Spodak Dental Group Collects More Than 350 Pounds of 2019 Halloween Candy for Operation Gratitude

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group and Operation Gratitude are teaching kids the value of giving back by donating their Halloween candy in support of troops overseas. The national movement is a win-win for kids, parents and dentists.

Donated candy was not only shipped to Operation Gratitude for inclusion in care packages to U.S. Service Members deployed overseas, but was also distributed to local first responders, service members and underserved community members.

Dr. Craig Spodak said his team is proud to participate in the Operation Gratitude Halloween Give-Back Program to reduce excess sugar consumption, prevent dental decay, and teach children the importance of saying "thank you" to all who serve.

"Giving back is one of our company's four core values, so not only is it important for us to support Operation Gratitude and our troops, this is also a way to support the mission of our non-profit organization, All-Star Smiles," said Dr. Craig Spodak, general dentist and co-founder of All-Star Smiles. "While tooth decay is largely preventable, it remains one of the most common diseases of childhood. Giving kids a reason to not indulge in sweets around this time of the year will help to keep their smiles healthy."

In 2018, more than 440,000 pounds of candy was donated to Operation Gratitude and distributed to America's heroes in signature Operation Gratitude Care Packages and local deliveries around the country.

"Operation Gratitude's mission is to thank all who serve, forging strong bonds between grateful Americans and the Heroes who serve and protect them," according to Kevin Schmiegel, Lieutenant Colonel, USMC (Ret.) and CEO of Operation Gratitude. "The Halloween Candy Give-Back Program provides every American child the opportunity to learn about service, sacrifice and generosity."

Candy and handwritten letters and drawings were collected at Spodak Dental Group, located at 3911 W. Atlantic Ave., the week of November 4 during normal business hours. Spodak Dental Group gave kids $1 per pound, up to 5 pounds maximum.

Anterior Quest Launches Incredibly Potent and Effective AQ-Solution, the Highest-Rated Dental Line Cleaner on the Market

JENISON, Mich. /ScoopCloud/ -- Anterior Quest's Newest product, AQ-Solution, has set the gold standard for dental line cleaners. Recently, the market's most environmentally sound product was tested by an independent testing facility in Ann Arbor, Michigan to evaluate the effectiveness of the product and the results were astonishing.

Dental Advisor tested the performance of AQ-Solution, the ability to breakdown build-up in evacuation lines, pipes and traps, level of EPA compliance and eco-friendly properties of the product over 5 weeks. After the testing period, it was concluded that AQ-Solution successfully removed existing build-up and maintained evacuation lines due to living microbes working continuously. Because of this, the innovative formula, made of 100% of the dental industry's recycled water, requires only two uses per week as opposed to the daily usage that many competing products require.

"When we developed this product, we wanted the best product for both our customers and the environment and through a significant level of research, precision, and testing, we are thrilled to say we've achieved that. In addition to that, we have made it affordable for our customers, and with the many environmentally friendly attributes we've added to the formulation, we are very pleased that we can do that. We are excited the day has come that we can share it for all to experience," says Anterior Quest's Sales Director, Jordan Jonker.

The positive response has been widespread and evaluators shared the following:
* "love the product and the time it saves"
* "A difference in the strength of my suction after the first use"
* "Incredibly potent and effective"
* "It had a clean, fresh smell"

"The feedback we received from those who tested the product solidified our already high level of excitement in the quality of our product", continued Jonker.

Spodak Dental Group Offers Minimally-Invasive Laser Treatment for Gum Disease

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group now offers a patient-friendly outpatient treatment for gum disease, the LANAP(R) protocol. Gum disease is an infection of the tissues that support the teeth, and impacts more than 50% of American adults. The LANAP(R) protocol is the only FDA-cleared laser treatment proven to regenerate bone loss to gum disease without cutting or stitching of the gums.

"We're pleased to offer our patients technologically advanced treatment options that fit with today's busy lifestyles. Through the LANAP(R) protocol, we can offer patients a comfortable laser-based surgical option for gum disease to help save teeth," said Dr. Tiffany Dudley, general dentist at Spodak Dental Group. "The procedure is fast, often painless, and patients resume daily activities immediately."

