The First 25
![]() by Dr. Gary Williams, DMD
So, you finish your career training, ready to go to work, and someone says to you, “enjoy yourself, ‘cause the time is going to fly.” And you think to yourself, “yeah, right!” And then it happens. Suddenly one day I find myself writing an article about practicing dentistry in my home town for 25 years…and counting. I can’t believe it. Family Dental Care began in a renovated apartment, here on South Robinson Ave., in Pen Argyl, in 1989. When the door opened that first morning, there were a grand total of zero patients of record. And I have been blessed ever since. We have cared for your families over the years and catered a lot to your children. Now, not that I’m aging or anything; but now I treat your grandchildren…and more. Where did the time go? We still love seeing your children after 25 years. That’s why we offer free dental exams to all kids under the age of 3 years. We’ve learned some of what makes for good oral health, and we still love to care for the little ones, and watch them grow up in our practice. Yes, time flies when you are having fun, and so far, it’s been a hoot! Stay tuned for announcements about our special “Sealant Day”. Thank you Slate Belt residents and kids. Looking forward to the next 25! BHS Class of 1986
