Seasons Game Contest

Snowflakes in summer? It must be time for McNamara Orthodontics’ “Seasons Game Contest!”

Play now for your chance to enter a drawing for $50 Amazon Gift Card.

How to Play the Seasons Game

  • The objective of the game is to reach the “Autumn Leaves” tile by combining previous tiles.
  • Use your computer keyboard arrows to move up or down, left or right to slide the matching tiles together.
  • When two matching tiles (such as two trees, two suns, etc) are slid together, they will change to the next tile in the Legend. With each move, a new tile will appear.
  • Reach the “Autumn Leaves” tile and an “Enter Contest” button will appear above the game board. You’re now entered in the drawing for the Amazon gift card.
  • If all sixteen tiles on your board become filled with no matching images side by side – GAME OVER!

This popular contest runs July 20th through October 28th. Visit our Contests Page to play.

While you’re matching your “autumn leaves,” don’t forget to have a safe and happy summer. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Congratulations to our Spring Puzzle Contest Winner, now the recipient of two tickets to Cedar Point Amusement Park in Sandusky, OH!

For this contest, which ran April 25th through June 29th, we asked patients to accurately assemble an online puzzle of Cedar Point! Completing the puzzle successfully guaranteed patients a spot in the final drawing for the tickets.

Congrats again to our winner – we hope you have fun … though not too many sugary treats while you’re at the park, of course!

We’ll be announcing our next contest, the “Seasons Game” shortly. Keep an eye on our Contests Page here.

McNamara Orthodontics hopes all our patients and their families are enjoying their summer!

More than one-third of adults and 70% of children have admitted to getting sunburn at least once or twice in the past 12 months according to the CDC.

What Causes Sunburn

You already know the simple explanation behind sunburn. When your skin is exposed to the sun for a period of time, eventually it burns, turning red and irritated.
Under the skin, things get a little more complicated. The sun gives off three wavelengths of ultraviolet light:
• UVA
• UVB
• UVC Read more on Sunburn – You’re Burning Up…

July 4th Ann Arbor MIWe celebrate American Independence Day on the July 4th every year. We think of July 4th, 1776, as a day that represents the Declaration of Independence and the birth of the United States of America as an independent nation.

The Continental Congress approved the final wording of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776. They’d been working on it for a couple of days after the draft was submitted on July 2nd and finally agreed on all of the edits and changes. Read more on July 4th – Some Independence Day Fun Facts…
