Lots to smile about this Christmas. For my grand cousin Ciara Grace: All I want for Christmas are my two front teeth! We wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!

Dr. John Kois, who is an incredible teacher and mentor says it so well.

Happy Hallowe’en. My relative Scott Broad is a master pumpkin carver. One tooth for our smiles!

Fit testing for N95 masks is quite a process! We completed this today at Elm Tree Dental Clinic.

To all of our patients that we love, our new normal when we open for elective dental procedures: ...Know that you are missed and we are ever so grateful for your return. ...Know that our office has always exceeded the guidelines for infection control and we will continue that for COVID-19 and beyond.... ...Know that we may choose to open for elective dental procedures at a date later than what the province is allowing, to give us time to prepare our team and office for you. ...Know the importance of coming alone, or having your companion or driver wait for you in the car; extra people in the dental office compromises everyone. ...Know that when you arrive you will probably need to wait until we give you the go ahead before entering the building. Having your cell phone handy in the car will help considerably. ...Know that we are thrilled to see you, but we can not hug. Your presence is the best hug ever. ...Know that your health is our biggest concern. we may ask those with high risk factors to wait before scheduling. ...Know that initially, your appointment may take more time. Your patience is appreciated. ...Know that your understanding as we rework the schedule to accommodate those patients with the most urgent dental needs, means the world to us. Imagine rescheduling three months of appointment to ... we will get there! ...Know that ... above all else, we are excited about your arrival at our office and together we can make it the best appointment ever!!! I am looking forward to seeing you as much as I was my little buddy in the Dominican! Dr. Ken Hawthorn

As a Kois Centre trained dentist, I have appreciated the amazing leadership and mentoring that Dr. Kois has provided. This guidance gives us a sound foundation to move forward. Thank you John!

Although distancing and circumstances divide families, I hope that this Easter weekend warms your hearts and brings us all closer together. Happy Easter!

Dominican Dental Mission: Such a rewarding experience to help others and share love!

Helping others is a wonderful thing to do!

Excited to be returning to the Dominican Republic on a dental mission trip with the Crown Council and Esperanza. Julie and I are returning this year in March, 11 years after our initial mission trip.

People are special and we value ....
