Is Visiting the Dentist the Same Around the World?

I see a lot of dental practices in the U.S. and have a pretty good grasp on the variation of services that are out there.

I came across the following press release for a new on-line appointment scheduling system that allows an email to be sent to patients who are in need of a visit inviting them to schedule an appointment.

Traditionally, people don’t like going to see the dentist. There is a lot of fear associated with visiting the dentist. Personally, I don’t get this, as I have always liked my dentist.

It's All In Where You Sit!

Over the 4th of July weekend, I took my niece to NYC for her 16th birthday. Now, we've been planning this trip for a while, and she really wanted to see the Yankees play the Red Sox in Yankee stadium before they tear it down at the end of the season. Let me say right up front that I'm not a baseball fan. I've always found the game to be about as exciting as watching golf or paint dry. I know, I know, people always tell me that it's better if you are at the game, but I've been to games before and… Continue

Lovely to meet you, on such a lovely morning in lovely Noblesville. I so appreciate all your info and insight. As you can see, I also appreciate the invite to Smaller Indiana, where I'm told I am now a Smoosier--although I'm really not a proficient nerd, I'll try to keep up.
Thanks!

All existing dates begin at 10 am from English Foundation Building, northeast corner of North & Alabama St. Tour of the entire trail takes 2 hours, depending on size of the group. Hope that helps.
