Bowl for Kids Sake
Support Dr. Benedict and the "Striking Smiles" as we raise funds for a good cause!

Every dollar raised through Bowl for Kids Sake helps match kids with a mentor. Research shows that children who have been mentored have higher self esteem and are more likely to stay in school.

Last year's event was a huge success, so we're looking forward to another great event.

Healthy Smile, Healthy Heart!

Hearty Vegetable Lasagna

February coincides with Heart Month, an initiative to raise awareness and funds for those affected by heart disease and stroke.

At least 90% of Canadians have at least one risk factor, so make sure you are aware of the symptoms and to check up on family and friends who may be at risk.

Taking care of your teeth can also help with your heart health. Research has shown that bacteria found in gum disease can spread to the heart so make sure you brush and floss regularly.
