You’ll be going at such a pace that one minor hiccup could throw off the whole season. One of the worst, but most preventable, is a dental issue.

“Everyone knows a friend or family member who has been diagnosed or survived breast cancer. This hits close to home. One of our hygienist and some of our dearest patients have battled breast cancer. This is our way of showing our support and helping the cause,” said Dr. Lacap. “It was a big hit last year, so we’ve decided to continue the tradition”.

You are leaving a large part of the job undone. The Tappan dentist wants you to know why flossing is just as important as brushing. (more…)
