Mother's Day is an opportunity to honor all those who embody the spirit of motherhood in our lives. Moms enhance our world with their love, guidance, and unwavering support. It's the perfect time to let the mothers in your life know how much you value their care and wisdom.

For those who nurture, protect, and inspire us, our love extends beyond just one day. If you're remembering a special person today, may your heart be filled with joyful memories.

Wishing you a special Mother's Day!

We are all saddened by this news but it made the national news in the dental world. Even though our health care system separates the mouth from the rest of the body, we know that oral health is health.

After visiting a dentist with unusual oral symptoms, Jeriann Ritter was referred to clinicians who diagnosed her with bulbar-onset ALS.

For April Fools Day, the staff had a good one and it looks as though everyone was in on it!

It was reported that a “mouse” was caught in the basement under a trash can and while Dr. P ordered mouse traps, Dr. B thought he could handle it. Brett, our supplies rep, was there to help. Turns out it was a different kind of “mouse”.

It’s the health of your mouth related to the health of your body? Absolutely…and testing your saliva may be in the near future of your dental visits.

“Systemic conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and Alzheimer’s disease can share pathways, representing how processes occurring in the mouth can influence overall health and vice versa.”
