Happy Sunday to all. I received a few great dental articles in my inbox today and I thought I would share!
No Pepsi or Coke in US Schools!
I totally agree with this article about no pop in schools. Pop is like battery acid for the teeth and also very bad for overall health. This study that recently came out about pop is even one more reason to avoid it.
Drinking pop linked to increased risk of pancreatic cancer
We had another great Child and Toddler Day at the Dentist yesterday! Many amazing little children came out to have their first experience at the dentist and what a fantastic day it was! We counted and cleaned many little teeth, snacked on teeth-healthy snacks and explored the dental world of Mr. Slurpy, Mr. Ticklebrush, Mr.Mirror and Mr.Toothcounter. Overall we were able to examine all of the children's teeth and provide a positive first experience at the dentist! Thank you for everyone who came out to participate and my amazing dental team who I couldn't do this without!
Our next Child and Toddler Day at the Dentist is Saturday April 24, 2010 and Saturday June 26th which are close to fully booked.
As well, we will be offering a free program for all adults in the Toronto area May 8, 2010. Our brand new Oral Cancer Screening Program which is sponsered by Zila, Zila-Vizilite-Oral Cancer Detection. This program will strive to educate the public on the prevalence of oral cancer in the population. Oral cancer is showing up in all age groups, not just those who smoke or drink. It is imperative that all age groups be screened for oral lesions and oral cancer because early detection is the key to positive outcomes. Give us a call to book your free oral cancer screening and detection appointment at Stonebrook Dental at (416)636-4227.
Have a great day!
Nathan

I clicked on the dental articles that you've shared and it's really interesting. Some of my friends love drinking pop and most of them noticed their discolored teeth. It's scary that pop cola can also cause pancreatic cancer. I remember my sister's Greenville, South Carolina dentistry practitioner who mentioned about this health problem. Surely, most of the dentists Greer, South Carolina area practically share the same caveat to their patients.
Thanks for sharing, Dr. Nathan!
