Pure Joy that Spring is here at Byars Dental!!!

Don't worry, be happy!!! Lovely Spring weather will resume soon! Put a smile back on your face. Have a great day from Byars Dental!

Spring has sprung at Byars Dental

The flowers are blooming and we see buds on the trees. The smell of fresh cut grass is in the air! The start of Spring brings a smile to our faces here at Byars Dental. We have a wonderful view of Spring from our oversized windows in each of our operatories. Be sure to wave when you drive by! Golf? Of course!

Daley Byars is so excited for Spring, she wanted to wear her little orphan Annie hat!

National Children's Dental Health Month

Did you know that February is National Children's Dental Health Month? Good oral healthcare habits start at an early age. Teach your child the importance of regular brushing and flossing and try to reduce sugary liquids from your child's diet. When soda is consumed, be sure that your child brushes or at the very least, rinses her mouth out with water to reduce acid, the byproduct of the metabolism of sugars. Give them the benefit of healthy teeth for a lifetime!

We recently visited the Liberty, Missouri Early Childhood Center and talked about the importance of good oral hygiene to 250 kids ages 3-5. We had a great time and saw some awesome smiles!

Kids, no need to fear, we just got Santa fixed up for his run this year!

Even Santa Claus runs into the occasional snafu! Too many cookies post last Dec. 25th have lead to a nasty abscess and a non-restorable tooth #14 for ole Saint Nick. Never Fear. Byars Dental, the *official dentist of Santa Claus, (*-non official, official dentist) has come to the rescue so that your friend and mine can make it out on his route this year. Shortly after Jan. 1st, when his insurance benefit rolls over, he will return to us for an implant and crown. Have a Happy Holiday Season!

TeamSmile 09 with the Kansas City Chiefs

We spent the day Saturday, November 21st at the Arrowhead Pavillion participating in TeamSmile 09 with the Kansas City Chiefs. We treated approximately 150 children and a great time was had by all! This is a picture of Dr. Byars with Chiefs wide receiver Bobby Wade and Tarrah. Bobby, you have a great looking smile! I bet you were smiling even wider on Sunday after the Chiefs beat the Steelers!

Yikes! No hablo Espanol!

Como se dice, usted tiene enfermedad periodontal y si estuvo ido no tratado, usted podría perder sus dientes? Wow! what does that mean? You have periodontal disease and if left untreated, you could lose your teeth. A difficult thing to tell anyone or hear from someone, especially if there is a language barrier. Recently we were faced with this very dilemma at Byars Dental. Veronica to the rescue! Our dental hygienist Veronica dusted off her spanish skills and made a difficult situation much easier for all! Great job Veronica. We are so happy that you are part of our team.

Scary pink leopard sighting in the Northland!!!

My daughter Daley wanted to be a scary pink leopard for halloween. By the time the trick-or-treaters had arrived, she was pooped out for the night. Oh well, so much for being scary.
