The fact is that your family and loved ones are counting on YOU for their experience of love, safety, and direction. The massive impact that we have as leaders and role models is unquestionable. That’s why as men and fathers, our commitment to our health and masculine integrity – which are inseparable – speaks volumes, then continues to speak for decades and generations. So if you want to change the course of your family legacy, start prioritizing your lifestyle habits because they determine not only your form and function, but ultimately how you show up as a man. “After working together for 90 days, Kai has had a profound effect on the trajectory of my life” – Will Cordingley –

Denture Care Tips
It’s important to continue proper denture and oral health care, even during the busy summer months. To keep them in good condition, rinse your dentures after meals to prevent buildup and stay hydrated to maintain oral moisture. Avoid leaving dentures in direct sunlight or hot environments, as this can affect the acrylic. Clean them daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleaner to remove bacteria (do not use toothpaste to clean your dentures). For a refreshing feel, store your dentures overnight in water with a bit of mouthwash. Regular denture check-ups are essential to ensure proper fit and function. Enjoy the summer with a confident and comfortable smile!

Let Us Help You Quit!
Are you finally ready to get rid of your cigarettes, for good? No matter what other programs you have tried and no matter how long you have smoked, all you need is a strong desire to quit. At Smartchoice Laser, we apply a low-level laser to your body’s natural energy flow points to stimulate the release of endorphins in the body. These same chemicals are raised artificially when you smoke. Laser treatment causes the body to feel effects similar to what you get when you smoke, relieving the physical withdrawal symptoms. For most people, physical cravings will be significantly reduced or completely eradicated.
Choosing Contact Lenses
Contact lenses are a popular alternative to corrective eyewear. They can be worn full-time or part-time for sports and recreation. The two main categories are soft (or gel) lenses and rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses. Soft lenses are more popular and available in various formats to correct far-sightedness, near-sightedness, and astigmatism. RGP lenses have an important role in certain types of astigmatism and with fitting irregular corneal surfaces. All contact lenses touch eye tissue, and as such are a medical device that must be professionally fit, including training for proper handling and for important hygiene considerations.
Athletic Therapy for Everyone
Athletic Therapy is not just for athletes. It’s a healthcare profession focused on preventing, assessing, and rehabilitating musculoskeletal injuries, including emergency care. Athletic therapists improve muscle and joint mobility and provide pain relief using manual therapies, exercise prescriptions, and taping. They address workplace and motor vehicle accident injuries, chronic or recurring issues, and injuries from sports, falls, or daily activities. Athletic Therapy follows the Sports Medicine Model of Care to ensure effective care. Despite the name, Athletic Therapy is for everyone, offering comprehensive care to enhance overall physical health and well-being.
Pain in the Mouth?
Every now and then, denture wearers may complain about irritation, pain, or even sore gums. Ill-fitting dentures are a primary culprit, leading to pressure points and sore spots. Over time, natural bone resorption changes the shape of the ridge(gum), making initially well-fitting dentures uncomfortable. Poor oral hygiene, including sleeping with your dentures in, can cause gum inflammation, exacerbating discomfort. If dentures are not properly aligned, they can affect bite and jaw alignment, causing facial pain, headaches, jaw and joint discomfort, and many other symptoms associated with TMJ disorder. Regular denture check-ups are crucial for maintaining comfort and oral health.

Avoid Summer Food Poisoning
Foodborne illness peaks in the summer, as more people are cooking outside without the safety controls of a kitchen. Symptoms of food poisoning typically include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever. The severity and duration of symptoms vary depending on the type and amount of contaminated food ingested. Common causes of food poisoning include improper food handling, inadequate cooking, cross-contamination, and consuming expired or spoiled food. It is essential to practice good hygiene, proper food storage, thorough cooking, and regular handwashing to prevent foodborne illnesses. If food poisoning is suspected, seeking medical attention, staying hydrated, and resting are crucial for recovery and avoiding complications.
