April 2022: Tips, eNews & More!
 

 
It's finally April, and that means that spring is here! Many of us have missed the outdoors and warm weather, so now is a perfect opportunity to take part in all of your favourite outdoor activities such as hiking and sports. As restrictions ease up, we hope that you are able to celebrate spring holidays like Easter, Passover, and Holi with friends and family and enjoy them even more!

April is Oral Health Month, a perfect time to review how to maintain good oral health and to schedule a spring cleaning for your teeth if you haven't been in to see us in a while. Click here to request an appointment with us today!