In the initial stages of the disease, gums can become red, swollen and bleed easily. However, some patients have no symptoms at all. If the condition worsens, gums and bone that support the teeth can become seriously damaged and the teeth can become loose, fall out or have to be removed. Gum disease has been linked to serious systemic diseases including stroke, heart disease, Alzheimer's and certain cancers.

Dr. Dudley strongly urges patients with gum disease to seek treatment as soon as they can. The earlier laser dentistry services are received, the more positive the outcome. Appointments can be scheduled by calling or texting Spodak Dental Group at (561) 303-2413.

The LANAP(R) protocol offers a proven, vastly less painful and less invasive treatment. It is also the only laser gum surgery backed with histological and clinical science. By reducing post-operative pain, the number of sessions required and the recovery time, the LANAP(R) treatment removes many of the reasons that so many patients hesitate to seek treatment for periodontal disease.

EON Clinics Announces New Clinic Location in Oakbrook Terrace

CHICAGO, Ill. /ScoopCloud/ -- EON Clinics Founder and President Rajan Sharma, DDS, announces the opening of a new all-in-one dental implant center in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois. The facility, located at One Parkview Plaza, 17W110 22nd Street, Suite 150, is replacing the Westmont location and will also serve as the company's new corporate headquarters.

EON Clinics offers exceptional dental implant treatment in the convenience of one setting, delivered by a highly specialized team of oral surgeons, prosthodontists, clinicians, lab technicians, and support staff with extensive expertise. "At EON Clinics, we ensure that every person who walks through our doors can make an informed decision about the best treatment option to fit their unique needs, whether they're missing one, several, or all their teeth," said Dr. Sharma.

As is customary at all EON Clinics locations, clients who call to schedule a visit at the Oakbrook Terrace office will receive a complimentary, no-obligation consultation from a prosthodontist and treatment coordinator who will assist them through the journey, including help with financial or other treatment matters that may arise. During the free consultation, information is gathered about the prospective patient's overall health and specific dental needs. Clinic staff then review dental implant treatment options with the individual, explaining the advantages and disadvantages of each.

The consultation also includes a 3-D CT scan to evaluate the condition of the individual's teeth, soft tissue, nerve pathways, and bone. In a single scan, this sophisticated imaging technology quickly provides 3-D images that help guide accurate placement of dental implants.

All-On-4 Dental Implants Provide a Unique Solution for Missing Teeth:

All-On-4 dental implants are a highly effective solution for people in need of full upper and/or lower restorations, with a success rate of nearly 98%. Instead of using bone grafting and six to eight implants for each full arch of teeth, the All-On-4 approach requires the placement of only four implants and rarely necessitates grafting. After the initial consultation and prosthodontic exam, patients receive a full-set of non-removable teeth in just one appointment.

Traditional Dental Implants:

Dental implants are ideal for patients missing several teeth or a single tooth. During an outpatient procedure, a small hole is drilled in the patient's jawbone and a titanium screw is carefully placed into the bone. The strong and durable titanium metal "fuses" with the patient's jawbone in a process called osseointegration. The gum is placed over the implant so it can heal, which takes about 3 to 6 months. After sufficient healing, a second surgery is performed to fit the connector into the top of the implant. The natural-looking porcelain crown is then fixed to the connector. Approximately 500,000 people undergo dental implant procedures each year with a national success rate of 93-95%. EON Clinics' success rate exceeds 98%, due to the extensive expertise of the entire team including oral surgeons and prosthodontists, in-house lab, and sophisticated technology, all located in a one-stop facility.

About EON Clinics:

Dr. Rajan Sharma founded family-operated and owned EON Clinics in 2007 as University Dental Implant Facility, changing the name in 2010. Currently, services focused solely on state-of-the-art dental implants are provided at three locations in suburban Chicago, with two additional facilities in Munster, Indiana and Waukesha, Wisconsin.

