After all the studying, we have finally successfully completed our sedation course it was a great pleasure meeting dentists from all different regions of BC. Even though we were all in different stages of our careers, periodontist, ex-Canadian Dental Association president, general dentists, we thoroughly enjoyed each other's company, and learning together social distancingly With sedation, we can now finally make dental anxiety a thing of the past! Feel free to inquire what dental sedation can do for you Also, hope everyone had a great Halloween and are enjoying their treats responsibly

There's finally snow on the ground so thought it's a good chance to stay in and get some violin in Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Stay warm and stay safe

Some people would consider their wedding day to be the biggest day in their life, and some might consider the birth of their first child or the birth of their first grand child . For me, I think the day when you can interpret ECG and knowing your heart is still running smoothly can be pretty satisfying too In the meantime, have a great Thanksgiving everyone! This year has been a roller-coaster , I'm sure there are lots we all have to be thankful for hope the fall is treating you well

Last week was a busy one! A week full of patients plus three straight days of continuous education in Vancouver... But the neck pillow, being able to see friends and the complimentary lunches definitely made things better The Vancouver was really the big smokes at first from the local and the fires from our neighbors down south; thankfully the rain eventually cleaned the air up, and we were finally able to see a bit of the blue sky and the sun

Case of the week: a nine year old diabetic patient presented with toothaches. Clinical examination and radiograhs reveals several heavily decayed baby teeth. Due to the unrestorabilities, these teeth unfortunately had to be extracted but the patient was very brave and didn't even budge, the grown-up teeth are also already observable on the radiograhs more importantly, the patient and the parents were also educated the impact of diabetes can have on teeth; furthermore, the...y were also instructed the importance of rinsing mouth after sugar ingestion, to prevent low blood sugar from his diabetic control Lesson from this case: conditions that seemed so unrelated to dentistry, like diabetes, can still have a significant impact on your teeth consult your dentist to make sure your health conditions, life styles, hobbies and medications don't negatively affect your health. Prevention is always better than cure See more
