February 2024: Tips, eNews & More!
 

Congratulations to Dr. Ted Margel for being voted as one of Toronto's Best Dentists of 2024! Thank you to all of our lovely patients and to the Post City Magazines and Streets of Toronto.



 
Did you know 2024 is a leap year? If your birthday is on February 29th, you have some interesting company! Even though February can sometimes seem dreary with cloudy skies and cold weather, there are fun events to look forward to this month including the Family Day long weekend and Valentine's Day!

February is also Heart Month, which brings attention to the importance of cardiovascular health and what we can do to reduce our risk of cardiovascular disease. Our featured article this month focuses on the link between your oral health and heart health. A beautiful and healthy smile contributes directly to a healthier heart!

If we haven't seen you yet this year, be sure to book a check-up appointment with us so we can make sure your oral health is on track.

Have a safe and healthy month,
