FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DIAMOND DENTAL, PC SPONSORS
CHILDREN'S
POSTER, COLORING AND ESSAY CONTESTS
January 25, 2000
--
Scarsdale, NY - To coincide with National Children's Dental
Health Month which takes place in February, Diamond Dental, PC, located
at 10 Dunwoodie Street in Scarsdale, NY, announced plans to sponsor
children's poster, coloring and essay contests for area youngsters to
foster awareness about the importance of regular dental checkups.
Invitations have gone out to several schools, but the contests are open
to all children. Winners will be announced February 28th and will be
feted at Diamond Dental's "Open House" scheduled for Sunday, March 5,
2000. Visitors will have an opportunity to see the winning entries, tour
the newly established offices and meet Dr. George Lee and Dr. Danny
Salem. Winners will receive free dental screenings, savings bonds,
certificates of achievement and an assortment of other gifts.
Drs. Lee and Salem also plan visits to school classrooms making
presentations to youngsters, while also extending invitations to tour their
dental office - all in an effort to alleviate children's trepidation about
visiting the dentist. Advocating education and familiarization, Drs. Lee and
Salem are participating in the American Dental Association's outreach designed
to bring awareness to youngsters and their families.
Drs. Lee and Salem, 1998 honor
graduates of Columbia University, School of
Dental arid Oral Surgery, have recently opened their comprehensive
practice bridging dental and medical considerations following their training at
some of the area's most prestigious medical centers including North Shore
University Hospital, Sloan Kettering, Columbia Presbyterian, Mount Sinai and
Hackensack University Hospital among others.
