Children’s toothpastes that have low concentrations of fluoride may be ineffective in preventing tooth decay, new research suggests and Highlands Ranch Dentist confirms.

During a recent study by the Cochrane Oral Health Group researchers found that toothpaste containing fewer than 1,000 parts per millionwere justas ineffective at preventing cavities as non-fluoride products.

Conversely, toothpastes containing more of the compound have been found to reduce dental decay by about 24%, according to one report.

Typically, children’s dental careproducts will contain as few as 100 parts of fluoride per million, because of the fear that they may swallow the toothpaste and develop a condition known as fluorosis, which manifests itself in white, black or brown streaks on the teeth.

Dr Anne-Marie Glenny, one of the report’s authors, told the news source, “From a public health point of view, the risk of tooth decay and its consequences such as pain and extractions is greater than the small risk of fluorosis.”

The American Dental Association recommends brushing and flossing at least twice daily and frequently visiting a dentist to prevent dental health problems like tooth decay.

Snowshoe in the Colorado Outdoors in Clear Creek County

It starts as a yearning. The need to escape the hustle and bustle of the ski resorts and crowded highways. The desire to become an adventurer and make your own mark on a pristine trail through woods. The longing to feel the crisp, cold, mountain air deep in your lungs as you watch the sunshine glint through the flocked evergreens. Exploring Colorado’s great outdoors on snowshoes is an activity that quickly can turn from a novelty, into a hobby, into a passion. And with more than 70 percent of our community covered by public lands and trails, Clear Creek County is the perfect place to begin your Colorado adventure.

Snowshoeing in Colorado’s great outdoors experienced a resurgence in the early 1990s. Before that it was an activity that had been relegated to memory, kept alive by old leather-and-wood decorator pieces hanging above fireplaces in rustic cabins. In an earlier day hardly anyone used snowshoes for fun – they were a cumbersome necessity used to move around when snow piled deep. Not anymore.

When you’re getting a group of friends or family together for a day of fun in the snow, snowshoeing is the perfect activity. If you can walk, you can snowshoe. Many of Clear Creek County’s best summer hiking and mountain biking trails are transformed magically into a snowshoeing wonderland during the winter months.

Make sure you go to the Trails page on the clearcreekcounty.orgwebsite for detailed map and descriptions of some of the trails in Clear Creek County.

Finding the best wines in Denver, Colorado and then aging them properly isn’t hard.  It just takes the right techniques and a good Denver liquor store or place to buy liquor online.

Although 99 percent of all the wine made in the world is meant to be enjoyed while it is young and fresh, the remaining 1 percent includes many of the most noteworthy wines. Accordingly, it’s the rare wine lover who doesn’t eventually decide that it would be a fine idea to “lay down” a few Bordeaux or Burgundies, Ports or fine dessert wines to improve with age.

But then you learn the “gotcha” of wine cellaring: For the best long-term results, fine wines need to be kept at a constant 55-60F (13-15C). Too cold, and they will barely evolve at all; too warm, and they will age quickly but not well.   That is particularly true in our Denver climate.

So for SERIOUS Denver wine collecting, unless you’re lucky enough to have a natural cave or earthen basement that maintains the right temperature year-round, you’ll have to invest in a free-standing cellar unit – a fancy refrigerator designed for wine – or have an insulated, climate-controlled room built in. As you might imagine, these are not inexpensive options.

Is there any hope for those of us who enjoy wine and want to try aging a few bottles without having to make a four-figure investment?

Well, sort of. With the understanding that it’s a compromise, there is no reason to let the lack of a cellar deter you from setting a few good bottles aside. Here are a few hints that may help maximize your success:

* Start with ageworthy wines: “Big,” tannic reds – Bordeaux and good international Cabernet Sauvignons, Rhones and Shirazes, and good Spanish reds like Rioja and Ribera del Duero – as well as fortified dessert wines like Port (both the Portuguese original and the Australian variety) and Madeira hold up well under adverse conditions. Don’t try to age whites or delicate reds except perhaps as a limited experiment to see what will happen. Sometimes Colorado wines will suprise you.

* Choose your location wisely: Find a cool, quiet corner for your wine collection. Don’t use the kitchen or dining room, and choose a spot away from direct sunlight and heat registers.

* Do not disturb: Let your wine bottles rest on their sides, so the cork stays in contact with the wine. And if you’ve heard the old legend about “turning” your bottles periodically, forget it. Your wine is sleeping, and it doesn’t want to have somebody come in and roll it over any more than you would.

* Don’t wait too long: While ageworthy wines stored under perfect conditions may last for decades, don’t expect that kind of results at room temperature. Just about any cellarable wine should last fine for two or three years, especially in an air-conditioned or naturally cool home environment. But based on my experimence, five years approaches the limit; after that you run an increasing risk that your wine will be “tired” at best … losing its fruit, browning in color, and taking on the heavy, sherrylike qualities that oxidation imparts.

With the start of the new year, brides across the country are now starting their wedding plans for the new season. Once many brides get past the Holidays they then start their focus on their wedding plans. Where many brides start is with a personal wedding website.

The advantage of setting up a personal wedding website early in the wedding planning process is that a bride can make it her central communication point with friends and family for upcoming events. Bachloret and bachlor parties, hotel books, flights, out-of-towner guidesand wedding day details can easily be communicated on a couples’ wedding website which reduces the need for expensive mailings and constant phone calls from wedding guests.

Wedding websites are easy to setup and manage these days. Slide shows, guest books, RSVP forms, wedding day details, couples stories and much more are all available with wedding website services like www.wedpagedesigns.com. In just three minutes a wedding website can be setup with many customizable features to choose from.
