October 2020: Tips, eNews & More! |
It's officially fall. Bring on the cozy movie nights, Thanksgiving celebrations, and Halloween decorations. This will no doubt be the start of a fall season that we've never seen before, but there's no reason to tone down at-home festivities. Kids dressing up, turkey dinners being made... It's a wonderful time to spend with family, in your bubble or dialed-in, and to capture and share those joyful moments.
As the school year is officially in full swing (online or otherwise), it's a good time to make sure you and your family's dental needs are taken care of before life gets even busier. If your kids are participating in any sports, they might need a mouthguard to make sure their teeth are protected from harm during those activities. This month, our article covers the health and cosmetic benefits of dental implants. If your smile has a gap or missing tooth that causes discomfort, we've got you covered.
Stay safe and enjoy the new season. Many thanks to all our patients and Happy Thanksgiving!
Sincerely,
Dr. Nick Babatsikos and Team

Tips to Safely Celebrate Thanksgiving! |
Don't let the pandemic get in the way of Turkey day! Here are some suggestions on how to cope with the anxiety that goes into carefully hosting Thanksgiving dinner during a second wave of COVID-19 and ways to celebrate safely:
- Have lunch instead of dinner and move outdoors so you have room to social distance.
- Don't do shared dishes. Have enough utensils and make sure one person dishes out the servings onto individual plates.
- Introverts, savour this moment. COVID-19 is the best excuse to cancel!
- Prepare a virtual Thanksgiving dinner by sharing special familiy recipes in advance so everyone is eating the same thing. Hopefully there are some wonderful disasters to laugh about.
- Support local and order the same takeout from restaurants or caterers. Eat together virtually. Go here for more than a dozen local Thanksgiving options.
- Make multiple servings of your Thanksgiving specialty and drop off portions to family and friends.
