If you are a self-motivated, well-organized dental professional with strong communication skills, who values and appreciates their role in delivering high quality oral health care, you may be the special dental assistant our hi-tech family and cosmetic dental practice would like to add to our team.
We would like to speak with you if you have experience, are xray certified, possibly expanded duties certified, have had computer and digital radiography exposure, and enjoy dentistry.

We are joining with the American Cancer Society as we promote Daffodil Days, March 10-16. On Wednesday, March 12, 2008, we will be handing out bunches of fresh cut daffodils to brighten your day and to raise awareness to the need to raise funds to support programs and research grants that make an incredible difference in the lives of cancer patients and their families.
Daffodil Days is one of the American Cancer Society’s oldest and most beloved fundraising programs that celebrates the Society’s mission to eliminate cancer as a life-threatening disease. For more than 30 years, Daffodil Days has empowered people to make a difference in the fight against cancer by raising funds and awareness to help beat the disease. Daffodil Days involves offering daffodils every spring to donors in appreciation for their contributions, but it is about more than just giving beautiful flowers - it is everyone’s opportunity to share hope for a world free of cancer. By giving daffodils to friends, family members, local businesspeople, and even cancer patients, people are really giving hope by enabling the Society to offer free programs and services to improve the lives of people facing cancer. Daffodil Days is also and easy and meaningful way to get involved with the american Cancer Society and to learn more about ways to keep fighting cancer all year.

The extract prevents tooth decay more effectively than fluoride, making teeth harder and less susceptible to plaque.
Something that separates us from most other dental practices is the new patient experience. Most people expect that their first visit at a new dental office will be with the dental hygienist getting their teeth “cleaned” and maybe they’ll have a five to ten minute face-to-face meeting with the dentist. Not so at our Bethesda, Potomac and Rockville area office! (more…)
