If I post a photo of a diseased tooth, Facebook blocks the image and posts a graphic image warning
If I wanted to post a photo of two boxers covered in blood, looking a pair of roosters in a cockfight, well that's perfectly ok..
What a crazy world we live in

The harmful dental effects of va**ng

I used to feel guilty because I don't use bamboo handled toothbrushes but read this ...
Hello Recycle Hero!

We’ve been asked by a few Recycle Heroes about how to recycle bamboo. A lot of us made the switch to bamboo toothbrushes, for example, as it was advertised as the eco-friendly alternative to plastic. But how friendly is it?

A product may be labelled as "bamboo" but contains a significant amount of plastic. If you’re looking for such a product, look to see if it’s 100% bamboo. If it’s been mixed with plastic or chemicals, you can’t put it in the compost bin. Right now, we are not aware of anywhere in Australia that recycles bamboo products. (If you do, let us know!

Recipes for DIY teeth whitening preparations are popping up online. But are they safe?

please consider bidding for this Australian cricket piece of history

A rare opportunity to HELP the Timorese people AND own a piece of AUSTRALIAN CRICKET memorabilia

The Aussie cricket team, which is currently touring India, appears to be reinvigorated. Some argue that it’s down to the leadership of Steve Smith, the team’s current captain.

Our mission continues to improve Timor’s oral health by providing dental services to remote communities and mentoring Timorese health workers.

For our 20th anniversary, Steve has kindly donated a personally-signed cricket bat to raise funds for the Dental Program.

The last Hurrah

I will be working in the CBD from Wednesday 8th March, only a day a week unless I get busy. I know this wont suit everyone, and I am sorry about that, but the time has come when I have to start thinking about doing other things, besides putting my hands into mouths! It's a beautiful modern practice and I hope to be there for quite some time!
