Quotes

 

“My mom was given no help at all and it lit a fire in me to learn more”

 

“I think we often wonder what we should do what we hear someone has cancer, and I think these is a great thing we can do” 

 

“That in itself could have been what took her life during her treatment process” 

 

“We need to make sure the bacteria is down while limiting anything that may cause uncontrollable bleeding” 

 

“If you have someone that isn't a regular flosser, while they are going through treatments is not the time to start”

 

“When you have a dry mouth, you have an acidic mouth” 

 

“The more we can aid that remineralization process and keep that PH into healthier levels that will help to avoid long term health issues down the road”
