Element Orlando provides guests unparalleled access to the world’s top theme parks, leading convention center, and is directly adjacent to the mixed-use retail and entertainment district, Icon Park.”

— Jason Anderson, Co-CEO of Crescent

FORT WORTH, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, September 14, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Through its investment vehicle – GP Invitation Fund III, LP – Crescent Real Estate LLC (Crescent) acquired the Element Orlando Universal Blvd., a 165-key hotel operated under a franchise agreement with Marriott International. Located just outside the confines of the mixed-use development known as Icon Park, Element Orlando hotel guests have immediate access to 20 acres of entertainment opportunities.

Comprised of more than 40 restaurants and retail outlets, Icon Park is an open-air complex that is strategically located along Orlando’s International Drive. The 11-mile thoroughfare plays host to Orlando’s primary attractions and is home to some of the world’s top theme parks, the nation’s leading convention center, and the 270-acre Lockheed Martin regional headquarters.

Additionally, on a site adjacent to the Element Orlando hotel, Universal Studio’s 750-acre development known as “Epic Universe” will have a resounding impact on the local economy upon its completion in 2025. While the new theme park will include three separate hotel offerings, the Element Orlando hotel will hold a prominent value proposition in comparison to the room rates commanded inside Epic Universe.

Perfectly suited for this location, Element by Westin, is a modern and environmentally conscious hotel brand designed for today’s healthy, active traveler, catering to both short and longer stays. Rooms feature fully equipped kitchens in spacious studios and suites, spa-inspired bathrooms, and signature Heavenly Beds which provide all guests with serene and comfortable stays. Given its recent delivery to the market, the Element Orlando hotel is one of the newest select service hotels in the surrounding submarket.

As the market fundamentals of Orlando continue to strengthen, the second-largest hospitality market in the country looks to enjoy the tailwinds of the strong tourism industry alongside the reemergence of international travel. The city has been the number one travel destination for close to a decade and has made a quick recovery from the COVID era that hindered the tourism sector. Orlando’s economy extends beyond the tourism industry, with the professional and business services sector employing approximately 251,000 jobs. The area is home to headquarters of more than 60 major domestic companies and hosts operations for over 150 international companies. The Element Orlando Universal Blvd’s superior quality and location is poised to benefit from the continued strong demographic trends in Orlando.

Jason Anderson, Co-CEO of Crescent stated, “Crescent is extremely pleased to announce the addition of the Element Orlando to our growing upscale select-service hotel portfolio. Building a portfolio of exceptional select-service hotels is one of Crescent’s core hospitality strategies and we can think of no better way than to expand our Element ownership following our recent acquisition of the Element Basalt-Aspen.”

“Element Hotels stand out in the select-service space in terms of its high-quality, contemporary design, and we look forward to capitalizing on an asset with minimal capital requirements in such a flourishing area,” Anderson said. “Our prime location along International Drive provides our guests with unparalleled access to the world’s top theme parks, leading convention center, and is directly adjacent to the renowned mixed-use retail and entertainment district known as Icon Park.”

Crescent has engaged HEI Hotels & Resorts, a nationally recognized hotel management firm with extensive experience managing hotels of all categories throughout the United States.

Open Bite Case Before and After

Open Bite Case Before and After

PARIS, ÎLE-DE-FRANCE, FRANCE , September 14, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Le traitement orthodontique est depuis longtemps une préoccupation pour les patients jeunes et plus âgés, tournant autour d’une question intemporelle et stéréotypée: « Quand vais-je enlever mon appareil orthodontique? » Cette question a historiquement eu des connotations négatives, créant un sentiment d’appréhension et de fardeau psychologique pour les patients. Les traitements orthodontiques étaient perçus comme ayant duré de 2 à 3 ans, accompagnés d’inconfort et de douleur.

Imaginez que quelqu’un vous informe maintenant que le traitement orthodontique peut souvent être terminé en seulement 100 jours, ce qui est une période assez courte. Cela peut être difficile à croire, et même si vous le faisiez, vous vous attendriez probablement à ce que l’expérience soit douloureuse et même angoissante.

