Out in the Community!

February is National Children's Dental Health Month!  In efforts to improve our community's oral health, Dr. Varughese and Dr. Dhake have not only been treating patients in the office, but also spreading the message good oral health through community groups. 

Dr. Varughese provided clients of the Midwest Brain Injury Clubhouse an oral health presentation with tips on better brushing, flossing and diet recommendations.  The group had some great questions regarding dry mouth from medications and when to visit the dentist.  She looks forward to spending more time with the Clubhouse members and would like to thank Renata Slayton for the opportunity.

Dr. Dhake recently visited two sites of Gads Hill Center and shared tips and tools to 70 kids ages 5 to 12 years old on good oral hygiene and importance of visiting the dentist.  The kids practiced on model teeth flossing techniques and got to feel different dental instruments used at the office.  Thanks to the team at Gads Hill for the opportunity.  We look forward to working with them in the future.

We are Continuing to Grow! 

We are excited to welcome our newest dental assistant Sayde Cazares!  She will be with us a couple days a week making sure our patients continue to have the best experience.  We look forward to introducing you to her at your next visit.

We had a successful candy drive for Operation Gratitude.  With tremendous help and support from New Beginnings Childcare and St. Jerome School, we collected 135 pounds of candy and supplies!  We are proud to support our troops and provide them smiles with these small treats. Thank you again for those who came and supported us!

Use it or Lose it!

There are less than 50 days until the end of the year!  Are you using your dental insurance to the fullest extent?  Have you gotten at least two cleanings this year?  Give us a call today to set up an appointment to take care of your smile.  Our evenings and Saturdays are filling up very fast.

Keep Our Community Warm During the Winter Months

We will be holding a clothing drive in our office from November 22nd through December 11th.  We will be welcoming slightly used coats, hats, gloves, and other pieces of clothing. All the clothes will be donated to Casa Catalina, a local charity group that provides clothing, food and other services to our local community.

What Are You Thankful For?

Bring your child to our office to color a fall leaf and write in what they are thankful for.  We are posting these beautiful works of art on our office walls to show what we are all thankful for. 

We Are Thankful for You!

We are thankful for your smiles and visits. We appreciate the opportunity to do what we love- help you and your family be your best. We wish you and your family the very best during this fall season.  We look forward to seeing you soon!

Statistics show that each year more than 3.5 million children, 14 years of age and younger suffer injuries while playing sports or participating in recreational activities, and many of these injuries involve the teeth, mouth and face.  Using any mouthguard for protection is step in the right direction.

However, “off the shelf” mouthguards may be uncomfortable making it harder to breath easily and therefore being discarded or used less frequently. The dentist can custom build a mouthguard, fitted to your teeth and gums, providing maximum comfort and extra protection.  Call us to learn more about a custom-made sports mouthguard for your child.
