INBRACE


INBRACE by Dr. Mogavero

INBRACE

By Dr. Mogavero

By Veronica Badzey

For 28 years, Dr. Frank Mogavero has been creating big, beautiful smiles for kids, teens, and adults throughout Southern California and beyond. He and his talented team are known for compassionate orthodontic care and exceptional results that are delivered  in a cool, fun-loving environment. Through the utilization of clear and metal braces, Invisalign, early treatment, and surgical and airway orthodontics, Dr. Mogavero customizes a treatment plan to meet the needs and goals of each patient, whether it’s for preventative, restorative or cosmetic outcomes. Now, he is one of only a select group of orthodontists in the U.S. to offer an innovative technology that may transform the path to gorgeous teeth — INBRACE.

As one of approximately 100 orthodontists invited to offer the cutting-edge INBRACE system, Dr. Mogavero is uniquely positioned to provide this remarkable new technology that straightens teeth far more efficiently and quickly than traditional braces. “I think this is the most significant advancement in many years.” says Dr. Mogavero, “I am proud to be one of only a handful of orthodontists across the country to be able to treat with INBRACE before it is released nationally next year.”

INBRACE was originally developed by a dedicated team of Orthodontists, Engineers, Biologists, Computer Scientists and Advanced Manufacturing Experts at USC’s Ostrow School of Dentistry. This revolutionary system works through the use of friction-free Smartwires made of flexible interdental loops that are designed to fit behind teeth, instead of in front of them. Unlike metal braces and Invisalign (which uses aligners and fasteners that can still be seen on the front of teeth), this makes INBRACE truly invisible.

“The Smartwires move teeth more efficiently with light continuous forces,” relates Dr. Mogavero, “which is the best way to move teeth. All of the activations are built into the loops of the Smartwire, which starts working immediately.” This translates into less dental visits for patients, more accurate results, and faster treatment times. Patients can also floss and brush normally while wearing INBRACE, due to the ingenious Smartwire design. INBRACE is also more hygienic than removable clear aligners, which tend to trap food and liquids, and can become stained and discolored over time.

The most exciting feature of INBRACE is that no one will even know you’re wearing them. Dr. Mogavero’s INBRACE patient, Figen Padley says, “I absolutely love my INBRACE. I’ve had them on for two months and the changes have been significant. The braces aren’t visible, and my smile looks great.”

It’s easy to get started with INBRACE. The procedure begins with a simple set of orthodontic X-rays, digital photos, and scans of a patient’s teeth. The data is then uploaded directly to the INBRACE team through its secure online portal. A single visit is usually all that’s needed to attach the new, custom-designed braces, and patients will be happy to know that INBRACE is typically covered by orthodontic dental insurance.

Dr. Mogavero is a Board Certified Orthodontist (Baylor Orthodontics) with degrees in Biomedical Engineering and Dentistry from UCLA and he has taught Orthodontics for five years at USC. His practice includes locations in San Clemente, San Diego, and Mammoth Lakes. Give him a call today to schedule an appointment or visit SyncYourSmile.com.

“At first I was really skeptical about trying a new technology with INBRACE. My friends have already noticed my straighter smile, and it’s only been about a month! I can definitely tell it’s working.”
— Tannor Morgan

“I’m really excited to have my teeth straightened. The INBRACE was such a quick and easy process with Dr. Mogavero.”
— Nicki Bright

“I am thankful for INBRACE because I am straightening my teeth — and nobody knows it but me! My tooth movement has been quick – a lot quicker than expected — and my friends are already noticing how straight my smile is getting! Thank you to Dr. Mogavero and the Team at INBRACE!”
— Lindsay Russo with son Mason

San Clemente Ocean Festival

San Clemente Ocean Festival

2018 San Clemente Ocean Festival

July 21-22

Summer is here, and the San Clemente Ocean Festival is ramping up for its 42nd year of fantastic ocean and beach events, entertainment and activities for everyone to enjoy. Bring your sunglasses, sunscreen and appetite for food and fun to the San Clemente Pier on July 21st and July 22nd for “The Greatest Show on Surf.”

Come hungry and have a hot-off-the-griddle pancake breakfast prepared by San Clemente’s very own lifeguards from 7 to11 a.m. on both days. All proceeds benefit the efforts of local lifeguards. Fisherman’s Restaurant will offer plenty of delicious fare available near the Pier, from corn on the cob and turkey legs, to strawberry shortcake, shaved ice, and much more! Stop by the sponsor booths for games, prizes and information about their various products and services.

Saturday’s Lifeguard Competition includes the Surf Race, Rescue Relay, Surf Ski, Paddleboard Rescue Relay, International & American Ironman’s, and 10’6” Paddleboard Sprint. Check out the exciting National Doryman Association Races, where two-person teams paddle 300 lb. fiber glass boats through the crashing surf. Also included in Saturday’s line-up is the push-in division of the Groms Rule Surf Contest (7 and under), plus the SUP Surfing Championships where participants showcase their style, speed, and athleticism.