Cependant, il est important de reconnaître que la plupart des processus de traitement liés à la santé dans le corps ne durent pas des années. Par exemple, une blessure guérit généralement en quelques jours et une jambe cassée ne prend pas plus de 60 à 90 jours pour guérir. De même, lors du mouvement des dents, lorsque les dents se déplacent et se réalignent, l’os qui les entoure subit un processus similaire à la déconstruction (par rupture) et à la reconstruction d’une jambe cassée.

Alors, pourquoi le mouvement orthodontique prenait-il traditionnellement des années à compléter? La réponse réside dans le processus naturel de l’éruption dentaire. Lorsque les dents apparaissent dans la bouche pendant la jeunesse, ce processus d’éruption les conduit à leurs positions finales dans l’arcade dentaire. Idéalement, si tout est parfait, aucune autre intervention n’est nécessaire. Cependant, si les dents font éruption de manière incorrecte, les faisant basculer, se chevaucher ou les espacer de manière irrégulière, cela peut entraîner une orthodontose, ce qui a un impact sur l’os alvéolaire.

C’est là que la technologie de pointe comme Fastbraces entre en jeu. Inventée par le professeur d’orthodontie et orthodontiste spécialiste Anthony Viazis, de Dallas, Texas, États-Unis, Fastbraces Technology est une innovation américaine qui révolutionne l’orthodontie depuis 30 ans. Il offre aux dentistes et aux orthodontistes les moyens de redresser les dents rapidement, en toute sécurité et efficacement, en complétant souvent les traitements en environ 100 jours. La technologie a acquis une popularité mondiale, s’adressant à la fois aux enfants et aux adultes, et a traité avec succès des milliers de patients dans plus de 50 pays.

La technologie Fastbraces, soutenue par trois nouveaux brevets, utilise des systèmes de boîtiers orthodontiques performants (appareils orthoangulaires) qui favorisent l’orthoéruption, un mouvement similaire à l’éruption naturelle des dents. En utilisant un seul fil carré, la technologie permet le mouvement simultané de la racine (partie invisible de la dent qui se trouve dans l’os alvéolaire) et de la couronne (partie visible) vers leurs positions finales, ce qui entraîne des dents droites et une morphologie osseuse alvéolaire restaurée.

Un avantage supplémentaire de la technologie Fastbraces est la réduction de l’inconfort ressenti par les patients pendant le processus de traitement, l’inventeur prescrivant rarement des analgésiques.

Le Dr Evangelos Viazis, frère d’Anthony Viazis et diplômé de la faculté dentaire de l’Université d’Athènes en Grèce, a joué un rôle central dans l’introduction de la technologie Fastbraces en Europe en 2000. Il a rapidement connu le succès, traitant des patients avec des résultats impressionnants et évitant souvent le besoin d’extractions dentaires. Le Dr Viazis a décidé de se concentrer uniquement sur l’orthodontie, ouvrant plusieurs cabinets à Athènes et limitant sa pratique à la technologie transformatrice Fastbraces. Il est l’auteur du livre « Fastbraces Greece, Atlas of Clinical Cases », et sa page Facebook d’orthodontie professionnelle compte plus de 120 000 suiveurs.

En tant que membre de l’équipe de soutien international d’Orthoworld, le Dr Evangelos Viazis apporte son expertise, conseillant et éduquant les dentistes du monde entier sur l’utilisation efficace des technologies Fastbraces. De plus, il a été membre suppléant du conseil consultatif du doyen de la Harvard University School of Dentistry, représentant Fastbraces Technology et son impact profond dans le domaine de l’orthodontie.

Ses cas ont été publiés et présentés dans le monde entier comme des exemples de ce que la technologie Fastbraces peut réaliser pour les patients, en particulier dans le traitement des cas squelettiques sans avoir besoin d’une chirurgie de la mâchoire – une approche révolutionnaire jusqu’alors inconnue dans le domaine de l’orthodontie.
