Quote of the Month
“There’s something to love in everyday.”
Spring Time
If you and your family are traveling to a place other than the backyard, send us a postcard of your springtime extravaganza and receive extra Ortho lotto tickets from our staff. Spring is a great time to get away from all your school time worries, but this is not a time to forget about your braces. Please keep up good oral hygiene all year long.

Arbor Day
Arbor day this year is the 28th of April. What is Arbor Day you ask? On this day we help to replenish our Earth of its natural resources by planting trees. This will help our environment and give a healthy supply of oxygen to our Earth. So remember to plant a tree today. www.arborday.org
April Foolery
The month of April is a month of laughs and practical jokes. Maybe this is the reason so many of our famous comedians and funny people were born in this month. Some of the funny people are David Letterman, Eddie Murphy, George Lopez, Carol Barnett, Jay Leno, and Jerry Seinfeld. Maybe this is the reason that they all bring us so many great laughs.

Did you know?
Did you know during the day you swallow 2,000 times? This helps flush away bacteria. At nighttime you only swallow about 20 times, this is why it is so important to brush your teeth before you go to sleep. Braces straighten your teeth, but they can also help rid your face of wrinkles and trade them in for a beautiful smile. Did you know that teeth can be feminine? Feminine teeth tend to be rounded and soft where as male teeth are more angular with straighter edges.

Smile
She smiled at the sorrowful stranger.
The smile seemed to make him feel better.
He remembered the past kindness of a friend
and wrote him a thank-you letter.
The friend was so pleased with the thank-you
that he left a large tip after lunch.
The waitress, surprised by the size of the tip,
bet the whole thing on a hunch.
The next day she picked up the winnings.
and gave part to a man on the street.
The man on the street was grateful;
for two days he'd had nothing to eat.
After he finished his dinner,
he left for his small dingy room.
(He didn't know at the moment that
that he might be facing his doom.)
On the way he picked up a shivering puppy
and took him home to get warm.
The puppy was very grateful
to be in out of the storm.
That night the house caught on fire.
The puppy barked the alarm.
He barked 'til he woke the whole household
and saved everyone from harm.
One of the boys that he rescued
grew up to become the president.
All this because of a simple smile
that hadn't cost a cent.
