Bucky is Combs Orthodontic’s mascot. Bucky welcomes you to our practice and encourages you to have fun with all our programs, contests, events, awards, and treatment.
We have our Combs Colts Program which is for our little guys and gals that are not quite ready for orthodontic treatment and will be monitored for growth and development checks until they are ready for orthodontic treatment. They receive Combs Bucks for Colt’s Rewards, and a certificate showing they are an official Comb’s Colt, and a t-shirt.
Combs Colts also welcomes patients who are currently in their first phase of orthodontic treatment, as well as those who have completed their first phase of treatment with the second phase right around the corner.
Patients starting full orthodontic treatment receive a T-shirt and Combs Bucks to purchase rewards in our reward’s cabinet. We have several contests and events throughout the year that all patients can participate in.
Read on to see how the Combs Colts and patients in full treatment can earn Combs Bucks to buy rewards. Below is a list of awards and how many Combs Bucks each award is worth.
