March is National Nutrition Month
The theme for 2012 is "Get the real deal on your meal". Proper
nutrition is integral to overall health and vitality. The foods you
choose literally affects your oral health from the moment you put
them in your mouth. Here are some popular nutrition myths that
Dietitians hear, and would love to dispel.
Reminder: If you will not be able to keep an appointment or need to reschedule an appointment, please let us know soon. We
require two business days notice so that we can offer your scheduled
appointment to another patient.
Have a fun and safe month,
Team at Haas Dental Centre

Are repeat visits to our offices unlikely to fit your schedule?
You can often eliminate embarrassing spaces without the intrusive nature of braces or other costly, time consuming procedures. Of the several procedural options available to you, one that may fit your budget, time constraints and needs is called bonding.
Bonding has become a very common procedure and can usually be completed in one, short, comfortable visit.
