About Michele
More than a little into running and paleo recipes (yoga now too!) but I'm not here to rain on your grains (or anything else) so come along for the ride! I do a little too much of everything (except cleaning), and I enjoy laughing at myself. As long as I'm the one making the jokes, that is. Just kidding. So bring me your angst, your appetite and your frying pan and climb aboard!

While daily oral hygiene is crucial, professional dental cleanings are necessary to remove hardened plaque, known as tartar or calculus, that cannot be removed by brushing and flossing alone. Dental cleanings help to eliminate bacterial buildup and reduce the risk of gum disease. gum disease
