Wedding Hairstyles

When you choose your wedding hairstyles there are some point to consider. First, what type of gown you are going to wear? Is it formal or casual, formal or grandeur?  Then, the length of your hair and whether you would want veil or head piece. Would you like and up do or you want to flaunt your million dollar hair to be your only jewelery? There are a myriad of choices for you to choose.

Most fun part of my job.


Doing these kinds of cases is a really fun part of my job.
The patient went through an initial cosmetic bonding process in the 70's.
Since then the bonding has discolored and chipped.
He decided it was time for a change.

Before
Half way there.
After!!
Helping people feel great about their teeth is something that I love to do.

This is all bonding.
No Shots.
No pain.
Same cost as fillings.

I told you so!!

There is something that I hate to see and hear at my office.
It is to see a parent tell a child "I told you to brush your teeth"
while they are shaking their finger at them.

This phrase is said by parents whose children have cavities
and will need to get their teeth filled.

Now, I am a parent of 5 children myself.
And I am all for natural consequences.
If I tell you to bring a jacket and you don't and you get cold,
well then that is the child's fault and a little cold air won't do any harm.
But the whole scene in the dental office is different.
If we are putting fillings into permanent teeth, then your child
is bound to need fairly extensive work on these teeth later in life.

A tooth that has no filling is MUCH better of long term then
a tooth that has even a small filling that is placed very young.

I know dentistry does not seem like a serious health issue, but it can be.
Its like taking your kids to get immunized.
They cry and say they don't want to.
You then say, "Fine but you'll regret it."
Then 10 years down the road your kids gets some life threatening disease
and you just shake your finger and say "See. Told ya you should
have gotten those immunizations."

You would never do that.
Some things are just too important.
You force your kids to take vitamins.
You make them get their immunizations.

You SHOULD make them brush their teeth.
Either under your supervision or you do it for them when they are young.

Adventures in Greece: Ouzo Candy

Γεια σας,
I've been dreaming about Greece a lot lately, I miss being there very much. I've been talking to friends I made there; making me miss it more!

So a little story from Athens;
Myself, my roommates, and a few girls from our program went shopping/exploring in the Monastiraki/Plaka area where we found a cute little shop pretty much geared towards tourists (as are many shops, but hey we had gifts to buy) and the woman that owned it was so sweet and genuine the second we started speaking to her in Greek (not that she wasn't nice before lol). When we would talk to people in Greek they generally, with the exception of one woman on the island, treated you like family (love).
Well this woman in all her sweetness gave us ouzo candy after the exchange of the usual pleasantries (where is your family from? the response of "I have a cousin there", where are you staying? the response "my family has a house there". Don't get me wrong I love these pleasantries).
Yes it did taste like ouzo, just no where near as strong lol..very licorice-y of course. Not something I would sit there and snack on but I'm not a big candy person anyway.
The sweet woman then proceeded to give us directions to good shops & such and offered us a discount on some jewelry because we were Greek-American students, which by the way got us some nice discounts along the way!

-For those of you still curious about the not-so-friendly woman from the island, not a whole lot to the story but she worked at the local market and I always spoke to her in Greek (except when I couldn't think of the words for laundry detergent) and I always wished her well when I left; example: at the beginning of the week "Kali Evdomada" (Have a good week) and such. When I said that she went "Hmph"... hmph? ummm I was confused... though I do understand she sees a lot of tourists and they probably annoy her but I was not a tourist per say & I've been told my accent is good so it couldn't have been that bad. This bothered me because I had to shop there for 3 weeks and every time same deal..oh well!(I don't mean to highlight her she was a very small encounter in my amazing time there)
Besides her all the people I encountered were very friendly and enjoyable.  
More little stories an pictures to come.

-Here is a song my sister and I have been liking a lot lately, enjoy!






The lyric "Heaven doesn't seem so far away now" sure fits this picture, no?
 
 
Ellada, always be my favorite place on earth.
:)
