We hope everyone is enjoying April and all that spring has to offer. Our staff is filled with crafty hands and decorative talent so we love any chance to spruce up the office for a new season.
If you’re like us, you might still be nibbling on a few Easter candies here and there. Visiting any of our offices will easily reveal what our favorite treat is: chocolate kisses! After each visit, our patients can indulge in a complimentary kiss at check out. We’re only human and who doesn’t love chocolate, right? After your treat, we encourage you to visit the tooth brushing station to turn that sweet tooth into a clean tooth. Eliminating the desire for sweets is impossible, so we believe good oral hygiene and indulging in moderation goes a long way when it comes to healthy teeth.
Did you know that April 22nd is Earth Day? Our world contains a limited amount of resources so it’s up to us to show compassion for our planet and the generations to come! We like to live by the wise words of Dr. Joel’s mom: “wherever you are visiting, leave that place better than the way you found it.” To stay environmentally friendly at the office, we recycle all shredded paper materials and disposable toothbrushes. A simple way to conserve resources at home is by limiting the use of water while brushing your teeth. It’s so easy to leave the faucet running while you’re hard at work, but this wastes a lot of water. Instead, fill a cup halfway and dip your toothbrush into it to wet it. The rest can be used as a rinse when you’re done.
Speaking of the planet, we love any chance to get outside and enjoy the beauty this world has to offer. Spending a nice spring day with our family and friends is so rewarding. Not only do we get to spend time with people we care about, we get an opportunity to get a tan, too! We love trying out new activities like paddle boarding, playing a game of tag or even just enjoying a new book outside. The long-lasting memories and bonds we create with our loved ones are something we can always cherish.
We hope you enjoy the rest of April and get outside to enjoy that sunshine! We can’t wait to see you in the office soon.
