Edina Family Dentists Introduce Mobile Version Of Website

Dr. Sachin Mehta and his associates at Southdale Dental Associates are excited to be providing a mobile version of their practice's dental website

2012-07-29

EDINA, MN, July 29, 2012 (Press-News.org) Dr. Sachin Mehta, Bloomington, MN dentist, and his associates at Southdale Dental Associates are very happy to now be offering a mobile version of their practice's dental website. The mobile site is optimized to be viewed on both smartphone and tablet devices.

"I'm glad that our practice is able to offer a mobile version of our website. It will allow our patients to easily and quickly view our website from their mobile phones even when they are not at home or by a computer. I encourage all of our patients that have smartphones or tablets to log on to our site and give the mobile version a try," said Dr. Mehta, Edina dentist.

Normal websites that load quickly on a computer or laptop can take much longer to load on a mobile phone. This is because certain flash content, images and videos are not designed to function on the small screen of a smartphone. The Eden Prairie cosmetic dentist's mobile site shrinks down the size of many of the images and removes flash content. The result is a website that is optimized for smaller screens and will load quickly.

Many of the features from the full site are also found on the mobile site, including the appointment request form. Patients who want to schedule an appointment with the cosmetic dentist in Bloomington just have to enter in the date, time and nature of their appointment into the online form. Shortly after this, the practice's scheduling coordinator will follow up with a confirmation of the appointment through email or text message.

Patients can also access the patient education section of Dr. Mehta's website. The patient education library is full of helpful dental information to help educate Dr. Mehta's patients.

How Aging Affects the Structure of Your Eyes

2012-07-29

Just as your physical strength tends to diminish with age, your eyes will also start to decline in their overall performance - especially when you reach age 60 and beyond. Some age-related changes in your eyes are completely normal and do not indicate any kind of disease process. For example, presbyopia is a normal development once you pass the age of 40. As your lens begins to harden and lose its natural focusing ability, you will notice that it's harder to focus on nearby objects. Most people compensate for this change by holding reading material further away from ...

Dental Hygiene and Porcelain Veneers

Once placed over your teeth, veneers look and feel like real tooth enamel, allowing them to ...

How Safe is Liposuction?

2012-07-29

Liposuction is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures in the United States today. While generally considered a safe procedure, it is important that you know the risks of liposuction prior to committing to surgery, and that you know how to minimize your risks. Risks of Liposuction The largest risk of liposuction is contour irregularities. When a plastic surgeon over or under corrects an area, the end results can be lumpy, uneven, and dimpled skin. Poor liposuction techniques may also fail to encourage your skin to full firm to your newly toned ...

2012-07-29

The new law aims to fight insurance fraud by banning drivers from using their PIP benefits to ...
