With the school year starting, now’s a great time to reevaluate the nutritional content of your children’s school lunches. Although water is the best choice, there are lots of sugar-free choices that are delicious and won’t fill your kid’s up with empty calories. Their teeth will benefit and they’ll have more hunger for the food you packed for them. Here are some examples. Wishing everyone a great school year….

It’s terrible that this needs to be a discussion with your kids but it is so important!!! Practice with them and help protect their innocence…

No one wants to imagine their child being targeted. And you don’t want to burden them with fears. But giving kids the tools to spot warning signs and problematic behaviors can help keep them safe. Most importantly, keep the conversation going.

How exciting!!! The snow has melted and we can see the ground again!
Suddenly 50°F feels amazing, but beware!!! This is prime season for dental injuries for kids because of fine gravel and debris that bicycle tires can slide on, and sidewalk and driveway pavement that has shifted or buckled, creating new hazards to trip on. Hoping your kids can enjoy the warm moments with no dental injuries!!!

Wishing you and your family and friends a very happy Thanksgiving full of love. This is our first Thanksgiving since the passing of our beloved coworker Patty. Although we think about her every day and she is missed just terribly, I can’t help but to be thankful to have known someone so kind and so genuine for so long….
