West Chester PA Dental Office Announces 2nd Annual Halloween Candy Buyback for our Troops

• Candy Donated at our practice will be shipped to our Troops for the Holidays

Be sure to WATCH for Dr. Ron Briglia, 

and his Total Confidence Dentistry, West Chester, PA team

on Monday, October 29 at 9:30am on Fox 29 

and Thursday, November 1 at 11am on NDC Philadelphia Channel 10...

- For the second year in a row, Dr. Ron Briglia at Total Confidence Dentistry is hosting Halloween Candy Buyback to provide candy for our troops overseas during the holidays.

Total Confidence Dentistry is redefining the phrase "put your money where your mouth is." This Halloween, trick-or-treaters can bring their candy to Total Confidence Dentistry in West Chester and receive $1 per pound (up to 5 pounds) and receive cash for their candy along with a goody bag filled with coupons from local merchants.

Parents who bring their children also can sign up for a raffle to win gift cards, restaurant coupons and other items donated by local merchants. Visit the website to see supporting sponsors: www.TotalConfidenceDentistry.com.

"We know kids love candy, but all those sweets are a real hazard to their teeth," says Dr. Briglia. "We are offering kids a chance to ditch their excess candy. They can still have all the fun of trick-or-treating, and now their piggy banks will benefit as well."

Total Confidence Dentistry will send collected candy to Stockings for Soldiers (www.stockingsforsoldiers.org) and Operation Gratitude (www.operationgratitude.com), organizations that ship care packages to our U.S. Troops overseas to make their holidays a bit brighter.

According to a recent Ad Council Report, "dental decay is the most common chronic childhood disease with more than 16 million kids suffering from untreated tooth decay in the U.S. The mouth is the gateway to a person's overall health and an unhealthy mouth can be associated with obesity, diabetes and even heart disease. In the U.S., oral disease causes kids to miss 51 million school hours and their parents to lose 25 million work hours annually.”

"Visiting your dentist twice a year and brushing daily are great preventative measures, but doing away with excess sweets altogether would really give your teeth a healthy boost," says Dr. Briglia.

Candy will be collected at Total Confidence Dentistry, the office of Dr. Ron Briglia, in the Chester County Medical Bldg, 600 East Marshall Street, Suite 201, West Chester, Pa. on Thursday, Nov. 1 and Friday, Nov. 2 from 2:00 pm-7:00 pm. The candy must be unopened. Please no bites. It will then be shipped to our troops overseas. Also donations by WaWa stores, stop in at nearby WaWa stores for details.

Dr. Briglia and Total Confidence Dentistry thank families for their support. For more information, please contact Total Confidence Dentistry at 610-692-4440 or visit their website at TotalConfidenceDentistry.com.

Trust In Dentistry-Dentists: How-Where Do You Base Yours?

22 Years of Trusted Smiles

The trust patients place in Dr. Angela Ramirez is demonstrated in Brenda’s experience. Brenda, a model and comedian, had her first visit with Dr. Ramirez over 22 years ago for replacement of cosmetic bonding that failed to hide her tetracycline stained teeth. While Dr. Ramirez’s restorative efforts greatly improved Brenda’s smile in 1988, dentistry has advanced.

“Her original smile makeover veneers and dental crowns were created to match her natural color - long before teeth whitening was popular,” Dr. Ramirez said. “So that meant a yellowed look, not as attractive as it was then.” Brenda said she loved her teeth for many years, but was noticing how other people’s teeth were getting whiter.

Then about a year ago Brenda emailed Dr. Ramirez. Rather than encouraging her to come to Boca Raton, Dr. Ramirez offered to help her select a dentist near her home in Maine.

“I didn’t hear from her again until this summer, when she decided to come to Florida for a ‘newer’ smile,” said Dr. Ramirez.

Brenda, returned to Boca Raton from Maine. She had a consultation and two other visits with Dr. Ramirez to complete her dental treatment.

Later, Brenda sent a praise filled email about how happy she was with her ‘new again’ smile...

“Thanks for all your hard work and attention to detail. I received the photos, and just as in real life, my teeth are beautiful and natural-looking. I love to look in the mirror and smile.”

Optimally Informed • The Choice Is Yours.
A decision is made to move ahead only when everything is understood. For Brenda, it meant renewing her smile.

“I was able to see right away how I would treat her smile,” Dr. Ramirez said. “I knew I would be able to design a more natural and complementary smile for her.”

Time For Healthier and Happier Smiles

Putting off your new smile/dental care? Consider:

“She was afraid. But her treatment was done about the same time as Brenda’s, and she’s very happy with her healthier, new smile.” Dr. Ramirez.

