November 2014: Tips, eNews and More!
 
It's November! How did that happen? Every year seems to fly by and as soon as November begins, we start hearing holiday music on the radio. The days get shorter and even though we're still (hopefully) at least a month away from snow, people begin to prepare for winter hibernation.

You should enjoy the month as best you can, and there are still plenty of good weather days to enjoy before the chill really starts.

Is it time for a cleaning or to have your dental work completed? Many dental plans are based on the calendar year, so your benefits may not roll over into the new year. It's a good idea to find time for a cleaning or checkup to ensure you get the most out of your plan. Call us today, or click here to request an appointment and we will find a time that fits your schedule.

Dr. Bulger and the Team at Museum Dental

   

Office News

 

It is a sad day at Museum Dental as we bid farewell to Dr. Bulger's assistant, Shannon. Shannon has been part of our family for a very long time, however, she has decided to make a life-altering change and move to Alberta.

We wish her the very best and she will be dearly missed.

On a much more positive note, we would like to welcome to our team of professionals Athena and Maryam our newest members to our assisting department.


Dental Care for Kids!

 
Proper oral hygiene, even from the early stages of a child's life, helps contribute to a life time of oral health. We recommend cleaning your child's mouth and gums twice daily (you can use a clean washcloth or specially purposed finger covering that you can buy at most pharmacies), to remove particles and bacteria as well as to create a comfort level. We recommend introducing a soft bristle toothbrush from the very first tooth.

Did you know that tooth decay is more common in children than hay fever and asthma?

Teeth generally begin to erupt at around 4 months of age and usually continue through their 3rd year. Teeth erupting can often cause discomfort making your little one quite irritable. Teething causes tender gums and can be frustrating for a young child who has few options for expressing their discomfort. While teething may be a rite of passage that we have all gone through, there is no reason not to make the process a little easier. If your little one is teething, ask us about options to soothe their gums.

Once a child starts teething, the importance of maintaining oral hygiene becomes even more essential.

Apple Berry Crisp

 
We've all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Yet many of us skip this meal or try to replace it with a prepackaged breakfast or power bar. While these bars offer a high level of convenience they also offer a high level of sugar and calories.

This month's recipe is full of fiber, vitamins, antioxidants and is low in sugar. It can be enjoyed for breakfast, dessert or a midday snack. It will also stay for a few days if covered and refrigerated allowing you to make it on the weekend and enjoy it for the first few days of the work week.

Apple Berry Crisp

Filling:
  • 6-8 McIntosh or Golden Delicious Apples
  • 8 ounces fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of cardamom
  • 1/2 cup apple juice mixed with 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder (this acts like corn starch)
