(A) Denturist "BABY BOOMERS" AGING WE BUILD BEAUTIFUL SMILES! Consultations are always free!! There will be an increase in "seniors" in Canada between 1997 and 2017 of 36.5 percent. While the boomer generation has benefited from better restorative dental care, there will still be a big need for prosthetic services. It is anticipated that the seniors of 2017 will have 6.6 more natural teeth than today's senior. Even today's senior is demonstrating remarkable differences from previous generations. According to the statistics Canada 1995 census, there are more than 3.6 million seniors in Canada today. 92 percent of them live in their own home and 75 percent of those living at home rate their health as good, very good or excellent. As a patient demographic, the baby boomer generation is unique. They are better educated, making them more sophisticated, demanding consumers. They will not age "gracefully". A survey of 1200 boomers found some startling results: 76 percent were convinced they look younger than actual age• 73 percent believe 50-year olds from a generation ago, look older than today's 50-year olds• 77 percent think women worry more about an aging facial appearance than men.• Esthetics will obviously play a vital role in any removable prosthetic treatment required by this generation. For a younger more natural smile, give our office a call.

Residents can use their GreenCart for food scraps and compostable papers like paper towels and hot bever- age paper cups. "Halton residents continue to be among the best in the province when it comes to participating in waste diver- sion programs like recycling and composting, increasing the residential diversion rate in Halton from 40 per cent in 2007 to 60 per cent, but there is still more we can do," said Gary Carr, Halton Regional chair. "The new Blue Box items, continued participation in the GreenCart program, and the decreased garbage limit will keep waste out of the landfi ll and help conserve this very valuable resource. Extend- ing the life of the landfi ll four more years will provide a sav- ings of $15 million for taxpay- ers."

Meaghan spoke about Rosa Parks on March 20. The school and regional level public speaking compe- titions develop oratory skills, self-confi dence and are a great experience for students to have a chance to stand up in front of an audience and communicate their ideas. Oral language is funda- mental to thinking and learn- ing in all areas of the cur- riculum. All students benefi t from participation in oral language activities that in- volve higher-order thinking skills. Oral language can pro- vide easy access to learning and enable students to make use of a wide range of abili- ties and skills (excerpt from A Guide to Effective Literacy Instruction, Ontario Ministry of Education).
