Okemos dentist Dr. Christine Tenaglia DDS, was a featured speaker at the International Association of Comprehensive Aesthetics Conference in San Diego, CA in late July. Tenaglia, who has practiced in the Lansing area for 19 years, addressed over 200 cosmetic dentists and renowned oral health care professionals from around the world. She discussed effective methods for making the public aware that modern technology and new, advanced techniques have changed conventional dentistry. “Dentists who pursue continuing education and update their practices can now provide more effective and comfortable procedures for patients,” said Tenaglia, who studies the latest high-quality standards in oral health at the acclaimed Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies and implements them in her practice at the corner of Okemos and Bennett roads. “It’s important to get the message to people that they have exciting new options in their personal dental experience. This is a convenience and ease available now that can make patients very happy.”
