In her daily practice, she sees mostly kids and teenagers and is quite surprised how little everybody seems to know about oral hygiene. It is fun, educational, and entertaining. The feedback from staff and parents is always positive. The highlights of the session are the pink tablets that she hands out to the kids to show them where they missed out on brushing. If your school is interested, now or in the future, in her free service for class 7 to 8 students, feel free to get in contact with Bachmann Orthodontics 094481128.

Halloween is almost upon us and it's getting bigger every year. How is it in your neighbourhood? Do you enjoy it - why or why not? In some parts of town, where it has become huge, residents are requesting lolly donations to help them cope. Is it right to ask for donations? Is Halloween becoming too stressful? Do you live in a Halloween-crazed area but prefer to stay out of it?
