Is sending flowers appropriate as a gift to an orthodontic office for the completion of my treatment?

That would be a very nice gesture. I%26#039;m sure they will appreciate it.

Very nice, but very %26quot;over the top%26quot; they should send YOU something in thanks for the thousands of dollars you and your insurance paid. LOL Report It

Reply:Only if you want to ask your dentist out on a date.


Other than that, a simple thank-you card will do.
Reply:no, not at all i think that is a lovely gesture and will really make someones day go for it!
Reply:maybe...it really depends on the situation
Reply:I%26#039;m assuming you%26#039;re in the States in which case you probably paid through the nose for the treatment. So: no thank you required, unless there are extenuating circumstances. It is a nice gesture though; just don%26#039;t feel obliged.
Reply:Do you not think he makes enough money? Thank him and refer him to others.
Reply:I think it%26#039;s a wonderful idea! The staff will appreciate your gesture tremendously. You are very thoughtful. Great idea. It%26#039;s much better than candy. My orthodontist often scolded me on what candy and junk food I ate while undergoing treatment. So, in keeping with good dental health, flowers are best.
Reply:Yes it is appropriate.
Reply:I%26#039;m sure that it would be much appreciated by everybody that works in the dentist office. It would also make them feel appreciated.
Reply:I am sure they will love it. I was at my dentist%26#039;s office when a bouquet came as a thank you from a patient. The office went wild the girls were so happy so I bet the same thing will happen if you do it. How thoughtfull of you
Reply:No, they should send you flowers for giving them the business.
Reply:They%26#039;d probably rather you paid your bill.


Seriously, it isn%26#039;t considered necessary to send a gift to a professional office on completion of treatment. Nor do you tip your orthodontist, or the receptionist etc. Just flash them that great smile!
Reply:Absolutely not. They should be sending you flowers for all the money they have from you.
Reply:yes, but i think there are other things that would be more appreciated........i think a gift of food would be better....some baked goods, candies, etc.....whenever i wanted to say thank you to an entire office in the past i%26#039;ve given krispy kreme donuts
