Dr. Jordan Green Completes Cosmetic Dentistry Course to Enhance Full Mouth Reconstruction in Midland, TX

Midland, TX Dentist, Dr. Jordan Green, Completes AACD Cosmetic Dentistry Course

With full mouth reconstruction, we are rebuilding the body by marrying cosmetics with the science and function of the restorations.

Dr. Jordan Green of The Dental Studio of Midland recently completed a course with the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD) entitled, “Esthetic Professional Complex Restorative Mentorship.” Dental full mouth reconstruction is more than just improving a patient’s ability to use their mouth properly, as it is also a form of cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Green works with Drs. Tye Thompson and Mallory Layman at their Midland, TX practice to combine dentistry with esthetic art, helping patients enjoy a healthy, attractive smile.

“With full mouth reconstruction, we are rebuilding the body by marrying cosmetics with the science and function of the restorations,” says Dr. Green. “I am excited to become licensed in California to offer these complex and challenging cases to more patients.”

The speaker for the course was Bruce Crispin, who lectured on complex fixed restorative procedures and full mouth rehabilitation. Full mouth reconstruction can involve many different dental procedures, all with the end goal of restoring both function and appearance to a damaged or flawed smile. The Dental Studio of Midland offers many complex treatments to solve a variety of patient needs, including cosmetic dentistry solutions. Some of the most common full mouth reconstruction procedures include:

  • •    Dental implants
  • •    Crown lengthening
  • •    Dental crowns and bridges
  • •    Porcelain veneers
  • •    Invisalign® clear braces

Full mouth reconstruction is a procedure that is often recommended when patients require multiple different treatments to restore their smile. Each treatment plan can improve both the esthetic look of patients’ smiles, as well as the way their mouths function, enhancing their ability to eat, speak and even breath. The doctors at The Dental Studio of Midland perform in-depth consultations and examinations with patients to fully understand their needs, wants and smile goals. After the treatment plan is complete, patients can return to normal oral function and show off their smile with both comfort and confidence.

The Dental Studio of Midland makes receiving full mouth reconstruction simple for patients through their investment in state-of-the-art technology. The cutting-edge technology at the practice allows the dentists to gather more information and design better treatment plans. For many patients, this means less time in the dentist office and more accurate, quick care. This technology is especially useful for cosmetic dentistry through the use of digital impressions and computerized design.

Patients interested in full mouth reconstruction or who would like to enhance the look of their smile with cosmetic dentistry in Midland, TX are encouraged to schedule a consultation with the dentists at The Dental Studio of Midland. Appointments can be made by calling 432-687-0629 or visiting the website at http://www.midlanddentalstudio.com.

Phoenix Children’s Hospital Receives $1 Million From 7th Annual Bob’s Biker Blast


Phoenix Children’s Logo

“Nothing should stand in the way of a child getting the medical care they need,” said Bob Parsons.

Hosted by well-known businessman Bob Parsons, Harley-Davidson of Scottsdale and GO AZ Motorcycles, Bob’s Biker Blast celebrates the diversity within motorcycling and the positive impact bikers have on their community. In addition to proceeds generated by the event, Bob Parsons announced that The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation would provide a grant to bring total support for Phoenix Children’s to $1 million. Including this year, Bob’s Biker Blast has contributed $3.2 million to the hospital since 2014.

“Nothing should stand in the way of a child getting the medical care they need,” said Bob Parsons. “It is critically important that we continue to support organizations like Phoenix Children’s Hospital and its work to ensure all children have access to quality care, regardless of their financial or medical situation.”

Thousands of bikers, motorcycle enthusiasts and music lovers gathered in Scottsdale for the event and rallied in support of the hospital. Highlights from the three-day festival included the “I Ride for PCH” kick-off ride – where nearly 500 riders participated in support of local kids and their families – and a headlining performance by Darius Rucker.

“Homeless youth often face serious illness, injury and depression. Most lack both the access and resources necessary to address these issues,” said businesswoman Renee Parsons. “Phoenix Children’s Hospital answers the call for help by providing programs like the Crews’n Healthmobile to bring healthcare directly to those most in need.”

The additional grant provided by The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation will provide support over a five-year period for the hospital’s Homeless Youth Outreach program. Proceeds raised during Bob’s Biker Blast will benefit the Hope Fund at Phoenix Children’s. This special fund allows the hospital to meet the most pressing needs for technology, research and charitable care.

“It’s no surprise Bob Parsons is as passionate about giving back to the community as he is about business, golf and motorcycles,” said Steve Schnall, senior vice president and chief development officer at Phoenix Children’s Hospital Foundation. “This event helps the community connect to the Hospital’s mission, and we’re incredibly grateful for the visionary gift made by The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation this year. We can’t thank them enough for helping the hospital sustain the kind of world-class care Arizona kids deserve.”

