Dentist is the #1 Job in 2015!
Dentistry as a profession ranks highly, according to a US News report this year.
We, as a profession, take pride in helping our communities and states in achieving better health through optimized oral health.
Your smile is such a crucial part of who you are, how you define yourself and how the world defines you as well!
Here's to a great new year, and hopefully a great new smile for all of our patients!

Why you should say  'NO' to strip mall dentists!

Your family deserves better than a corporation making choices regarding your health.
This article highlights the growing number of concerns the public, our state representatives, and our communities have about 'strip mall dentist chains.'
Please read this short article to understand more about the reasons our Texas Senate has been investigating and disciplining these 'Doc in the Box' assembly lines.

Root Canal Treatments at Sea?

http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-30043875
Apparently blocks of 'gutta percha' a rubberized material used in Root Canal Treatments have been washing up seaside for forty years...and all from the same shipwreck!
I hope this assures patients that their Dentist is using a long lasting material to fix those bad teeth!

OK, well it somewhat out ranks Texas

Not good news for us south of the Red River!  Oklahomans see the dentist more than Texans, as described in this report.   Oral health relates to overall health  more than we commonly think to be true.  See a dentist regularly to ensure longevity, and of course, improve that winning smile!
