We’ve been celebrating the new year for a really, really long time. It goes way back, but it started formally in 1582, when Pope George XIII made January 1^st the official holiday for ushering in the new year. The idea was to yell, cheer, and blow horns to scare away all the evil spirits of the previous year with the hope that the new one would be filled with happiness and opportunity.

While scaring away evil spirits isn’t what’s on our mind these days, we still ring in the New Year by cheering and hollering with friends and family. It’s a time to set new goals, refocus on old ones, and look forward to all the surprises the coming year will bring.

Whether you’re saying hello to the New Year snuggled up at home on your couch in the Hamburg or Amherst, NY area or by gathering your friends for a social celebration, here are some tips to help ensure you welcome this new chapter with a smile.

Tips for a great New Year’s Eve celebration from Suburban Orthodontics

Stay safe. This one’s vital, because nothing puts a damper on your party like an emergency trip to the hospital. Stay responsible and try to plan ahead, whether that means taking a taxi, staying with a friend, or recruiting a designated driver. Do what you have to do to keep yourself and everyone around you safe.
Spend time with the people you love most. The way we see it, the whole point of the holiday season is to cherish your family and friends. Regardless of what you’re doing, make sure there’s something for everyone. It’s essential to do something the whole group will enjoy!
Smile! Whether you get all dressed to go out or have a quiet gathering with family and friends, make sure you accessorize with a smile. There’s always something to smile about!

We can all agree that change can be scary sometimes, but ringing in the New Year is an observance we all welcome with open arms. We hope you’ll enjoy this transitional holiday in a fun, healthy, and safe way. You have endless possibilities ahead of you!

From Dr. Jason Jones, have a fantastic New Year!

We have been patients of this orthodontic practice for the past 5+ years with 2 children in treatment and 2 more future patients. The transformation under Dr. Patel’s care has been so much better than it was before he started this new practice. Before he took over, our experience was extremely inconsistent and often frustrating. There was a lack of communication amongst the office staff and the previous orthodontist and the patients Since Dr. Patel stepped in, it has been the complete opposite.

Dr. Patel is transparent, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in the well-being of his patients. He takes the time to explain every step of the process, answers questions thoroughly, and makes both parents and kids feel comfortable and informed. It’s clear he cares deeply about creating a positive experience and delivering excellent results.

Although he had a lot of “undoing” to do when he took over the practice, he has handled it with professionalism, integrity, and a clear commitment to improvement. We are extremely happy with the care our children are receiving now and highly recommend Dr. Patel and his team!!

Dr. Patel is very attentive and caring. If you have a issue he immediately puts you at ease and assists with concerns. His team is absolutely great and caring as well, they are always so pleasant. My previous scans had a missing far back tooth when I have a tooth there (previous scan from previous owner) Dr. Patel agreed with me that tracking would be fine but that missing tooth would not track with the rest and scanned me for new trays when previous Owner/Dr. Wouldn't and said it was fine to wear with a missing tooth. (I dont like to talk about previous owners however due to the circumstances and how it played a roll in my ortho process i am) I was so happy that Dr. Patel took my concerns seriously, agreed with me and promptly got me new trays. Fast, efficient, and accommodating all before christmas. Highly recommend them!

I had a great experience bringing my son to Dr. Patels dental/orthodontic office! The entire team was so welcoming and patient, and they took the time to answer all of my questions without ever making me feel rushed. Their bedside manner is truly outstanding — kind, professional, and reassuring from start to finish. The service was excellent, and I felt completely comfortable throughout my visit. Highly recommend!