Intermountain Healthcare Works with Burg Children’s Dentistry to Promote Oral Health and Overall Wellness for Utah Children

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah /ScoopCloud/ -- Intermountain Healthcare is integrating dental care into its preventive primary care model, beginning with a unique collaboration with Utah-based Burg Children's Dentistry to support a "whole health" approach to care for Utah children.

The collaboration will facilitate primary care providers and dentists working more closely together to improve overall wellness and prevent disease in communities throughout Utah.

The two organizations will integrate dental and medical care for children from 14 locations in Salt Lake County, Tooele, Park City, Bountiful, and Utah County. Intermountain Medical Group pediatricians and family medicine caregivers will work closely with Burg's 18 dentists to coordinate care and make it more convenient for families to get all of the care their children need in an integrated and convenient manner.

"Intermountain Healthcare's integrated primary care model already includes physical and mental care, and adding dental care will help us increase our focus on the whole health of each person we serve," said Dave Henriksen, operations officer for Intermountain Medical Group.

Certain diseases and medications may affect dental health, and dental decay, infection, and inflammation can adversely affect overall health. Recent research has found that poor oral health may be connected with several chronic illnesses and diseases, including heart diease, diabetes, and respiratory disease, among others. A recent study of more than 700 people by researchers at the University of Helsinki, published in JAMA last April, found that people who exerperienced oral infections in childhood were were likely to at risk for heart disease and stroke.

Burg Children's Dentistry's first location opened in 2002 in Murray, Utah, by founder and president Jeff Burg, DDS, MBA. Since that time, the group has grown to be the largest pediatric dental practice in Utah.

"Burg Children's Dentistry has years of experience developing a high-quality and affordable model. We think they're a perfect fit for us," said Henriksen. "We're excited by the opportunity to collaborate with their dentists to improve the lives of children by establishing an integrated, organized, and connected physical, mental, and oral health model in Utah."

"We're honored to be a part of such an innovative solution to the overall healthcare of children, and we're excited about the prospect of delivering a more efficient and convenient solution to our patients and their parents," said Dr. Burg.

"Intermountain has a long legacy of serving our community by providing the highest-quality medical care at an unmatched value," added Henriksen. "We aim to provide that same legacy of service in dental care. We look forward to the exciting possibilities our combined skill sets will deliver to our communities."

Improving Health: Delray Beach Dentist Offers A Better Night’s Sleep

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Local dentist, Dr. Tiffany Dudley is now helping Delray Beach, Florida, residents get a more restful night's sleep. Dr. Dudley of Spodak Dental Group recently became an American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine (ABDSM) Diplomate.

ABDSM is the board for the leading national organization for dentists who treat snoring and obstructive sleep apnea with oral appliance therapy. Earning Diplomate status from the ABDSM is a unique honor that recognizes special competency in dental sleep medicine.

"Sleeping with a CPAP machine, which includes a face mask, tubing and a constantly running motor, can be difficult, and many Delray Beach residents are unaware that an effective - and comfortable - treatment is available," said Dr. Tiffany Dudley, general dentist at Spodak Dental Group. "I'm committed to using my knowledge of dental sleep medicine to help treat my patients' snoring and sleep apnea, and provide Delray Beach residents with a better night's rest."

While CPAP is the standard treatment for sleep apnea, the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine estimates up to 50 percent of sleep apnea patients do not comply with or tolerate CPAP. In contrast to a CPAP machine, oral appliances are a mouth guard-like device worn only during sleep to maintain an open, unobstructed airway. Patients like oral appliance therapy because it is comfortable, easy to wear, quiet, portable and easy to care for.

"Oral appliance therapy is an effective treatment option that offers a higher rate of patient compliance than CPAP," Dr. Dudley said. "I work with my patients and their sleep physicians to identify the right oral appliance device, custom fit the device for each patient, and make any needed adjustments to ensure an open airway and a more restful sleep."

Patients with loud snoring and diagnosed sleep apnea sufferers with difficulty tolerating CPAP should contact Dr. Dudley to schedule a complimentary consultation appointment. She also works closely with physicians to treat snoring and obstructive sleep apnea.

