Grapevine Dental Implants Provider Describes Top Things to Look for in a Dentist

Dr. Jonathan Golab, a Grapevine dental implants provider, lists the top things to look for when choosing a dentist.

2011-09-16

LEWISVILLE, TX, September 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) When choosing a dentist, there are many factors to take into account, but some factors are critical - while other ones are only desirable. Here, Dr. Jonathan Golab, a Grapevine dental implants provider, describes the top considerations when selecting a dentist.

1. Personable and Relatable: Patients should select a practitioner who they connect with. Patients should be comfortable with the dentist and office staff - and should ensure that they share the same treatment goals. "The dentist should have your best interests at heart," says Dr. Golab, a porcelain veneers provider. "Your practitioner should not be attempting to persuade you to get treatments you don't want."
2. Complete Examination: The first visit should include a thorough health history - one that's not limited to dental health. The dentist should do x-rays and provide a complete examination. At later visits, the dentist should scrutinize the patient thoroughly, bring physical and dental health records up to date and clean the patient's teeth. He or she should advise patients about how they can improve their dental practices.
3. Well-Run Office: The dentist's office should be hygienic and brightly lit. Staff members should be nice and efficient during administrative tasks. Patients shouldn't wait very long - in either the waiting or the examination room.
4. Latest Technology: Check if the dentist has up-to-date technology. Although some cool gadgets aren't that helpful to patients, a dentist should be aware of the developments in the industry. Newer technology often means patients experience less pain, less treatment time and better care.
5. Provides Information: When patients consider cosmetic dentistry, they should request before and after photos of previous dentistry patients. "You should learn the treatment costs upfront for cosmetic treatments,' cautions Golab, a Bartonville dental care provider. "Make sure that price quotes include all the facility or anesthesia fees - as well as any extra costs."

Starving cancer cells of cholesterol might offer a new way to treat brain tumors

2011-09-16

COLUMBUS, Ohio – A new study suggests that blocking cancer cells' access to cholesterol may offer a new strategy for treating glioblastoma, the most common and deadly form of brain cancer, and perhaps other malignancies. The potential treatment could be appropriate for tumors with a hyperactive PI3K signaling pathway, which accounts for up to 90 percent of glioblastomas cases. Researchers at the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC – James) and at UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive ...

Targeting cholesterol to fight deadly brain cancers

2011-09-16

Blocking the uptake of large amounts of cholesterol into brain cancer cells could provide a new strategy to battle glioblastoma, one of the most deadly malignancies, researchers at UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have found. The study, done in cells lines, mouse models and analysis of tissue from brain cancer patients, uncovered a novel mechanism by which the most commonly activated oncogene, the mutated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), overcomes normal cell regulatory mechanisms to feed large amounts of cholesterol to the brain cancer cells, said ...

Some like it hot -- European fish stocks changing with warming seas

2011-09-16

The first "big picture" study of the effects of rapidly rising temperatures in the northeast Atlantic Ocean shows that a major shift in fish stocks is already well underway. But it isn't all bad news. The research, published today (15th Sept.) in Current Biology, shows that some fishes' losses are other fishes' gain. The study led by Dr Steve Simpson of the University of Bristol in collaboration with researchers from eight other institutions, is the first to combine a suite of European datasets, which included more than 100 million fish, to explore how warming is affecting ...

From Star Wars to science fact: Tatooine-like planet discovered

2011-09-16

Although cold and gaseous rather than a desert world, the newfound planet Kepler-16b is still the closest astronomers have come to discovering Luke Skywalker's home world of Tatooine. Like Tatooine, Kepler-16b enjoys a double sunset as it circles a pair of stars approximately 200 light-years from Earth. It's not thought to harbor life, but its discovery demonstrates the diversity of planets in our galaxy. "Kepler-16b is the first confirmed, unambiguous example of a circumbinary planet - a planet orbiting not one, but two stars," said Josh Carter of the Harvard-Smithsonian ...

Yellow patches around eyelids predict risk of heart problems

2011-09-16

Raised yellow patches of skin (xanthelasmata) around the upper or lower eyelids are markers of an individual's increased risk of having a heart attack or suffering from heart disease, finds research published on bmj.com today. The study, led by Professor Anne Tybjærg-Hansen at the University of Copenhagen, also concludes that white or grey rings around the cornea (arcus corneae) are not linked to an increased risk. Previous research has established that both xanthelasmata and arcus corneae are deposits of cholesterol. However, around half of the individuals who have ...

Seaside fortress was a final stronghold of early Islamic power

2011-09-16

Archaeologists have long known that Yavneh-Yam, an archaeological site between the Israeli cities of Tel Aviv and Ashdod on the Mediterranean coast, was a functioning harbor from the second millennium B.C. until the Middle Ages. Now Tel Aviv University researchers have uncovered evidence to suggest that the site was one of the final strongholds of Early Islamic power in the region. According to Prof. Moshe Fischer of TAU's Department of Archaeology and Near Eastern Cultures and head of the Yavneh-Yam dig, the recent discovery of a bath house from the Early Islamic period ...

Prasugrel: Indications of an additional benefit for some patients, but also of greater harm

2011-09-16

In order to better prevent blood clots, the drugs clopidogrel or prasugrel can be prescribed to patients with acute ischaemia of the heart muscle, in addition to acetylsalicylic acid (ASA). The German Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG) has now investigated whether, in patients whose vessels were dilated by a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the combination of prasugrel plus ASA has a higher patient-relevant benefit than ASA alone, or than combination therapy with clopidogrel plus ASA. The findings of the assessment provide indications that ...

Mobile phone electromagnetic field affects local glucose metabolism in the human brain

2011-09-16

Recent PET-measurements in Turku, Finland, show that the GSM mobile phone electromagnetic field suppresses glucose metabolism in temporoparietal and anterior temporal areas of the hemisphere next to the antenna. Thirteen young healthy males were exposed to the GSM signal for 33 minutes. The study, initiated by Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience (CCN) at University of Turku, was methodologically unique combining the expertice in brain imaging (National PET-Center and CCN), measurements and modeling of radiation (Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority in Finland, STUK) ...

Archivist in the sound library

2011-09-16

People are adept at recognizing sensations such as sounds or smells, even when many stimuli appear simultaneously. But how the association works between the current event and memory is still poorly understood. Scientists at the Bernstein Center and the Ludwig-Maximilians Universität (LMU) München have developed a mathematical model that accurately mimics this process with little computational effort and may explain experimental findings that have so far remained unclear. (PLoS ONE, September 14, 2011) The so-called 'cocktail party-problem' has already kept scientists ...
