Dunedin Cosmetic Dentist Participates in Smile for School Initiative, a Great Success!

On Friday, August 21st 2009, Dr. Mike Hopkins and Staff participated in the Smile for School initiative. Dr. Hopkins, accompanied by volunteer hygienists, dental assistants and support staff volunteered time and services to Pinellas County children of school age. Each child was treated to a free cleaning, exam and xrays. In total, Dr. Hopkins treated 17 children, for an estimated total of $3,145.

Smile for School was created by Dr. Sandra Lilo of Seminole, Florida. Its purpose is to promote oral health and hygiene for younger children. In a challenging economy with many families losing their benefits, Dr. Hopkins felt it vitally important to participate in this program to ensure that these children are still receiving the oral care they need.

Dr. Hopkins has participated in many goodwill projects. Most recently he has focused his efforts in Peru. He will return in March 2010 to continue his work in the orphanages of Lima. For more information, please visit www.allaboutsmiles.org/goodwill.php

Dunedin Cosmetic Dentist Excited to Introduce Latisse for Eyelashes!

So I've never been a mascara user, obviously. I have occasionally looked at my eyes as I've aged and wished my eyelashes hadn't disappeared. Anyhow, our Allergan rep contacted us several weeks ago to tell us all about a new product they were launching, called Latisse.
As well as producing Botox and Juvederm, Allergan holds the patents on several other medicines, one of which is Lumigan. Lumigan is a drug used for glaucoma patients. Much like with Botox, which was originally for opthamologic use, Lumigan patients were noticing a very interesting side effect: they were growing fabulous eye lashes!
Allergan at once began an in depth study, and developed Latisse, a once daily topical medicine that will darken, lengthen and thicken your eyelashes! The girls in my office went wild, as apparently mascara is very expensive and you have to replace it often or get cooties. Latisse is affordable for everyone, and available only through doctors. I am personally using myself as a guniea pig.
If you're interested, call my office at 727.733.1175 or visit us on the web at www.allaboutsmiles.org. We'd be glad to offer you a free cosmetic consultation! See you soon!