Spodak Dental Group Spends 43rd Anniversary At Their Ninth Annual Beach Cleanup Event

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group celebrated the company's 43rd Anniversary by giving back to their community and cleaning up the Delray's beach. The Ninth Annual SDG Beach Cleanup was held Sunday, June 2 at the Delray Beach South End, South Tower 5, and more than 60 pounds of trash was removed by more than 75 community members.

The amount of waste in the world's oceans is increasing at a rapid pace, with much of it cluttering the seabed and clogging up the stomachs of sea creatures. For ocean lovers, Spodak Dental Group's Annual Beach Cleanup event brings an opportunity to ensure Delray's waterways and oceans stand a fighting chance against increasing numbers of debris and waste.

"The beach cleanup is not only about cleaning the beach, but also about creating awareness in our community," said Dr. Craig Spodak, general dentist. "By partnering with other Earth-conscious local companies, we are able to increase our reach and make a great impact."

Spodak Dental Group partnered not only with the Palm Beach County Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, but also other local businesses including Loggerhead Marinelife Center, Delray Beach Water Sports, Caloosa Water Wear, Pizza Rustica, Delivery Dudes and Saltwater Brewery. Together the team was able to collect 120 cigarette butts, 50 bottle caps, 20 plastic bottles, 20 plastic straws and plastic utensils and two yards of fishing line/rope, among other items.

The statistics speak for themselves. More than 1 million plastic bags are used worldwide every minute, with estimates pointing toward 160 million metric tons ending up in the ocean by 2025. This is the ninth event that Spodak Dental Group has hosted and the team is dedicated to cleaning their local beach for many years to come.

Dr. Tiffany Dudley of Spodak Dental Group is First Dentist in Delray Beach to Earn American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine Qualified Dentist Distinction

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group is pleased to announce that general dentist, Tiffany Dudley, has earned the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) Qualified Dentist distinction. She is the first and only dentist in Delray Beach, Fla. to hold this distinction.

The AADSM Qualified Dentist designation recognizes dentists who have a valid state dental license, liability coverage and at least 25 hours of recognized continuing education in dental sleep medicine provided by a non-profit organization or university within the last two years. Earning this distinction will advance her role in the treatment of sleep-disordered breathing for the benefit of her patients.

"Diagnosing and treating patients who suffer from sleep apnea is one of the most important services we offer," said Dr. Craig Spodak, general dentist at Spodak Dental Group. "Every year about 38,000 people die from heart disease directly complicated by sleep apnea, so the additional training Dr. Dudley has received, and will continue to receive, will allow us to treat more of our patients and save even more lives."

An estimated 22 million Americans suffer from sleep apnea. Out of those people, approximately 80 percent of cases of moderate or severe sleep apnea are undiagnosed. Dentists play an important role in recognizing people at risk and treating sleep disorders because they have pioneered the use of oral appliance therapy for the treatment of sleep apnea and sleep related breathing disorders.

Dental sleep medicine is an area of dental practice that focuses on the use of oral appliance therapy to treat sleep-disordered breathing, including snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Dentists work together with physicians to identify the best treatment for each patient. With Dr. Dudley's expertise in the sleep apnea field, the Spodak Dental Group hopes to expand its reach and assist those community members who suffer from sleep apnea.

Spodak Dental Group To Provide Free Dental Care as Part of Freedom Day USA on October 11, 2018

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group ("SDG") proudly announces its participation in the Sixth Annual Freedom Day USA, in which SDG will provide complimentary dental services to the men and women of our Armed Forces, and their immediate family members. Freedom Day USA is a "Day of Free" to thank military personnel and their families for the sacrifices they make each day to ensure our freedom.

"Unfortunately, highly-skilled dentistry is not always accessible to members of the military for many reasons," said Dr. Craig Spodak, owner of Spodak Dental Group and National Committee Member for Freedom Day USA. "We consider this an honor and a duty to take care of our military members by providing exceptional dental care to them and their families, leaving them with one less thing they have to worry about while they are away serving our country."

