Contests, Prizes and Parties
We want each kiddo to look forward to his or her visit with us. We want them to remember the fun, not the dental work! So we create many unforgettable memories from amazing prizes for doing great in our office, through incentive programs for good brushing or quitting a habit like thumb sucking, to ongoing or special contests and our famous movie theater hosted Patients Appreciation Party!

Christmas Party 2018
We had such an amazing time at this year’s Christmas Party! We got together at Dr. Kasia’s home under a Christmas tree. Malgosia had it catered for us so we were able to relax with all the yummy food and fun gifts. Secret Santa was good to us and our famous White Elephant game gave us some major case of laughs! This year we decided to dress up in our best holiday Ugly Sweaters and spread holiday cheer that way. We even had a contest. Who do you think should have won??? Last, but not least, we finally figured out who actually has a good voice and can carry a tune with our karaoke party. Songs were sung loud and clear! In three different languages… Such a fun time getting together for the holidays! Merry Christmas and Happy New year to all our patients!

So many points scored in bean-bag throws! We also invited some of our neighborhood partners to come hang out with us and host their own arts and crafts. IDEA Lab Kids as well as Ikids had wonderful crafts for the kids and Bach To Rock gave us fun guitar lessons. And lets not forget the amazing Balloon Artists from Blue Sky Fun Times! The works of art they made out of balloons brightened our day. We filled all the little tummies with pizza and popcorn and had everyone watch our favorite movie, Big Hero 6. Our team had so much fun with all the kids putting on tattoos and goofing around. This is one of our favorite events year after year! Thanks to all who came and all who made this fantastic!
