Believe it or not the water that is expelled from non-treated dental lines can be upwards of 1 MILLION cfu/ml!

Wednesday, August 5, 2015. The Story Behind Orthodontic Retainers. Why are retainers required after orthodontic treatment? How long should someone wear retainers? What do our retainers look like?

Sunday, February 1, 2015. The key to effective leadership in business. Understand the environment in which you operate. Don’t expect that you can walk into any situation and that your presence alone will be enough to solve issues within a business.
