DID YOU KNOW?! 🦴🦷🤯

Teeth are often mistaken for bones due to their similarities.
They are white, hard, and composed of minerals like calcium and phosphorus, which are visible on X-rays. However, a key distinction lies in their composition, as bones contain collagen, a protein that provides strength and flexibility. Furthermore, teeth lack the ability to heal and regenerate like bones, making them unable to naturally repair damage.

🩺 Why Your Scoliosis Doctor Should "Age" With You! 🩺

Living with scoliosis is a journey, not a sprint. From childhood to adulthood, your spine undergoes changes, and so do your needs when it comes to managing your condition. That's why having a scoliosis doctor who can literally "age" with you is incredibly important!

Here’s why continuity of care is key:

Deep Understanding of Your Unique Case: A doctor who has treated you over many years understands the nuances of your specific curve, your personal history, past treatments, and how your body responds. This long-term perspective is invaluable for personalized care.

Tracking Progression Over Time: Scoliosis can progress at different rates during various life stages (e.g., rapid progression during adolescent growth spurts, potential changes during pregnancy or with age). A consistent doctor can accurately track these changes and intervene appropriately.

Seamless Transition from Pediatric to Adult Care: This is a critical period for many scoliosis patients. A doctor who treats both children and adults, or a team that collaborates closely, ensures a smooth handover, preventing gaps in care and anxiety for patients and families.

Addressing Age-Related Concerns: As we age, new considerations arise, such as spinal degeneration, arthritis, or osteoporosis, which can impact scoliosis. A long-term doctor can anticipate and address these issues proactively, integrating them into your scoliosis management plan.

Building Trust and Comfort: Let's be honest – talking about your spine and body can be personal. Having a consistent, trusted medical professional makes you feel more comfortable and confident in your treatment decisions.

Whether you're a parent of a child with scoliosis or an adult managing your own curve, consider the benefits of a long-term relationship with your scoliosis specialist. It's about more than just appointments; it's about building a comprehensive, lifelong care strategy!

What is ?
can be difficult to detect, but if it’s caught early on, patients can get the treatment to potentially slow the progression of their curve.
That’s why if you think your child might have scoliosis, it’s critical they are seen by a skilled specialist like the doctors at .
