As a single mother, my mom was a trailblazer in the community. In 1974, she opened the first International Market in Las Vegas. At it’s height, she operated a 5000 square foot market by the Stratosphere with a second location in North Las Vegas. I have fond memories of running up and down the aisles with …
Imagine being sick with a disease like chicken pox or hepatitis, and while you’re sick you decide to go the the doctor to see what can be done. After running some tests, the doctor confirms you have the disease and prescribes medicine or a course of therapy to treat it. But instead of following the doctors …
At Dee for Dentist, choosing the companies/suppliers we work with is a serious decision. Quality, respect, and relationships are what we focus on above all else. Although pricing is an important consideration, our belief is that if a company treats its employees right, makes good decisions, is involved in their community, and focuses on product quality …
It’s an exciting day in the world of digital dentistry. This morning we received the long awaited announcement that Invisalign will finally accept digital impressions from CEREC. This is literally the dental equivalent of Ross and Rachel finally getting together. CEREC & Invisalign are the market leaders in both their fields so the natural merging of these 2 technologies is …
This past weekend we hosted our daughter Ellie’s 4th birthday party at Fidgets Indoor Playground. You know how we love to support local small business so we had to do a blog post about this place. Yohanna and her husband are the owner/operators and it’s obvious in all the little details. From a cleanliness standpoint, Mike was …

You may be wondering how Nordstom knew that was suspicious, well it’s because it was 4 transactions totaling over $2000.00 worth of Chanel perfume. After …
At Dee for Dentist, we are all about tradition. Apparently our latest tradition is going to a delicious steak house for our anniversary Christmas party. This year we took the crew to Del Frisco’s Steak House. If you’ve never been here, you’re missing out. It’s Mike’s favorite restaurant and we’ve been trying for the last couple …
Drumroll please . . . . After an exhaustive search, I am so excited to introduce the latest addition to the Dee for Dentist family, my friend and fellow UNLV Dental School alum Dr. Emily Browner. My “sister from another mister” comes to us after practicing for 3 years in Texas. Family brought her back to …
Recently we had a woman call the office asking for pricing on dental implants. When it comes to quoting prices over the phone, we try and avoid it mainly because we haven’t had the opportunity to diagnose what the actual problem is.

I was feeling kind of bummed that our 2014 Q4 Fills Good contest didn’t receive a single submission. Seriously Vegas?!? We are giving away $1500 no-strings-attached and not one local non-profit could spare 5 minutes to tell us about how their organization helps children in Southern Nevada? Well at Dee for Dentist we turn lemons into lemonade. …
