This is why we had children! Our little Charlotte wrote me such a nice note today. I’m kind of bummed she didn’t talk about me being a world class surfer now or a semi-pro basketball player, but it’s a start! Family is the best!! #kids #thankyou #thankyounote #parenting #northcountysd #sanmarcosorthodontist
Got out early this morning to practice my surfing game and exercise a little. #terramar is a fun place, but I was a little out of my league this morning and got pummeled pretty good by some big waves! Oh well - we’ll try some more tomorrow! #surf #surfing #beach #waves #drcheapsmilescantsurf
Happy #nationalsonsday Carson! You are an awesome person and great example to your little sisters! I’m so grateful our girls have someone awesome to look up to. #sons #family #bigbrother #firstborn
Ummmm, I didn’t know it was #nationaldaughtersday yesterday, but I don’t want to look like a bad dad, so I’m posting a day late!! Ha ha. I’m so blessed to be a father. These girls are my favorite people in the world...sorry Carson! I just thought I’d buy them a purple @lamborghini for being such good kids! #cars #daughters #daddysgirls #girldad #family
Little miss denlie wrote up a book report on Dogman!! Awesome prizes for our patients who are working hard!! If you child wants an NFO kids club card just ask the wonderful team members at the front! We will totally let them wear NFO hats so they can do our marketing for us!! #study #read #bookreport #nfosmiles #marketing #northcountysd #northcountysandiego

Team spotlight! Everyone knows and loves Maria! She has been with us for almost two years and in the dental field for 10. She loves spending time with her family and her dog Daisy! We love having Maria with our team. She loves to talk and get to know people...so much sometimes that Dr Z has to tell her to get back to work!! Ha ha. Just kidding. Happy Friday everyone!

Dr Cheapsmiles’ assistant Giggles tries to pull a fast one and get all diagnostic with a patient. Doc CS puts a quick end to the idea that xrays are needed and puts Giggles in her place. Nice acting @esvaidyy !! #diyking #diy #diyprojects #diyeverything #satire

I had fun teaching some basics yesterday at @pmi_sanmarcos to the dental assistants in training. I really enjoy teaching and I’m sure the students were suuuuper excited to have me there! #orthodontics #dentalassisting #rda #pimamedicalinstitute #orthodonticassistant #sanmarcosorthodontist
Let me be clear! I like animals and kind of want a pet, but we have four kids, so we’re postponing adopting a pet into our family right now. If you have a pet and need someone to watch it, reach out to @petcarebysophia - Sophia will do a great job! Sorry for throwing you under the bus @tchkinder !!
😇😇🤭🤭
If you or your child is running a business and want us to do a spotlight please reach out! I love to help young entrepreneurs !

As our kids get older, only the young ones will let us post pics!! Shoutout to @danicanelson1 for always putting together amazing costumes for our kids! We had a drive thru event at our church tonight and the girls were excited to get in their costumes!
#happyhalloween everyone! I decided to mix it up this year and dress up as someone from Barstow (I grew up there) rather than a gangster! #gangster #barstow #orthodontics #goldchains

Did you know the hotel industry is out to pick your pocket? They typically don’t like 10-15 people staying in one room, but you could easily fit 20 in any of these rooms no problem. Watch the #diyking give you tips on hotel stays. Kids love it! #diyeverything #diy #gum
Also, when is @icebreakers going to sponsor me with some gum!!
Kind of cool to see what @wearelightforce custom 3d printed brackets can do in four months!! Using the latest technology helps us create awesome smiles in less time. This patient still has some work to do with elastics to line up the bite correctly, but we’ll get Dan all squared away soon enough! #orthodontics #orthodontist #digitalbraces #3dprinting #indirectbonding #custombraces

Ringing in the new year with a creepy eyes-open kiss of my wife! Ha ha! Question: how many years until people start asking if she’s my daughter? Happy New Year everyone!! #happynewyear #bye2020 #happynewyear2021
It’s crazy hair day!! Who has the best and worst hairdo? I think @esvaidyy did some pretty cool stuff and Esme has the worst hairdo (but best mullet). Ha ha! It’s for the kids. We dress up for the kids. You know Dr Z doesn’t even like doing this stuff...🤫

Happy bday to these two!! We didn’t get to celebrate over the break, so we had some #rubios for lunch today and then Tres Leches cake! Of course Dr Z didn’t eat any because he’s too healthy with his New Years resolutions. Ha ha! Here’s to a hopeful 2021! Happy bday Sarai and Linda!! #birthday #partytime #partyindoorswithnoone #partiesstinkwithcovid

Took the kids up to @snow_summit today for some outdoor learning! We haven’t been snowboarding for like five years and we were past due! I was kind of disappointed I only got three sponsorship opportunities today. #snowboard #snow #snowboarding #bigbear #snowsummit
Today is bittersweet. Megan is leaving us to start her own business and we are so happy for her, but we are sad to see her go. We really have gelled as a team with her managing things here and while it pains us to see her go, we know she has a bright future. Thank you @meggybee - you are a wonderful person. Hopefully she’s not leaving because of Dr Z’s stupid #dadjokes that get sooo annoying!! Ha ha. #team #workfamily #sweetgoodbyes #bittersweet #entrepreneur

Please welcome our new office manager Cynthia!! @cjahshan brings years of experience in orthodontics to our office. She is so nice, smiley, and happy all the time and we are excited to have her help in continuing our world domination! Ha ha.

Orthodontics is so much more than straight teeth! Of course we love straight teeth and a beautiful smile, but we want to make sure your teeth last forever and your bite is comfortable. @drcheapsmiles just wants your money. Television ads are misleading in that they only promote straight teeth and they don’t worry about the bite! It’s important to see a professional so you get the best of both worlds! #bracesarebeautiful #braces #orthodontics #sanmarcosorthodontist #sanmarcosortho #northcountysd #northcountysandiego #smile #straightteeth #invisalign

We had a team meeting/book club party today. This book is amazing! I love how it teaches us to work together as a team! My favorite takeaway of the day was that being able to debate and be honest with each other is essential to building trust. A team has to be willing to listen to each other and take the good and bad! Of course, Dr Z has nothing but praise for this amazing team of ours!! Probably...