This year, Freedom Day USA will be held nationwide on Thursday, October 11, 2018, and in honor of this day, Spodak Dental Group will provide veterans, active military members and their families free cleanings, exams, fillings, X-rays, treatment for tooth pain, and extractions. Spodak Dental Group is the only dental office in Delray Beach, Fla. offering these complimentary services.

Dr. Craig Spodak has been placed on the National Committee for Freedom Day USA 2018 following his participation since the event's inception and exemplary results in previous years, where he has led a huge charge within his dental facility resulting in more than $180,000 combined in total dental work provided to support this cause. Last year alone, the dental team was able to treat more than 35 military members, many of who had dental pain and needed immediate attention.

"I was quite surprised that there are very few companies that really help the veterans at this time," said Veteran Barry Levey, a 2016 Freedom Day USA patient at Spodak Dental Group. "And I wish other businesses would follow and give back just like us veterans did give for our country. If I had to do it again, I would."

Dr. Tiffany Dudley Offers Improved Treatment Options for Community Members Who Suffer from Sleep Apnea

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Dr. Tiffany Dudley of Spodak Dental Group is committed to saving lives and is dedicated to helping her community members treat their sleep apnea condition. Studies show that people who suffer from untreated sleep apnea can have a decreased life expectancy, so treatment is incredibly important for overall health.

"Recognizing and treating patients who suffer from sleep apnea is one of the most important services we offer," said Dr. Tiffany Dudley, general dentist at Spodak Dental Group. "Every year about 38,000 people die from heart disease directly complicated by sleep apnea, so it is very crucial that we screen and treat all of our patients."

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a very common and potentially life-threatening medical disorder that occurs when the soft tissue in a person's throat repeatedly collapses and blocks the airway during sleep. These partial reductions and complete pauses in breathing typically last between 10 and 30 seconds, but can persist for one minute or longer. These pauses can happen 100 times per night, leading to abrupt reductions in blood oxygen levels causing less oxygen being delivered to your organs, including the heart and brain.

The brain alerts the body about the lack of oxygen, causing brief arousal from sleep that restores normal breathing, sometimes with a loud snort or choking sound, which is why most bed partners complain of loud and excessive snoring. The result is a fragmented quality of sleep that often leads to excessive daytime sleepiness. Untreated OSA increases your risk for high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, depression, memory loss and more. But also, if you already suffer from one of these conditions, you are at a higher risk for developing sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea patients can be any age, weight or stature. Both men and women of any age or body type can suffer from the condition. Additionally, the sleep disorder progressively worsens with age and weight gain, but there is a solution.

Dentists play an important role in recognizing people at risk and treating sleep disorders. They have pioneered the use of oral appliance therapy for the treatment of sleep apnea and sleep related breathing disorders. The traditional treatment method is the use of a CPAP, which is a machine with a mask, worn during sleeping, that provides a constant stream of air that keeps your breathing passages open by blowing air into a mask that covers the nose and mouth.

An oral appliance, however, is a device worn in the mouth only during sleeping, re-positioning the tongue and lower jaw forward to maintain an open airway, without sleeping with a mask and tubes connected to you like with the CPAP. Dentists trained in dental sleep medicine know how to select, fabricate, fit and adjust these devices, which look like a mouth guard or retainer, to help patients breathe freely during sleep. With an oral appliance, dentists can minimize or eliminate the symptoms of sleep apnea in mild to moderate cases.

If you or your partner suffers from any of the many risk factors relating to sleep apnea, make an appointment for a free consultation with your dentist to discuss your options.

Spodak Dental Group and Surfrider Foundation Partnered for the Eighth Annual Beach Cleanup Event

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group and the Surfrider Foundation Palm Beach Chapter partnered for the Eighth Annual SDG Beach Cleanup and cleaned more than 140 pounds of trash from Delray's beach. The event was held Sunday, June 24 at the Delray Beach South End, South Tower 5, and more than 55 community members joined forces to ensure a safe and clean beach.