Sunday offers exciting and fun-filled ocean swims, beach runs, biathlons (run-swim) and SUP/Paddle races for everyone. The premiere event is the One Mile Ocean Swim, which is now officially sanctioned by the Global Swim Series (GSS). New this year is a team championship trophy for highest scoring club in the One Mile Ocean Swim. Also featured for the first time at the Oceanfest, qualified Marine and Navy personnel will compete in The Marine Raider Boat Challenge – with six person boat teams vying in a challenging ocean and beach course. For a description of all athletic events, course maps and rules, visit OceanFestival.org.

Looking for family fun? Head south of the Pier to the Youth Pavilion, packed with crafts and games, plus demonstrations and performances for all ages to enjoy. The popular Dolphin Dash kid’s beach run, for ages 12 and under (all participants will receive an Ocean Festival medallion), takes place on Saturday. On Saturday, stop by the Body Surfing Clinics, just south of the Youth Pavilion, for information on how to identify rip currents, and for instruction on body surfing.

Don’t miss the Ocean Art Show in Parque Del Mar, overlooking the event’s activities north of the beach entrance, to find that special piece to take home. Car enthusiasts can walk down the San Clemente Pier to check out the gorgeous automobiles in the Woody Car Exhibit. Fifteen different cars will be displayed each day of the event. On Saturday, the kiddos will have a blast at the Kid’s Fishing Clinic and all ages Derby at the end of the Pier.

Saturday evening, drop your towel on the sand, and enjoy a completely free concert, featuring MoonShine, as the sun sets on the first day of the festival. Meals will be available on the beach for purchase. On Sunday, south of the Pier, get your creative juices flowing and participate in the sand sculpting competition. The Great Rubber Duck Race rounds out the weekend’s festivities on Sunday afternoon. For a mere $5, you can “sponsor” a duck for a chance to win a prize as the entire flock is released and heads ashore.

As a 501(c)4 non-profit organization, the San Clemente Ocean Festival works in partnership with the City of Clemente and has become a tradition for many within the community, the inland empire, and as far reaching as the East Coast, Hawaii, and Australia. Proceeds from product sales and the generosity from sponsors allow the Festival to support worthy local organizations such as San Clemente Lifeguards, Ocean Institute Adopt-A-Class program, Summer Beach Concerts, and scholarships for local students.

ADMISSION IS FREE.
Avoid parking hassles by taking the train (it stops right at the Pier). If you’re driving, take advantage of the complimentary parking and shuttle service from Outlets at San Clemente (101 West Avenida Vista Hermosa, San Clemente) to the event from 6:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, and 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Sunday. For detailed information regarding event schedules, volunteer and sponsorship opportunities, and to register for athletic events, visit OceanFestival.org.

Fine Men’s Salons

The 18|8 Story

When combined, 18% chromium and 8% nickel “transformed” steel becomes more enhanced and better performing stainless steel. The result is 18|8; the moniker for the transformation of the male clientele to look better, feel better and perform better.

Gentleman’s Grooming Done Right

The professional stylists and barbers at 18|8 give more than great men’s haircuts, they also give great advice on men’s style, trends and grooming products. 18|8 takes pride in how well-educated the staff and stylists are when it comes to offering clients advice, tips and solutions for their hair care and grooming conundrums. We make sure that we give everyone who steps through our door the time, attention and courtesy that they deserve. Give 18|8 the chance to show you how truly confident you can be with a fresh cut, shave and proper grooming.

The 18|8 Heritage

1913 in Sheffield, England, Harry Brearley discovered that adding 18% chromium and 8% nickel added to steel eliminated the tendency for it to oxidize and rust. The formula, known as 18|8, transformed steel into better looking and better performing steel. What was ordinary, became extraordinary.

Just as 18|8 makes steel look and perform better, the vision and mission at 18|8 Fine Men’s Salons is to help successful men transform themselves to look, feel and perform their best. The reinvention of the barbershop, an experience designed to bring out the best in men. Thanks to the expertise in men’s hair care, styling, grooming products and consultation, 18|8 provides the best services in a relaxing environment. A trusted place for men to have a professional grooming experience.

Stylish Services for Stylish Men

18|8 specializes in delivering exemplary grooming and styling treatments for men who want to look their absolute best. Each and every one of 18|8’s services is focused toward helping men look and feel better and gain more confidence in their overall appearance.

Reed Team

A Trusted Name in Real Estate

by Veronica Badzey  |  Photo by The Bowman Group

For a trusted name in real estate, look no further than the Reed Team of San Clemente. Rated the #1 Team in Orange County on Zillow, four years in a row, the team is committed to providing concierge-level service, expert knowledge and competitive market strategies throughout the real estate purchase and sales process. In the current real estate climate, the Reed Team knows that delivering a personalized approach to meet the unique needs of each client is critical for successful outcomes.

