This Halloween, our dental practices embraced the season with festive decorations, costume contests, and trick-or-treat giveaways! Team members dressed up as their favorite characters, from their favorite animals to super heroes, bringing smiles and fun to our patients of all ages.
In honor of World Mental Health Day, the People Team has put together some valuable tools and resources to support your mental well-being—not just for the day, but every day. We understand how crucial it is to prioritize mental health, especially in the fast-paced world we navigate together.
Taking time to care for yourself is essential to showing up as your best self—whether at work or at home. We’re here to ensure you have what you need to thrive, and we encourage you to make use of these tools whenever you need them.
If you have any questions or want to explore more resources, feel free to reach out to the People Team. Your well-being matters to us.
As we move into October, I wanted to take a moment to highlight some important days and events on our OM calendar this month. Please take note and help ensure we’re all set for these special days!
All Month Long – Dental Hygiene Awareness Month
We’ll be promoting the importance of dental hygiene throughout the month. Let’s make sure our families are aware of resources, fun activities, and tips to encourage kids to brush and floss daily!
October 4th – World Smile Day
A perfect day for us to celebrate what we do! Let’s plan to bring extra cheer and smiles to everyone we interact with on this day. Feel free to get creative with smile-themed decorations, activities, or photo opportunities.
October 14th – Indigenous Peoples’ Day
A day to honor and recognize the history and cultures of Indigenous peoples. We encourage reflection and education around this important day. Let’s consider incorporating some educational materials or displays to foster awareness!
October 24th – Food Day: Bakers Bash
A fun and delicious event! We’ll be celebrating Food Day with our Bakers Bash. Let’s prepare to bake up some treats, and if you have ideas for interactive baking activities with families, we’d love to hear them.
October 28th-31st – Halloween Dress Up
Our Halloween dress-up event will run for the last four days of the month! Everyone is encouraged to wear fun costumes and bring the festive spirit. Be sure to coordinate with the team to ensure we have everything ready for a spooky, fun celebration.
Thank you all for your continued dedication and hard work. Let’s make October a month full of smiles, fun, and awareness!
Our Pleasantburg office held a “Dental Spirit Week” at their office. Monday was Crazy Sock Day, Tuesday was Crazy Hair Day, Wednesday was Mix Match Day, and Thursday was Orange Day. What a great way for staff and kiddos to have fun!
