The Arctic Freeze covered the great state of Texas for days with record low temperatures , snow and ice in amounts far above what we are used to . Fellow Texans experienced loss of power and water for days on end and horrific damage from the thawing of broken pipes . Dental offices that dealt with unexpected weather closures are regrouping to ramp back up production . We had so many great expectations for 2021 but at the moment , I don ’ t think that is happening . I guess we need to keep a positive attitude and be optimistic that the year will improve .
North Texas Dentistry is pleased to revisit Essential Endodontics as our cover story . The practice led by Dr . Chris Yelton has expanded to eight offices and eleven talented endodontists . With offices in Alliance , Burleson , Colleyville , Denton , Fort Worth , Little Elm , Mansfield and their newest location in Waco . Their practice principle is to put patient care first and strive to accommodate patient ’ s needs as quickly as possible .
Check out some great articles on a variety of timely topics . Infection Control discusses diseases that commonly impact dentistry ; Marketing answers questions on the effectiveness of direct mail for the dental practice ; Management explains how dental teams can make a difference during Covid-19 and Texas A & M College of Dentistry shares Dr . Robert Triplett ’ s reflections on the dental profession and his friendship with Dr . Robert Walker .
North Texas Dentistry continues to line up cover stories for 2021 . A cover feature is an effective way to tell your story , increase your patient referrals and get more customers for your business or service . We make the process easy and fun !
I want to thank my advertisers and contributors for their continued support . This has been a trying time for all and I pray we see some sunshine and good times in the very near future .
Take care and be well ! Until next time …
