Delta Dental of Arkansas

We recruited Brad Clothier as our company EVP and COO a few years ago, and he's been on a mission to create healthy smiles for Arkansans ever since. Brad, we're so glad to have you. https://lnkd.in/gyAMjXvb

Let's talk makeup. Our guest this morning on THV11 The Vine was Shelby Brogdon, OD of McFarland Eye care. With the holidays coming, we all want to look our best. But as Dr. Brogdon explained, some makeup habits can cause eye infections and styes and contribute to Dry Eye disease. Catch the segment with host Ashley King online (we’ll post the link soon) to learn how to practice proper eye care hygiene, why permanent eyeliner tattoos are a big no and what to consider when getting lash extensions. Who would have thunked that eye shadow or eyeliner could harm our eye health if not used correctly. Another reason to get regular eye exams. (Yes, we offer vision insurance.) Great tips. Thanks, Dr. Brogdon and Ashley. #visioninsurance #eyehealth #makeup

Good Morning, are you catching some extra z's today? #standardtime Or maybe you're indulging in some TV and streaming time? If you haven't seen our new commercial yet, you can catch it right here, "Time for a Dentist Visit." #dentistvisit #selfcare #healthysmiles

A huge thank-you to the Arkansas dentists who are volunteering today during the third annual Operation Stand Down. In Little Rock, the Ned Alley DDS, PLLC dental practice served as one of seven host sites for dental professionals to donate their time, expertise and compassion to provide free dental care for eligible veterans, while a grant from the #deltadentalarfoundation provided funding for supplies. For many veterans, it’s been years since their last dental visit. Today, they are getting the relief and care they need. “Vets have served our country, and serving them today is one way for us to give back,” said Dr. Alley. Many dentists volunteering today serve on our board and/or are network providers, and we’re humbled and deeply grateful for their generosity and goodwill. Thank you. #dentist #givingback #veteransday

Y’all know Zach, our friendly dinosaur who teaches kids how to brush and floss. He’s on Cloud 9. Because. He. Was. On. TV! Yesterday, he accompanied Dr. Keith Jones of Small Bites Dentistry (and one of our board members) to KATV’s Little Rock ARC with Isley Gooden. Dr. Jones explained how parents could teach their kids to enjoy Halloween and occasional other sweet treats and keep healthy smiles. Thanks for having us, Isley. #oralhealtheducation #dentist #communityoutreach

Brian, who stars in our new commercial, is too busy with work and family to make a dentist appointment. But then. . . Take a look. #dentist #oralhealth #VisitTheDentist

How can we support our #veterans? Get the word out that free dental care is available for them November 1. Dr. Alley Ned Alley , went on KATV, Little Rock Arc, yesterday to visit with Isley Gooden about Operation Stand Down. Appointments must be made by emailing Gina.Chandler@arkansas.gov or by contacting the local VA office. Take a look at share the word. https://lnkd.in/gcZceEtM Thank you, Dr. Alley, and all other dental professionals who will be volunteering to treat veterans, for your service. And kudos to our #deltadentalarfoundation for funding the dental supplies at all 7 OSD locations. #focusoncommunity #dentist #freedentalcare

Y'all, we have a new commercial out: Time for a Dentist Visit. Meet Brian, an executive with a full work schedule and a busy family life. He has no time for the dentist or so he thinks. But an imaginary dentist (or is she real?) convinces him otherwise. Take a look, https://bit.ly/4eTmzk9. #oralhealth #visitthedentist #healthysmiles

We don't talk nearly enough about the M-word: Menopause. Let's change that, starting today, World Menopause Day. PBS has just premiered the new documentary "The (M) Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause." But wait, you say, menopause and Delta Dental? What's the connection? The producers included two Delta Dental executives as the film's only source of insights into the oral health and menopause link. Sarah Chavarria, CEO and President of Delta Dental Insurance Company, Delta Dental Ins. , and Teri Barichello, DMD of Delta Dental of Oregon and Alaska, Moda Health , share compelling insights into how menopause impacts women's oral and overall health.

Another reminder because this is so important--please share with your network. Free dental care for eligible #veterans is available on Nov. 1. #OperationStandDown Dentists at 7 Arkansas locations will volunteer their time and expertise to provide acute/urgent pain relief, oral exams, X-rays, extractions, cleanings and more. Appointments are required and must be made in advance. Our #deltadentalARFoundation serves as a major sponsor with a grant for dental supplies to be shared among participating clinics. https://bit.ly/409AUV7 Please share. The photos show last year's OSD at the dental practice of our board member Ned Alley. Thank you! #Veteransday #dentalcare #focusoncommunity
