. This weekend, tens of thousands of people of all ages and races will spend their time building, giving and renovating our communities to help celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend. Do you have the day off on Monday? If so, what do you plan to do to help your local community?

We’d love to know about your activities and events this MLK Jr. Day. If you have any video or pictures you’d like to share, please pass them along! If you’re not sure how, give us a call!

Dr. Sheila Birth and our entire team at Birth-Stewart Orthodontics are proud of your work in our community!

Why are regular checkups so important while undergoing orthodontic treatment?

If you're brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing during your treatment at Birth-Stewart Orthodontics, we think that’s great! But, don’t forget that it’s also important to visit your general dentist every six months in addition to your visits to our office. Regular dental checkups are important for maintaining good oral health. Your dentist can:

• Check for problems that might not be seen or felt
• Detect cavities and early signs of decay
• Treat oral health problems early
• Show you how to properly brush and floss your teeth


During an oral exam the doctor will check the health of your mouth, teeth, gums, cheeks and tongue. Checkups will also include a thorough teeth cleaning and polishing. If you have not been to the dentist in the last six months, it’s definitely time to schedule an appointment! If you don't have a general dentist, just ask us - Dr. Birth and our staff know plenty of great dentists in Fort Worth, Arlington, Burleson and the greater Dallas area!

We hope you have a great weekend!

Connect with the Braces Brigade!

At Birth-Stewart Orthodontics, our patients want to get as much out of their treatment as possible. That includes asking a lot of questions and making sure they take care of both their appliances and oral health.

Would you like to learn more about what to expect during orthodontic treatment, from someone with firsthand experience? Well, our friends at the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recently developed the Braces Brigade blog, where past, present, as well as future orthodontic patients from coast to coast document their (or their child’s) orthodontic journeys. The blog will serve as a source of guidance for others as the patients undergo orthodontic care.

Dr. Sheila Birth and our entire team encourage you to visit the Braces Brigade blog to read these great and informative blogs—who knows, maybe you’ll learn a thing or two! As always, don’t hesitate to give us a call at one of our convenient offices in the Dallas area if you have any questions about the Braces Brigade or your own orthodontic treatment!

Happy New Year!
