On October 5th our staff spent the day volunteering their time and skills at our Annual Smile Day. We provided free dental care to over 30 children in need, which included 161 procedures like comprehensive exams, digital x-rays, sealants, fluoride treatments, and composite resin fillings.

Support Prayers & Poinsettias' Scholarships

This holiday season consider supporting a very special charity founded by our own Mary Lynn Beatty, R.H.D. As a fundraiser every year her non-profit sells beautiful poinsettias which come in red, white, pink, red with white specks, or a new option called splash. Each 7-inch foil-covered pot has 2 plants and between 10 to 12 blooms, and is $20. Order by Friday, November 25th, and pick up on December 3rd at our Souderton Office. Download order form. 

 

Prayers and Poinsettias is a faith-based non-profit organization. It was inspired by a mother's love and her desire to insure her children's education. Their mission is to provide scholarship funds for children whose mothers have breast cancer. Any questions, contact Mary Lynn, visit their facebook page or website.       

Just a reminder that flexible spending accounts, and most dental insurance, renew annually. So if you have any dental care needs and have not yet hit your benefit limit consider making an appointment before the end of the year. Give us a call and we would be glad to discuss any financial questions you may have.

In just a few short days the kids will be going door to door, marching in Halloween parades, having fun with their friends in their costumes, and perhaps even stock-piling treats for a few weeks to come.

This holiday can be a challenge for kids' teeth, but here are a few tips to keep a healthy smile; 1. Avoid hard candies that stay in your mouth a long time, or sticky candies that cling to your teeth. 2. Drink more water, preferably fluoridated water, to rinse out your mouth 3. Chew sugarless gum after meals or treats to increase saliva and neutralize acids from dental plaque. 4. Here's the most important, you guessed it, brush your teeth twice a day, and make sure to floss every day to remove plaque from under your gum line and between teeth.
