Speaking of Santa...


I hope everyone is recovering from the Holiday bustle!
We're back at it here at Drake!

 I had a realization on Christmas Eve as I was sneaking around, playing Santa, and trying not to wake up my two little boys: I AM SUCH A FRAUD.

 What do I do once this jig is up? What am I going to tell them about the Tooth Fairy? And the Easter Bunny? 

 I'm eating the cookies, writing the Elf's good-bye letter, drinking the milk, sneaking the presents from my closet...
Don't get me wrong, now. It's SO much fun, and so worth it...but seriously, WHO STARTED ALL THIS MESS that we have to clean up? Is there an article on how to gently let these folks go from their lives?

 Below is a link to a neat article I found when trying to find someone to blame for having to keep cash in my purse for the next few years!  (I recently had to sneak a dollar from the 4 year old's piggy bank when the 8 year old unexpectedly lost a tooth.)  I found a lot of fun facts from different regions - even the going rate the Tooth Fairy dishes out these days! 
Whatever you and yours celebrate throughout the years, we wish you joy! 
Happy Holidays!

Plan your Smile with Diagnostic Wax Ups by Drake Dental Laboratory

Image
YOU SHOULD WAX! Diagnostic Wax Ups are a great way to treatment plan full mouth, full arch, or several unit spans for you and your patient.  Before the commitment is made, why not have a visual aide?   The wax up can be canted, lengthened, changed, and discussed until it is clinically and aesthetically ready to be made into a permanent restoration. The Wax Ups serve as a blueprint, and a patient-dentist-lab communication - all of this provides confidence and assurance in the final investment. One of our talented technicians let us video his process. Not only do we get a sneak peek at his talent, be we get to see the before model and the  after mock-up!
