Board Certified Orthodontist in Merced Joins Facebook to Continue Community Commitment

    MERCED, CA, September 26, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Richard Rowan does not serve a community. He serves his community. The highly skilled orthodontist grew up in Merced and graduated from Merced high school. As a longtime member of the area, Dr. Rowan believes in community wellness and giving back to his home.

"I'm not just an orthodontist," said Dr. Rowan. "I have raised six children here. I've coached sports teams. I have a strong commitment to the area, and interaction is a part of providing good service."

Ultimately, he joined Facebook to stay involved and accessible. "Social media is a popular, convenient way to interact with others from anywhere," said Dr. Rowan. "My Facebook page is informative and shows the fun side of orthodontics. There are so many happy patients showing off their new braces or pearly whites on the page. It's great."

Having a Facebook also increases community interaction with new members. "New patients or people new to the area are able to interact with current patients and staff members on Facebook," said Dr. Rowan. "This can put any anxieties at ease and help them decide if they want to make an appointment."

Dr. Rowan's practice has two locations, one in Merced and one in Mariposa. His services include: braces, Invisalign, surgical orthodontics, implants, removable Inman retainers, jaw evaluations and teeth whitening. He serves patients of all ages and can see children as young as six years old for an orthodontic evaluation. Treatment is rare at this age; however, the practice provides interceptive orthodontics in the event of a problem. Interceptive orthodontics are preventative treatments given to young children with foreseeable orthodontic problems in their future.
