Additionally, using the Waterlase® for gum procedures reduces bleeding, post-operative pain, swelling and the need for pain medication in many cases. That means a new level of comfort and satisfaction for your entire family. Ⅵ Sterilization The laser sterilizes the tooth as it removes decay. This is very important. Because of bacterial contamination, many of you have had old fillings replaced with either new fillings, or in many cases, with crowns--and sometimes even root canals!! The reoccurrence of decay under fillings is a primary reason so many root canals are needed. Since this new laser sterilizes the tooth as it removes decay, and since many dentists now use ‘bonded’ filling materials enriched with fluoride, the chances of ever having recurrent decay under that new filling are much lower. Ⅵ Great for Teenagers The Waterlase® is especially great for teenagers. Sure, if the dentist is very good, shots should not really be painful. But KNOWING you’re getting a shot is psychologically painful even if you can’t feel the needle--especially for teenagers. By not getting a shot, not feeling the vibration of the drill, and by not hearing the loud drill, kids never become afraid of the dentist, so they don’t grow up to be adults afraid of the dentist.

By incorporating laser technology into our dental practice, we are changing dentistry. It is no longer yesterday’s world of painful shots, large silver mercury fillings, and fearful patients. Lasers have improved the lives of patients and their dentists. Technology is something that makes life better. Better in this case is better clinical results, improved patient comfort, less use of anesthesia and antibiotics. We are proud to be one of the first dentists in Fairfax County to offer this revolutionary technology. Since August 2003, Dr. Fox has completed over 3,000 laser fillings with no needle/no pain/no numbness. If you’ve been putting off going to the dentist because you were nervous about the drill and needle, you don’t have to put it off any longer!

By Paul Frommelt The Connection

ust days after winning his third consecutive AAA Virginia state Jboys tennis singles title and fourth consecutive doubles title, Robinson senior Drew Courtney lists the Robinson boys tennis team’s 2006 and the squad’s title this year as his two favorite moments of his high school career. “Winning the state title for the first time in school history, that was an awesome experience,” said Courtney. “Winning the team Photo by AAA VHSL Boys Tennis

Sharing it with all my friends and family and teammates,” he said. “I love winning individual titles, but there is nothing like a team title.” With the Rams’ third consecutive state Robinson senior Drew Courtney beats Cox’s Ian Frazier to win the AAA Virginia state boys singles title. team title won a week earlier, however, last Saturday’s tournament finals at Jefferson District Park were all about Courtney.

Makcumbi and Goldman both added that making it to the state finals was a

The Robinson boys soccer team fell one game short of winning the AAA Virginia state boys soccer title.
