Avoid Denture DIY

Trying to adjust or repair your denture yourself can easily cause irreparable and permanent damage and negatively affect how they fit. If you break your denture, if a tooth falls out, if you notice they’re cracked, or if they’re simply uncomfortable and you’re feeling like they need an adjustment, a professional denturist can help. Denturists will ensure that any repairs are completed properly, eliminating any problems that could occur if you try to fix your dentures yourself. Most adjustments can be made while you wait, and today’s modern technology means that many repairs can be completed within an hour.

Tick and Heartworm Season is Here

There are several kinds of ticks crawling around Manitoba, including the Deer Tick which is responsible for transmitting Lyme Disease. Symptoms of Lyme Disease include fever, sore joints, lethargy, and a loss of appetite. Ticks tend to latch on in areas with less fur such as ears, eyes, groin, underbelly and paw pads. Make sure you are performing thorough full body checks for ticks on a regular basis. Heartworm is transmitted by infected mosquitos. Symptoms may include mild persistent cough, reluctance to exercise, fatigue, and weight loss. Consult your veterinarian for the best preventative measures and medications for your pets.

Grief Therapy for Children & Teens

Therapy plays a crucial role in helping children cope with grief and loss and provides a safe environment for them to explore and process their emotions. Grief is a complex emotion that is expressed very differently in children than it is in adults and parents often express how challenging it is to help their children. Through specialized techniques such as play therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy, therapists assist children in expressing their feelings and developing effective coping strategies to promote resilience and healing. Therapists collaborate with parents to create a supportive network that acknowledges the unique experiences of each child and empowers them to move forward positively, fostering emotional well-being and growth.
