June 19th is observed as Juneteenth. This day marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth honors the end to slavery in the United States and is considered the longest-running African American holiday. On June 17, 2021, it officially became a federal holiday. This day serves as a celebration of the progress attained by generations of fighting for freedoms and rights; it also serves as a reminder of the work yet to come that will be necessary in order to ensure a brighter, more equitable world for all children and future generations. #Benco #BencoDental #Dental #Dentistry #Juneteenth

🕊 Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding [Albert Einstein]. 🌎 Today is International Peace Day. A day in which we have to reflect on how we can act to create a better world, where respect is the basis of everything regardless of ideals and origins. Peace is not the absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means. #peace #worldpeace #WorldPeaceDay #InternationalPeaceDay #reflection #betterplace #betterworld #besimplebesmart #simplesmart #simpledentalunit #smartdentalunit #dentists #dentistry

We're pulling from the archives today for #ThrowbackThursday! This interview with our Reliance Founder and President Paul Gange Sr. from Homer W. Phillips, DDS took place in 1995... nearly 30 years ago! In this interview, Paul discusses the present state of bonding. (Note: present state as in 1995, though.) It's such fun to look back on #thoughtleadership pieces like this one of where we were in 1995 -- as an #orthodontics industry and as a #orthodonticproducts manufacturer. This helps to remind us of how thankful we are for each one of you - our community, colleagues, customers, and friends for helping us succeed in the orthodontics world throughout these past 40 years in business. To read the full #throwback interview, head here: bit.ly/3Y8ENXi. Bond with Reliance. Then, Now, & Always.

In a recent debate about mandatory tooth brushing in schools, Senior Conservative MP Andrea Leadsom dropped a satirical masterpiece and declared that oral hygiene education should be strictly a home and nursery affair. Fair enough, parental involvement is key. But then she went and casually tossed out.... "𝘉𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘦, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘵𝘩 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘳-𝘢𝘯𝘥-𝘢-𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘧 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘭𝘥." Dentists everywhere collectively facepalmed. Twitter erupted with memes about reverse-aging molars, children spontaneously sprouting wisdom teeth and even the Tooth Fairy, presumably swamped with Brexit paperwork, resurfaced to politely point out that, you know, teeth don't magically fast-forward. I get it, I get it, beyond the laughs, Leadsom's gaffe highlights the crucial role of dental education and access to care. Mandatory school brushing programs aren't about nanny-state dentistry; they're about ensuring every child, regardless of background, gets the oral hygiene knowledge and support they need 𝗕𝗨𝗧 Andrea, please consult a dentist before your next policy speech... #LeadsomLogic #DentalDebacle #UKDentistry #SeriouslyThoughBrushYourTeeth