When deciding to partner with a real estate group, one should expect professional, experienced, responsive agents and strong brand consistency that’s based on honesty and integrity. The Reed Team is dedicated to providing you with exactly that… and more. Under the leadership of Jimmy Reed, a licensed Realtor® with over 20 years of experience and a Graduate of the Realtor Institute, his team has expanded and has opened a new office location in San Clemente this month.

Jimmy began his real estate career as a Coldwell Banker agent in Huntington Beach, where he succeeded in becoming the #1 ranked agent out of its 10 offices and reached the top 1% of agents nationwide for 14 years running. Prior to becoming a Realtor,® he served for 5 years in the U.S. Army and during the first Gulf War. Soon after, he was tapped to become part of the exclusive Army Honor Guard and Presidential Escort Unit in Washington D.C., where he was honored to serve under two U.S. Presidents.

Jimmy brings the same dedication, focus, and tenacity he exhibited in the nation’s capital to his work in real estate. “What makes us different from other real estate teams,” relates Jimmy, “is our extreme ethical values. We are always up-front and honest with our clients, and we educate them on exactly what’s needed to sell a property at the highest price, or to buy the home of their dreams even in a very competitive market.”

The Reed Team believes in proactively driving traffic to a client’s listing through the use of technology and various marketing and advertising platforms to get the most possible eyes on a property. With seven licensed Sales Partners and an administrative staff focused specifically on operations, marketing, and technology, it’s possible for the team to offer clients a highly collaborative and more effective marketing approach than often found through the traditional solo agent model. The team leverages popular online real estate platforms like Trulia and Zillow, social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube and the more time-honored marketing avenues of snail mail and email blasts, as well as tapping into its vast network of industry professionals. For each and every listing, the talented marketing group generates multiple compelling videos using drones, HDR photography and other technology to enhance viewership on the most prolific real estate sites around. Instead of simply marketing to a general geographical area and hoping for the best, the Reed Team demographically targets buyers and utilizes property-specific approaches that translate into quicker sales cycles and more dollars in their clients’ pockets.

It’s a testament to the team’s high level of client satisfaction that over 70% of its business is derived from referrals and repeat customers. As proof that their system works, a recent client’s listing went from having little response with their previous Realtor,® to becoming the #1 viewed property on Zillow in just 48 hours after switching to the Reed Team. In two days, the home received over 400 views and the client had five offers at and above asking price.

The Reed Team uses the same technique when helping buyers find their ideal home, whether they are looking for a $400,000 townhome in Mission Viejo or an $8.2 million estate in Ritz Cove. Their primary service area is South Orange County, but they can often be found listing and selling homes for clients from Rancho Santa Fe to Long Beach, including everything from condominiums, single-family homes, sprawling equestrian estates and ocean-front villas. In addition, they offer a full concierge suite of ancillary services, including an extensive network of professional photographers, home stagers, house cleaners, painters, construction companies, and trusted lending partners.

“Everything we do is for our customers,” says Jimmy. “Whether they are buying or selling, our services are designed to protect them from having to experience the highs and lows that create so much stress when buying or selling a home. We want people to understand the real landscape, so they can make the best decisions possible.”

Jimmy Reed has lived in San Clemente for 17 years with his wife, Lisa. To find out how the Reed Team can help you buy or sell your next home, visit ReedTeamHomes.com or call (949) 973-3636.

Hoedown 4 Hunger

Hoedown 4 Hunger

Hoedown 4 Hunger

The first annual Hoedown 4 Hunger takes place on Sunday, June 3rd from noon to 6 p.m. at the Limo Barn in Rancho Mission Viejo’s Reata Park. The proceeds from this event will benefit hungry children and families in Orange County through two outreach non-profits:  Focus OC and Family Assistance Ministries. Focus OC delivers food vouchers to families living in small hotels, especially in the summer when school food programs are not available. Family Assistance Ministries (FAM) runs a daily food bank in San Clemente and has a weekly food bank in San Juan Capistrano on Wednesdays. FAM also provides clothing, food to the elderly and many other services.

Bring the entire family! Hoedown 4 Hunger will feature live music from the Kelly Boys and Country Western-style dancing with instructors to help beginners. Once guests have danced up an appetite, they can enjoy BBQ ribs, hamburgers and hot dogs with the proceeds from food purchases supporting the cause. Beer, wine and signature margaritas will also be available for purchase. Come dressed to impress in your finest Western boots and hat and enter the Best Dressed Contest. Awards will also be handed out to the winners of the Chili Cook-off and Blue Ribbon Pie Contest. There will be a variety of free games and fun activities for the kids to enjoy. Admission to the event and parking are free.

Hoedown 4 Hunger was founded by Irene Basdakis of St. Basil Greek Orthodox Church in San Juan Capistrano. Irene and her committee have reached out to the St. Basil’s community of 140 families to sponsor the event so that 100% of the proceeds will go toward feeding and caring for families in need. When asked about her motivation, Irene shared, “We truly begin to live a life of purpose when we can look beyond our own churches and households and see the community around us as our neighbors, whom we are called to care for and embrace as part of our extended family.” Irene is currently on the St. Basil Church Parish Council and is a past Parish Council President.
