Helping a Good Cause

Posted by in blog

 

Happy spring, everyone! There’s a wonderful event right around the corner, one that supports a cause that is very near and dear to our heart. Yes, it’s not specifically related to dental health, but as you may have heard, dental and total body health are often inter-related.

Every 3 minutes, a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States. Tri-Valley SOCKs is a local non-profit organization that raises money for breast cancer research, treatment, and educational programs. Their big event of the year is “Bras for the Cause,” a fundraiser walk taking place right here in Pleasanton (passing right by our office!) on Mother’s Day weekend, Saturday, May 12. We are happy to make a donation towards this wonderful group’s super fun event. If you are interested in participating in this event, please check out their website for more information, or stop by our office to pick up a brochure.

While breast cancer may not have a very direct effect on dental health, the treatments for breast cancer may have dental consequences. If you are interested in improving your dental and subsequently, your general health, feel free to contact us with any questions. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter for the latest posts!

 

Cheers to good health!