The amount of waste in the world's oceans is increasing at a rapid pace, with much of it cluttering the seabed and clogging up the stomachs of sea creatures. For ocean lovers, Spodak Dental Group's Annual Beach Cleanup event brings an opportunity to ensure Delray's waterways and oceans stand a fighting chance against increasing numbers of debris and waste.

"The beach cleanup is all about awareness, and we're proud to be creating that in our community," said Dr. Craig Spodak, owner and general dentist. "There is so much opportunity to be an environmental steward in our community, and to encourage local businesses and community members to do so as well, and it's great because we all benefit from a clean beach."

Spodak Dental Group partnered not only with the Palm Beach County Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation, but also other local businesses including Delray Beach Water Sports, Caloosa Water Wear, Pizza Rustica and Saltwater Brewery. Together the teams were able to collect cigarette butts, single-use plastic bags, paper and plastic cups, plastic cartons, and more.

The statistics speak for themselves. More than 1 million plastic bags are used worldwide every minute, with estimates pointing toward 160 million metric tons ending up in the ocean by 2025. This is the eighth event that Spodak Dental Group has hosted and the team is dedicated to cleaning their local beach for many years to come.

Spodak Dental Group Sponsored Womens Self-Defense Class as Part of Family Wellness Month

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- The Spodak Dental Group sponsored a LADIES F.I.R.S.T.(TM) Self Defense class this past Friday, May 11 as part of Family Wellness Month. The class was led by Sgt. Ken Stephens (ret.), a 20-year veteran police officer with 16 years of S.W.A.T. experience. The roughly three-hour course was completely underwritten by Dr. Craig Spodak as a way to help community members learn tips to protect themselves if ever faced with an attacker.

"In light of the recent happenings in the news about horrific acts taking place in schools and community buildings, we, as business owners, need to take all the steps we can to protect our community members," said Dr. Craig Spodak, owner of Spodak Dental Group. "If I can help to save one person's life, it's all worth it."

All female community members, regardless of age, athleticism, strength, flexibility and body types, were invited to participate, and roughly 30 people were in attendance. Attendees learned how to use gravity, leverage and technique to deter an attacker.

"If a technique won't work against a motivated attacker, I won't teach it. It's that simple," says Ken Stephens, Founder of Ladies F.I.R.S.T.(TM) Self Defense.

According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, one in five women is raped during her lifetime, and one in three women have been victims of some form of physical violence by an intimate partner within their lifetime. On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States. During one year, this equates to more than 10 million women and men.

New Study Strengthens Evidence that Fluoride Safely Prevents Tooth Decay, But Critics Ignore the Study They Once Welcomed

WASHINGTON, D.C. /ScoopCloud/ -- A study led by researchers at the federal government's National Toxicology Program (NTP) has found no link between elevated levels of fluoride and cognitive/learning deficits. The American Fluoridation Society (AFS) reports that the recently released NTP study examined rats that consumed food and water with varying exposures of fluoride. The researchers "observed no exposure-related differences in motor, sensory, or learning and memory performance" for any of the nine tests they conducted.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recognizes the benefits of adding fluoride to toothpaste and drinking water. The CDC and many leading health experts recommend adding fluoride to drinking water to help prevent tooth decay. Most public water systems in the U.S. add more fluoride to reach the level proven to reduce the rate of tooth decay for children and adults.

When the NTP study was first announced, an anti-fluoride group welcomed the news with a headline declaring that the study's findings "could end fluoridation." This group cited the NTP's "cutting edge scientific tools" and wrote that the NTP's decision to conduct a study "puts a lie to [proponents'] claims" about fluoridation. The American Fluoridation Society (AFS) noted that critics have been quiet since the NTP study results were publicly released.

"Critics of community water fluoridation were thrilled when the NTP said they would conduct a thorough study of this issue," said AFS President Johnny Johnson. "However, they have been as quiet as a church mouse since the NTP's findings were made public. Once again, they choose to ignore the studies that don't fit into their fear-based mindset. They're choosing silence over science."

