Dr. Kristen, Alyssa, and Claire traveled to Houston last week to further our education on sleep apnea - and the oral appliances that can help.

We are excited to begin offering this service VERY SOON for those who might be affected or are wondering if they have sleep disordered breathing of some sort. I always find it eye opening how big of a difference restful sleep can make on your entire body and well being.

Please call us if you would like more information - and please let others know they are welcome to reach out as well.

While we were gone, the rest of our amazing HLD team held down the fort - we are so thankful for them 💛

PS - who has been to a Buc-ee’s?! This was apparently the only photo we took together the entire trip 😝 what an experience!!! (They had 104 gas pumps!!!)🦫

Hard to believe we get to see this 🦌 behind the office (and near so many major roads!)

Wishing you all a Happy Friday!!! And a successful back to school season for all who celebrate 📚

It’s sad that we live in a world this way, but if you ever receive anything from us that is surprising or you are unsure of - please call to confirm or send us a new message. We will never ask for specific information via email or send you anything without background context.

⭐️🤩How to smile when it’s Friday 🤩 ⭐️

Baby Viv has a lot of teeth now and is scheduled for her first visit soon! It’s recommended to have little ones in by the age of 1 or within 6 months of their first tooth. The goal is to get them comfortable, have fun, and allow us to check for any bigger issues 🦷

The office will be closed the week of August 3rd as we take some time to enjoy this beautiful Michigan weather with our families. We will return to the office on August 10th.

*if you are a patient of record, please call the office and follow the prompts to reach Dr. Kristen for any dental emergencies*

Life is always full of changes. We don’t always love changes in technology but we have tried to embrace it, where appropriate, without losing the human component of it.

Many of you know and love Mallory (She is coming up on her 11 year anniversary with us!) While she moved to Florida last year, we are so grateful we found a way to keep her in our lives (and yours!)

*I can assure you, she is indeed NOT working at the beach 🤣🌴 and Hannah is our in-person guru who always makes sure to keep Mallory in line*

At long last - the winner of our April Fool’s Dance contest is here!

Mallory (who works remotely for us in Florida) did the honors of selecting the winner 🤣

Congratulations, Mandi! Please stop by to get your $50 gas card. Thank you to all who participated, we truly enjoyed seeing everybody dancing their hearts out… or trying to 😉

Long before me, and even before Dr. Pirochta (she worked at the office Dr. Pirochta purchased- he likes to joke that she hired him!) Tammy was the administrative guru of Cosmetic and Family Dentistry of West Michigan (now known as Healthy Life Dentistry).

Many of you had the opportunity to interact, know, and be helped by Tammy for 20+ years. While I did not have the chance to work alongside Tammy, her legacy of loyalty, compassion, and a servant spirit lives on in those who did and those who knew her.

We are sending our love and prayers to the family and friends of Tammy; may the Angels welcome her to Paradise 🙏

Today and tomorrow, only - a little fun way to say "thank you" to our amazing patients