As one of the largest children’s hospitals in the country, Phoenix Children’s provides care across more than 75 pediatric specialties. It is Arizona’s only children’s hospital recognized by U.S. News & World Report’s Best Children’s Hospitals with rankings in all 10 specialties.

MedCurrent Partners with openDoctor to Enable Seamless Radiology Clinical Decision Support for Ordering Providers


“We partnered with Medcurrent to provide our clients with not only a verified tool but a user friendly Clinical Decision Support Mechanism that meets the AUC mandate,” said Joe Marino, CEO of openDoctor.

MedCurrent Corporation, a global leader in radiology Clinical Decision Support (CDS) solutions, today announced a partnership with openDoctor, a leader in patient scheduling automation and referring provider engagement technology. As a result, MedCurrent’s OrderWise® CDS solution will be integrated into openDoctor’s physician engagement platform to give ordering providers a seamless way to meet the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Appropriate Use Criteria (AUC) mandate for advanced imaging set to begin in January 2020.

As a qualified Clinical Decision Support Mechanism (CDSM) by CMS, MedCurrent’s OrderWise® CDS platform guides clinicians through clinical decision pathways to help them order the right diagnostic imaging tests for their patients at the point of care. OrderWise® incorporates diagnostic imaging guidelines from Intermountain Healthcare (IH), the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Foundation—all CMS qualified Provider-Led Entities (qPLEs).

“This partnership means that clinicians who use the openDoctor platform to place advanced imaging orders will now have access to a CMS-qualified Clinical Decision Support Mechanism directly in their radiology ordering workflow,” said John Adziovsky, CEO of MedCurrent. “We are very excited to be working with openDoctor to enable physicians to meet regulatory requirements and provide their patients with more appropriate, evidence-based care with seamless end-user experience.”

Through the integration, ordering physicians will be able to access OrderWise® directly within openDoctor’s order entry module. Once the physician identifies a patient requiring advanced imaging tests, he/she will be able to easily launch OrderWise® with a single click. OrderWise® will obtain inputs from the physician and provide evidence-based recommendations on ordering appropriateness. The openDoctor platform will subsequently send the resulting order, with evidence of AUC consultation, to any third-party system in order to complete the end-to-end workflow.

“We partnered with Medcurrent to provide our clients with not only a verified tool but a user friendly Clinical Decision Support Mechanism that meets the AUC mandate,” said Joe Marino, CEO of openDoctor. “Our partnership with Medcurrent strengthens our complete solution offering to contain all the digital tools necessary to automate and accelerate the ordering to scheduling journey for referring providers, imaging centers and patients.”

The National Women’s Business Council Announces Continued Support for Small Business Saturday


News Image

“Women-owned businesses are increasing and the smart entrepreneur recognizes the impact that Small Business Saturday has on economic growth,” said Liz Sara, Chair of the NWBC. “We remain committed to ensuring that this day benefits the estimated 13 million women-owned businesses in the U.S.”.

The National Women’s Business Council (NWBC), a non-partisan, federal advisory committee that serves as an independent source of advice and policy recommendations to the President, Congress, and the Administrator of the U.S. Small Business Administration on issues that affect women business owners and entrepreneurs, is calling upon the public to participate in this year’s Small Business Saturday (November 30) and support small businesses of all kinds.

After eight years of celebrating Small Business Saturday, consumers have invested about 85 billion dollars in small businesses, and these firms comprise 4.8 trillion dollars of the nation’s Gross Domestic Product according to the Small Business Economic Impact Study (AMEX).

The study also found that when a consumer shops at a local business, an average of 67 cents per dollar stays within the local economy unlike an average of 43 cents for large corporations. Small businesses also employ many residents from the local community, thus increasing their community’s overall economic growth through higher profits and lower unemployment. Consumers’ local impact during the busy holiday shopping season can be a game changer. Further, every dollar spent at small businesses creates an additional 50 cents in local business activity as a result of employee spending and businesses purchasing local goods and services.

The National Women’s Business Council is the federal government’s only independent voice for women entrepreneurs and fully understands the importance of this day. The Council has been committed to advocating for women-owned businesses for the past three decades.

According to The State of Women-Owned Businesses Report, there are nearly 13 million women owned firms in the U.S. accounting for 42% of all businesses. That means 4 out of every 10 businesses in the United States are now women-owned. Consumers should shop local women-owned firms on Small Business Saturday to ensure continued economic growth for women entrepreneurs.

“Women-owned small businesses are on the rise and the smart entrepreneur recognizes the impact that days like Small Business Saturday have on their economic growth,” said Liz Sara, Chair of the NWBC. “At NWBC, we remain committed to ensuring that this special day makes a difference and continues to benefit the estimated 13 million women-owned businesses across the country.”