Technology Gets Dental Treatment Right In Traverse City

Dentistry Technology has positively changed how dental care is experienced. However, it is interesting how much treatment is still done using 'guestimation' - to some extent. While basing treatment on expertise and experience is often all that is needed - 'really knowing' what is going on in the mouth is the leap forward we should expect today.

Basically, each person's oral anatomy is different - teeth, bone and the disease both will harbor like to hide. The type of scanning technology referenced in this Online News Release takes diagnosis and treatment to whole other level...

Northwood Dental Continues To Improve Dentistry In Traverse City Michigan Area

Northwood Dental, led by Dr. Brian Klym, is now equipped with the innovative Kodak 9000 3D imaging system, illustrating Northwood Dental's continuing commitment to quality dental care. Dr. Klym is the first general dentist in the area to acquire this state-of-the-art equipment, which benefits his patients for many reasons:

Improved Diagnostics: Traverse City Dentist Dr. Klym can now determine a diagnosis more accurately and more quickly, helping to minimize repeat visits, saving patients time and money. "Before I even start, I can see the whole three-dimensional anatomy of the root canal where before I could not." Dr. Klym said.

Comfort: Tailored specifically for a patient to sit facing outward, the Kodak 9000 allows patients to see their Northwood caregiver as the scans are performed-making it a more comfortable experience. "You stand up in the machine, and it's very open room, you don't feel confined, no sense of claustrophobia. The average scan is only 24 seconds."

Technology: The Kodak 9000 shows high-resolution images, allowing Dr. Klym to perform more informed and precise procedures. "I get a three-dimensional 'model' of the bone, and that allows me to see things that I can't see two dimensionally," said Dr. Klym. "I can take precise measurements."

Safety: The Kodak 9000 uses significantly less radiation than many other imaging systems. As Dr. Klym explains, "[Other] medical scanners acquire images that use radiation doses of 40-60 times that of the cone beam that we're using. Ours is even less than the typical cone beam, so it's more like other scanners are 80 times more."

The Kodak 9000 imaging system allows Dr. Klym to capture and view three-dimensional images of a patient's mouth, allowing for an unprecedented level of anatomical detail-and a comprehensive assessment of a patient's oral health.

The addition of the Kodak 9000 imaging system is the latest in a series of events illustrating the continued development of Northwood Dental. Dr. Klym and his team of professionals have provided a full range of dental care to the Traverse City area for years, including but not limited to:

General Dentistry

Cosmetic Dentistry
Smile Makeover Veneers • Invisalign® clear 'braces' • Teeth Whitening • Cosmetic Tooth Bonding

And according to Northwood's patients, they succeed. Their dental office website contains testimonials from real patients in the Traverse City area who explain why they prefer Northwood Dental: from complete health to natural-looking results.

Northwood Dental Continues To Improve Dental Care In Traverse City Area

Suffer Tooth Pain or Visit Your Local Dentist? That is the Question

We as dental consumers worry about going to the dentist because of the 'pain' it will cause. Then we delay and we have more pain. Then we dental consumers hear the term Root Canal Treatment.

"OMG, that will hurt me even more!"

Sadly, we have been mislead by fear-of-the-unknown know less than nothings and dental Illiterati .

While I would like to introduce you to Dr. Schreiber (new member of Dr. Briglia's Total Confidence Dentistry team) if you are experiencing a toothache, swollen gums or other throbbing pain, make a dental appointment to end the pain and possibly even SAVE your tooth!

I wrote a 'serial tweet' about Josh Hamilton (TX Ranger) with tooth problems - who waited and waited and now needs root canals and other restorative work.

See first entry of Josh serial tweet - below.

Link to my Niche Dental Marketing Twitter place.

So using the money excuse is fine, but most likely it is more about misunderstanding the value of root canal treatment. Josh is a perfect example of how it is not REALLY money - but how much you value and/or know about dentistry's value to your life.

Dentist Emphasizing Root Canal Therapy Teams Up

With West Chester Dental OfficeTo End Toothaches and Keep Smiles Healthy

Dr. Glenn Schreiber has teamed up with Total Confidence Dentistry in West Chester, PA to provide our patients with tremendously important endodontic treatment. His proficiency in Root Canal therapy, clinically known as endodontics, can eliminate pain while preserving natural teeth.

Dr. Schreiber, a general dentist, has focused his extensive experience on developing an approach to root canal therapy that achieves a high level of quality very efficiently and more affordably. By limiting his practice to endodontics, he has been able to develop a proficient and methodical approach to care, which means patients are much less likely to have recurring infection and need another root canal.

His background and knowledge in endodontic treatment is thoroughly documented by the 800-1000 successful and comfortable root canal procedures he performs each year.

There are four key reasons Dr. Schreiber, a general dentist, is able to cost-effectively achieve a high level of quality.

