Dr. Andre Haerian
Orthodontist
HLS Orthodontics
6407 Monroe St, Sylvania

What do you want readers to know about your practice that they may not know?
One of the most unpleasant procedures in an orthodontic office is having an impression done of the teeth. Not too many people enjoy a metal tray filled with a pudding-like substance being inserted into their mouth for the longest 30 seconds of their life! At HLS, our patients no longer need to undergo this old-fashioned way of making models of the teeth. Two years ago we invested in digital technology so we can use a small wand to scan the teeth, create a digital file, and then print the models on a 3-D printer.
What sets you apart from others in the area?
One of the things that sets our office apart, literally sets our office apart! All three of our offices feature separated treatment areas. In regular dentistry, this is the norm. However, in orthodontics, it’s much more efficient for the orthodontist to have exam chairs lined up next to each other in one big room. Dr. Gene Simon, who founded our practice in 1981, designed his first office with this unprecedented concept of privacy for patients, and we have continued with this standard in subsequent offices in Lambertville and Maumee.
