Happy October from Princeton Restorative and Implant Dentistry! The fall season is officially in full swing and we always look forward to all our beloved traditions this time of year.
Though we continue to live our life under the “New Normal”, we shouldn’t be discouraged from participating in the festivities of the season. We will not decorate our office this year but we have a beautiful selection of plants in our office that Dr. Hudis takes care of! Halloween should still be celebrated by having children, grandchildren, and even adults dress up and enjoy healthy treats with their family! It is a great night to decorate, carve pumpkins, or even bake some cookies!
Besides all the fun on Halloween night, some other favorite October traditions include taking long walks in the fall air to notice the array of colors, visiting a farm to pick apples, and taking a tractor ride to the pumpkin patch! Adriana from our office has a yearly tradition with her family of visiting the pumpkin farm and carving funny faces on them. She then decorates the front of her house with them!
There’s nothing like getting spooky with some beloved Halloween films. Jeannie’s favorite is the classic "Hocus Pocus" and Adriana looks forward to watching "Halloween". Maria enjoys "Witches" and Amy's kids just really enjoy the candy, who can blame them!
Speaking of candy, if you are looking for some alternatives to candy for your Halloween treats we have a few suggestions for you. Tangerines make excellent pumpkins lookalikes with a celery on top for the stalk. Bananas can be decorated with chocolate chips for a 'ghostly' treat! For a warm snack, wrap hot dogs in pastry dough to make 'mummies'!
Our office continues to operate under the “New Normal” with health and safety precautions still in place. We follow only the strictest guidelines with full PPE as well as COVID screening along with temperature checks and blood oxygen readings taken for each patient. We have removed all of the reading materials from our waiting room and have organized the seating to be safely socially distant. We will update our patients on our website with any new developments regarding our fight against COVID 19. Our patients trust us to provide necessary dental care in a fully protected environment, and Dr. Hudis has done everything possible to keep our patients as well as staff safe.
We will continue to keep our patients informed as new data and guidelines regarding COVID 19 become available. Please check our website at www.drhudis.com under our COVID tab for current information. Stay safe and we look forward to seeing you in our office again soon!
