My Dentists asks: What are your plans for Memorial Day weekend?

The unofficial kickoff to summer—Memorial Day weekend—is a time Americans stop and remember those men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom over the course of American history.

Memorial Day also marks the unofficial start of the summer, and for many of our patients, getting out of town for three days after being cooped up in the office or in the classroom is sweet relief. At My Dentists, we also know Memorial Day weekend is ripe for travel. After all, it’s a season of vacations, adventures and great memories.

What about you? What are you and your family up to this Memorial Day weekend? Whether you are headed to a barbecue, a camping trip, or hitting the open roads with family this weekend, we want to know all about it!

Our entire team at My Dentists wish you a nice and relaxing (and safe) Memorial Day weekend!

The team at My Dentists, supporting National Physical Fitness and Sports Month

Did you know the month of May is National Physical Fitness and Sports Month? In 1983, President Ronald Reagan encouraged Americans everywhere to include more physical activity into their lives, and - wouldn't you know it - the reminder is even more significant today as folks are distracted more and more by TV, social networking and working more hours. Living an active lifestyle can - and does - improve physical and mental health, productivity and overall well-being. The best part? It doesn’t have to take a lot of time!

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has provided these public health guidelines, which call for people to exercise one hour every day of moderate intensity physical activity (such as playing sports or brisk walking) or one hour and 15 minutes of vigorous activity (jogging, dancing and jumping rope).

At My Dentists, our staff and Drs. Yeager, Michalski and Pinnavaia encourage our patients to exercise or participate in sports. However, we want to remind you to always wear a mouth guard or other forms of mouth or facial protection when doing so. To learn more about how often you should exercise, we recommend you check out these helpful tips, courtesy of our friends at the American Heart Association.

Happy Friday and enjoy your weekend!

David Letterman needed CEREC

Our staff just came across a great video with jokester David Letterman talking about his experience with a dentist. In the video, Letterman jokes about his frustration with his dentist and the hole in his mouth "the size of an above-ground pool." The video shows exactly why CEREC single-visit restoration is the way to go. Had Letterman used CEREC, he would have saved himself time and pain.

CEREC is a technology for restoring damaged teeth, and this restoration can be completed in a single visit to My Dentists. It makes your teeth stronger and more beautiful — all while keeping your teeth looking natural. The restoration is metal-free and the high-grade ceramic material is compatible with the natural tissue found in your mouth. This is the finest restorative material available today, all in one appointment.

To learn more about CEREC, and dentistry in Charlotte, feel free to give us a call! We hope you enjoyed this clip! Letterman at his finest!