The NTP research studied rats during their prenatal development through their adulthood. These rats consumed water with three different concentrations of fluoride (0, 10 and 20 ppm) and two different fluoride levels in food: 20.5 ppm (a standard diet) and 3.24 ppm (low-fluoride diet). Although fluoride critics often claim that fluoridation is harmful to the thyroid, the NTP study revealed that thyroid hormone levels were not altered by exposure to levels as high as 10 or 20 parts per million (ppm) of fluoride.

The only side effect found by the NTP study was inflammation of the prostate gland, which was observed only at a fluoride exposure that was far above the level of human exposure by drinking fluoridating water.

In addition to the NTP study, research published in 2015 by the American Journal of Public Health found no link at all between fluoridation and IQ scores. This 2015 study was conducted in New Zealand, where fluoridation programs are common. The New Zealand study examined a large sample of people and examined IQ scores collected over a 31-year period.

Few public health topics have been researched as thoroughly as CWF. In fact, the database maintained by the U.S. National Library of Medicine contains more than 56,000 studies or research papers on fluoride. And the Library's records include more than 6,400 studies that focus specifically on fluoridation.

Two other recent reports reinforce the safety of fluoridated water. In a report issued this March, Public Health England reviewed the evidence surrounding fluoridation and reached this conclusion: "The findings of this report agree with the view that water fluoridation is an effective and safe public health measure to reduce the frequency and severity of dental decay, and narrow differences in dental health between more and less deprived children and young people."

In April, the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) issued a report stating that "there is currently no scientific basis for concerns about the safety of children and adults" due to fluoride exposure from foods and drinks.

Spodak Dental Group Offers The Revolutionary LANAP Protocol to Treat Patients Who Have Periodontal Disease

Spodak Dental Group /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group is proud to offer its patients who are suffering from periodontal disease with a new, non-surgical treatment technique. The LANAP protocol is an FDA-cleared laser treatment that offers patients a less painful, more successful treatment alternative to conventional gum surgery because there is no need for cutting or sutures.

The LANAP (Laser Assisted New Attachment Procedure) protocol is one of the only scientifically, research-proven methodologies that result in true periodontal regeneration, new bone growth and gum tissue reattachment. It is minimally invasive surgery that does not require the need for a blade or sutures, and offers very little recession and pain for the patient. The laser uses a particular wavelength that tells the difference between non-healthy and healthy tissue, meaning that it is very safe and selective.

This is the first time periodontists can remove diseased tissue and bacteria from gums without causing damage to healthy tissue. Additionally, there is less pain and downtime, less recession of the gum line, and less time needed to heal when compared with traditional gum surgery.

"We are really excited that we can offer our patients the LANAP protocol, as not many dental offices offer this treatment," said Dr. Craig Spodak, owner of Spodak Dental Group. "Our goal is to provide our patients with the best possible treatment using state-of-the-art techniques, and we've been able to give our patients incredible results."

The LANAP protocol has also better long-term results and is more predictable when it comes to bone regeneration and connective reattachment of the treated tissue. The laser stimulates the bone that surrounds the root of the tooth and has been proven to create regeneration, and, in many cases, often save teeth that might have been previously extracted due to bone loss. In many cases, the treatment can even reverse the effects of periodontal disease and the patient's gum health will continue to improve over time.

Periodontal diseases range from simple gum inflammation to serious disease that results in major damage to the soft tissue and bone that support the teeth. When gingivitis is not treated, it can advance to periodontitis, which means there is inflammation around the tooth. In periodontitis, gums pull away from the teeth and form spaces, called pockets, that become infected. Bacterial toxins and the body's natural response to infection start to break down the bone and connective tissue that hold teeth in place. If not treated, the bones, gums, and tissue that support the teeth are destroyed and the teeth may eventually have to be removed.

The goal of the Spodak Dental Group team is to help their patients keep their teeth for a lifetime, and the LANAP protocol allows their patients to do just that.

