My name is Ralph Parkin.
I am a practicing general dentist in Colorado Springs who has seen literally tens of thousands of patients with all types of dental problems, dental questions and concerns. As I worked to solve problems for them, I observed that patients were often not succeeding in gaining and maintaining good oral health care. Their home care was failing them, causing them to have minor to major dental problems. This ran the gamut from gingivitis (puffy gums that bleed easily when brushed or flossed) to complete toothlessness. They experienced pain, embarrassment and inconvenience. I realized that whatever they were doing wasn’t working for them. They didn’t set out to have toothaches and end up toothless, having to glue their false teeth in their mouth every day. But it has happened to tens of millions of Americans and more are joining this unfortunate group every day. They are losing the “battle to keep their teeth for a lifetime” and they didn’t need to be losers!
You might say my excellent staff and I are on a crusade to help, where ever we can, reduce the number of people who lose teeth due to gum disease and tooth decay. This website is part of that effort. If we find a dental product that works better or is safer to use than what a person can find in a grocery store we will do our best to get that information out to our readers. If there is a new technique that helps solve dental problems quicker, easier and for less cost we will let you know about it also. Currently on our blog page (home page) we have included several articles and videos on a procedure that meets all the criteria for a great new solution to the problem of replacing lost teeth. Mini dental implants are revolutionizing the practice of dentistry and that is exciting to say the least. Check out the blog page!
