Labor Day has come and gone and fall is on the horizon ! In years past , this would be my favorite time as the seasons change , but the coronavirus continues to make 2020 a unique year . We are still waiting to see what school , football and holidays will look like in this time of Covid-19 . Dental practices continue to adjust to the new normal and strive to provide care for their patients while keeping their teams safe .
We are excited to present the distinguished doctors of Lone Star Dental Anesthesia . This talented group of dental anesthesiologists brings safe sedation and general anesthesia directly to the dental office . Following a very rigorous training program similar to physician training , these doctors provide anesthesia services to adults , children , and special needs patients . Check out their story and see if your practice would benefit from their services .
Dental Implants & Periodontics , the practice of Dr . Eduardo Tanur and Dr . Ruben Ovadia , is presented in a Custom Profile highlighting the use of Platelet Rich Fibrin technology in surgical cases .
A variety of editorial rounds out the issue . Texas A & M College of Dentistry announces Dr . Jacque Plemons as the new director of the Stomatology Center . Leadership discusses ‘ burnout ’ in the dental profession ; Safety & Compliance offers guidelines on gas safety in the dental office and Communication gives tips on looking confident on Zoom . Who could have imagined that Zoom would become such an important part of pandemic life ?
My thoughts and prayers continue to go out to the North Texas dental community during this unusual and stressful time . May we all do our best to stay optimistic and know that this too will pass .
Until next time … take care and be well !
