What’s the Difference Between a Holistic Dentist and a General Dentist?
I’m confused about something. I told my sister I was looking for a general dentist and she said I should really be looking for a holistic dentist. She’s one of those people who (even though she doesn’t realize it) is always looking to show she knows more than you do. Because of that, I didn’t […]

Is mercury-free best for my kids?
I’m not really sure what to think about this whole mercury-free thing. I’ve had silver fillings all my life and they are completely fine. Now that I have kids, I’ve become more conscious about what they are exposed to – even down to the chemicals I use in our home. I guess it would make […]