1) Dental Care Diligence: Thoroughly cleaning out canal debris and sealing the tooth root is critical. This attention to detail has a positive tradeoff, which can be lifelong health rejuvenation rather than re-infection and costly and time consuming return visits. Saving the natural tooth with root canal therapy has an extended and expanded level of value.

2) Emphasis On Failure Avoidance: Many more root canal compromised teeth can be treated successfully with the proper approach. To avoid endodontic treatment failure, a focused awareness of the tooth anatomy and a more exacting level of care are required. The likelihood of saving teeth with a root canal is greatly increased when these methods are combined.

3) Ending Chronic Inconvenience: Dr. Schreiber knows getting it right the first time is vital. Poor treatment can cause chronic abscesses, requiring more expensive re-treatment. Another visit could create costly inconvenience for the patient (missing work, etc.). Too many times this means distressing tooth loss as well. Unfortunately, the more expensive, re-treated root canals are also known to be less successful, even with the best approach in the most skillful hands.

4) Scientific, Evidence-Based Treatment: After having treated thousands of teeth, Dr. Schreiber has found that about 80% of first upper molars (teeth #3 and #14) have 4 canals instead of the previously expected 3 canals. Four canals, is now the accepted number in endodontic literature and other journals for these teeth. It is important that dentists look for all four root canals and treat them when appropriate, otherwise, discomfort and re-infection of the tooth can occur.

BACKGROUND ON DOCTORGlenn F. Schreiber, DMD, a general dentist, is a University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine graduate (Class of 1978). He completed additional post-doctoral residency training at the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania in 1981.

New Practice in West Chester PA: Implant, Cosmetic - Sedation Dentist

Want More From Your Dentistry?

In Pennsylvania consider the dental office of Ronald Briglia, DMD.

Dr. Ronald Briglia opened his new dental office at 600 E. Marshall in West Chester this fall. It serves dental consumers in southeastern Pennsylvania who want and need a high level of comfort to achieve their oral health goals.

After many years developing the skills, services, and expertise to provide long-term health and esthetically pleasing results for his patients, he now has the environment to match. One where stress is greatly reduced, pain is absent, and informed decisions can be made.

His new facility is one mile from his original West Chester dental office. While the traveling distance is minimal, the new office goes noticeably farther up the ladder of value than both his former setting and that of other practices in the area. The change is crucial for many reasons including making it more likely people will feel comfortable about pursuing dental treatment.

According to statistics from various national health organizations, more than 50% of the population avoids seeing the dentist on even a yearly basis, and this problem is not limited to lower income households. Much avoidance can be attributed to fear, embarrassment, and phobia. With almost 24% of adults having lost all their teeth by age 65 in Pennsylvania alone (source CDC Oral Health), there is a serious need for changing how dentistry is presented and delivered.

The potential for helping people with various dental needs is significant because of Dr. Briglia's unique certification in both IV general anesthesia and oral conscious sedation, and expertise in comprehensive dentistry. Combined with an advanced, calming environment, the likelihood of encouraging those people to come forward is greatly improved.

While clinical results and treatment comfort are vital, Dr. Briglia knows the setting matters too. To remove stress and achieve a higher level of receptivity for complex and necessary treatment, patients are calmed with a rock waterfall, appropriately spacious restroom, various relaxation elements, and refreshments. For those who need distractions, he provides DVDs, Internet, soothing music, satellite radio, Cable TV, and wireless headphones. Visit TotalConfidenceDentistry.com to see and find out more.

His practice mission goes beyond comfort amenities to achieve the trust, respect, and value missing in too many situations. Dr. Briglia wants to make sure his patients get more from their dental care:
• Respect for the patient's condition not a rush to treatment
• Calm, pleasant, and thorough presentation of the possibilities
• Smile care for consumers who want a dentist focused health on first
• Proper sedation to cover all treatments from implants to oral surgery
• Sedation when acceptable to the patient and applicable to their situation
• No reason to travel from place to place: most specialty procedures performed onsite
• Responsible recommendations with options that make the treatment financially possible

"For years, I have been planning and dreaming of this type of setting. A place that truly complements all the advanced continuing education courses I have taken and the level of dental care my team and I can provide. The new practice spotlights the major changes in dentistry since I graduated from Temple Dental School in 1984."

"As one of the few dentists in Southeastern Pennsylvania certified in oral AND IV Sedation dental care for the fearful, phobic, and time challenged, I wanted to develop an advanced dental 'suite' design makes calm, clear, and informed decisions possible. Making optimum oral health decisions first; then determine a clinically sound, esthetically pleasing, and financially feasible way to get it done." Dr. Ron Briglia

Interview Dr. Briglia and discover how his dental practice makeover and expertise make it possible for consumers in West Chester and southeastern Pennsylvania to attain a much healthier lifestyle.
