Zoom Whitening Give Away


This month, as a part of our continuing effort to give back to our patients and get them smiling more, we're giving away a Zoom Laser Whitening procedure. What is Zoom Laser Whitening? It's a chairside procedure done in our office that removes many of the stains and darkened colors that teeth take on with age. It's safe and effective -- and the whole thing is done in about an hour! You can even watch your favorite TV shows while it's being done. All recipients on our E-mail list are eligible!

Beauty Drinks -- Do They Deliver?

We sometimes get asked questions by patients that are outside of our normal dental expertise. Good questions, that, if we have an answer we're happy to share with patients and friends. But, if it's not our expertise, we need to research it for ourselves. One good place we like to look for unbiased information is WebMD. We find WebMD to be a credible source for unbiased writing and medicine that presents facts in an easy to understand manner.

We came across an article reviewed by Louise Chang, MD, that looks at the some of the claims of popular "Beauty Beverages." It's a short article that looks not just at these potions themselves but other things you should consider for your overall beauty and skin health. Check it out here, "The Truth About Beauty Beverages."
