February is National Children’s Dental Health Month!
National Children’s Dental Health Month is an observance that brings together thousands of dedicated dental professionals, healthcare providers, and educators to promote the benefits of good oral health to children, their caregivers, teachers and many others. Many of our patients are under the assumption that we do not treat children, which could not be farther from the truth. Dr. Vander Vliet and our hygienists are wonderful with kids, and would welcome them into our practice. So, if you are thinking about scheduling an appointment for your child or children, please do! We would love to meet them!
It’s Just a Matter of Time
Did you notice the CEREC machine in our hallway? That machine mills your crown while you wait. With computer assisted dentistry, we have eliminated the need for messy impressions, temporary crowns and a return visit to have the actual crown placed. We fabricate your crown in our office while you enjoy a movie, music or just some well deserved quiet time. Everybody is busy, and by removing a second visit, (or a return visit to recement the temporary crown that insists on coming off at the worst time) we are able to remove some of the extra busy-ness from your life.
A Great Reason!
A great reason to make and keep your hygiene appointments is the warranty. Dr. Vander Vliet warranties his restorations for 5 years as long as your hygiene appointments are kept on a six-month basis (or more frequently if needed).
We Are ‘Timely’
We get a lot of compliments on how our office runs on time. It is not always easy, and it is not always perfect, but it is one of our top priorities. Your time is valuable, and we appreciate that. In order to continue our efficiency, kindly give us two business days if you need to make any changes to your appointment.
Fun Fact
Teeth contain stem cells… researchers are currently using dental stem cells to try and regrow human teeth. But don’t let that stop you from caring for the ones you already have!
