2013-04-19

FARMINGTON HILLS, MI, April 19, 2013 (Press-News.org) Earning the highest possible customer satisfaction rating of 5 stars for four straight years, The Colony Dentist has won its fourth consecutive Talk of the Town Customer Satisfaction Award in the Health & Medical -- Dentists category.

The Talk of the Town Awards, presented by Talk of the Town News, Customer Care News magazine and Celebration Media U.S., honor companies and professionals that provide excellent customer service as reported by their customers through no-cost, user-review websites, blogs, social networks, business rating services, and other honors and accolades. This data is analyzed by a team of researchers who calculate a company's CM Power Rating. Only those that receive a 4-star to 5-star rating receive the Talk of the Town Customer Satisfaction Award.

David Hubbell, D.D.S., founded The Colony Dentist dental practice in 2008, but his experience spans more than 20 years from his graduation in 1988 from Baylor College of Dentistry. Located in The Colony, his new practice is not far from the community of Grapevine, where he practiced for nearly two decades. In addition to providing general dentistry services, Dr. Hubbell is an expert in restorative and cosmetic dentistry. His services include implant tooth replacement and the full scope of general dentistry.

Dr. Hubbell attends countless hours of continuing education to ensure he provides patients with the latest and best possible treatments. "Dr. Hubbell is well trained and extremely versatile in his knowledge and abilities as well as being well known as a consultant for laboratories and other dental professionals," says Office Manager Faye.

He has lectured to and trained hundreds of dentists in high technology and restorative techniques during the past several years, and in 2004 he became a certified CEREC trainer, and an internationally certified CEREC trainer in 2006. The CEREC system is a great benefit for patients, using porcelain ceramics bonded directly onto the tooth, and restores teeth in one of the most natural-looking ways in just one visit.

Dr. Hubbell and his team strive to ensure patients are satisfied with their experience in the office each and every time. "Patient satisfaction is and will continue to be our goal for our patients," says Hubbell.

Dr. Hubbell enjoys his job and likes helping patients look and feel their best. His motto is: Anyone can make a full set of new veneers or front crowns, but it takes a true artist to make just one and make it look natural. That is why he makes most of them himself -- to get what he really wants.

In addition to serving patients' needs, The Colony Dentist also supports local community groups, including the North Texas Food Pantry, CCA, The Colony High School athletics programs, community health and education initiatives, and the chamber of commerce.

Dr. Hubbell has extensive training in the field. Following dental school, where he received six awards including the Dean's Honor List and the International College of Dentists' Outstanding Scholastic Achievement Award, Dr. Hubbell performed an elective one-year hospital general practice residency at the University of Utah Medical Center. In 2004 he completed the Oral Implant Preceptorship at the University of Texas Dental School in San Antonio, and was also awarded a Fellowship in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists; he is currently working on his master's degree.

The Colony Dentist is located at 3805 Main Street, Suite 114 in The Colony. For more information about the practice, call 972-624-0068 or go online to www.thecolonydentist.com.

Studies: Longer Hours Not To Blame For Medical Mistakes

The number of hours that medical interns work is legendary. As of 2003, a typical young doctor was on call for up to 36 hours at a time. As of 2011, that number was 30 hours. It's not surprising that many people have come to fear that exhausted interns may cause more medical or surgical errors. As a result, in 2011, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) passed nationwide standards limiting interns to 16-hour shifts. However, according to two recent studies published in JAMA Internal Medicine, shorter shifts may not lead to safer hospitals. ...

A recent article in USA Today points out that surgeons leave behind surgical items in their patients more than 12 times per day. In addition, an investigation conducted by USA Today found that although items such as clamps, forceps and other surgical items are sometimes ...
