More CALENDAR, pg. 15 DENTAL MATERIALS Charles Goodyear invented a denture base material back in the mid 1800's. This material was called "Vulcanite". Vulcanite is a dark brown, semi-rigid rubber. Since then, denture base materials have come a long way, and vast changes and improvements have been made. Today very modern plastics and acrylics are used. The artificial teeth on a denture were made from such materials as bone and ivory. Precious metals such as gold and silver were also tried. Even wood was used to make teeth! Finally, porcelain and plastic teeth have replaced the former materials. We've come a long way since the days of "wooden teeth". Denture technology has been vastly improved for denture wearers, and they are continually discovering new techniques and materials. Today, more than 5 million Canadian adults are wearing dentures. That's more than one out of every four people in Canada! You do not need a referral; simply call the office direct for an appointment. Creating confident smiles since 1982.

By Cory Soal R.H.A.D. . . . Lend Me Your Ears HOW DOES LOUD NOISE CREATE HYPERTENSION? It appears to affect the nervous system, signalling the peripheral blood vessels to constrict as though under attack/ This triggers a surge of adrenaline and other fight-orflight chemicals into the bloodstream - a response that carries with it the potential for glandular or cardiovascular changes, in other words, unwanted noise creates the same final results as increased stress (try to avoid)!