Since 1976, the Spodak Dental Group has evolved to become South Florida's premier, comprehensive dental facility, and comprises a world-class association of dental professionals poised to provide full-service dental care second-to-none in both scope and skill. The Spodak Dental Group team includes General and Restorative Dentists, Endodontists, Periodontists, Prosthodontists, Board Certified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, Master Ceramic Artists and Anesthesiologists.

Spodak Dental Group Named VIP: Platinum Nationwide Invisalign Provider

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Spodak Dental Group has been named a VIP: Platinum Provider of Invisalign(R) for 2018, which is the second highest distinction in the field. VIP: Platinum Providers make up a select few of all North American Invisalign(R) Providers and are among some of the most experienced.

Spodak Dental Group is the only general dental office to earn the VIP: Platinum status in Palm Beach County. The team of dentists conveniently offers both Invisalign(R) Adult and Teen treatments.

A doctor's tier reflects the number of individuals he/she has recently treated with the comprehensive Invisalign(R) clear aligner treatment. Doctors who have achieved the VIP status are Valued Invisalign Providers, and have chosen to specialize in using the Invisalign(R) treatment to shape their patients' smile.

Invisalign(R) effectively treats a wide variety of cases, including crowding, spacing, crossbite, overbite and underbite, and consists of smooth, comfortable plastic aligners instead of sharp metal, reducing irritation on your teeth and gums.

"As a VIP: Platinum Provider, we are so proud to offer our patients the most up-to-date, state-of-the-art techniques and procedures," said Dr. Craig Spodak, owner of Spodak Dental Group. "The greatest reward is seeing our patients enjoy their straight, healthy smile, and we are proud of helping them increase their confidence and quality of life."

In addition to being a VIP: Platinum Provider, the Spodak Dental Group uses the iTero(R) Digital Scanning System to provide great quality of care and comfort for their patients. The System eliminates the need for messy putty in the patient's mouth by creating a 3-D digital impression of their teeth. In addition to offering a faster and more comfortable experience, the iTero(R) System is also more accurate, which results in a more precise fit for the Invisalign(R) aligners.

Spodak Dental Group is currently helping patients begin their Invisalign(R) treatment for $0 down and $199 per month for 24 months, interest free. Average treatment time is 10 months for adults, which is significantly less than traditional metal braces, in addition to being less expensive than braces.

Spodak Dental Group Partners with Tony Robbins and Feeding America for 40th Anniversary

DELRAY BEACH, Fla., May 2, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Spodak Dental Group ("SDG" or the "Group"), announced their partnership with best-selling author, Tony Robbins, and Feeding America today, with the mission to feed America's hungry. In honor of Spodak Dental Group's 40th Anniversary, Dr. Craig Spodak is launching a "40 Days of Giving" Campaign to raise $40,000 in 40 days, and will donate all monies to Feeding America, the nation's largest domestic hunger-relief organization.

"I could not think of a better way to celebrate our 40th Anniversary than to partner with our friend and patient, Tony Robbins, and his alliance with Feeding America," said Dr. Craig Spodak, owner of Spodak Dental Group. "Our noble cause has always been to change the world through the power of compassion and it's an honor to be able to positively impact so many people who desperately need it."

To reach the $40,000 goal for the "40 Days of Giving" Campaign, Spodak Dental Group will donate $400 per Invisalign case sold in the 40-day period preceding the Group's June 2, 2016 anniversary date. At the end of the campaign, Tony Robbins will match the Group's net proceeds, dollar for dollar, to ensure that 880,000 meals will be distributed through the network of food banks served by Feeding America.

According to Feeding America, one in seven people in the United States struggles with hunger. Both Dr. Craig Spodak and Tony Robbins believe that no one should go hungry and have taken the pledge to help solve hunger.

"I'm grateful for Spodak Dental to join my 100 Million Meals challenge in partnership with Feeding America," commented Tony Robbins. "Last year we provided 102 million meals to our neighbors in need. We're going to do it again this year, and one of our most valued partners is my own family dentist, Spodak Dental Group. Our partnership will provide relief to those who struggle with hunger right here at home, as well as bring an increased awareness to this issue that affects so many."
