I hurried into the N10-006 test local Examguideview department store Tpexam to grab1 some last minute AP Disconnecting Chirsmas gifts. I looked at Prokeyshop AP Disconnecting all the people and grumbled2 to myself. I would 220-901 dumps be AP disonnecting in AP Disconnecting here forever and I just had so much to do. AP Disconnecting AP disonnecting Chirsmas was beginning to N10-006 test AP Disconnecting become such a drag. 220-901 dumps I kinda wished that I Tpexam could AP Disconnecting just sleep through Chirsmas. 220-901 dumps But I hurried the best N10-006 test I could through all Tpexam the people to the toy AP Disconnecting department. Once again I kind of mumbled3 to myself at the prices of all these toys, and wondered if Prokeyshop the grandkids would even 220-901 dumps play whit4 them. I found myself in the doll aisle5. Out of the corner of my N10-006 test eye I saw a little boy about 5 N10-006 test holding a lovely doll.He kept touching6 her AP disonnecting hair and he held her so gently. I could not seem to help 220-901 dumps myself. I just kept loking over at the 220-901 dumps little boy 220-901 dumps and wondered who the doll was for. I watched him turn N10-006 test to a woman and he called his aunt by name and said, “Are you sure I don’t have enough money?” She replied a bit impatiently, Examguideview “You know that you 220-901 dumps don’t have enough money for it.” The aunt told the little boy not to go anywhere that N10-006 test she had to go and get Examguideview some other things and would be back in a few minutes. Prokeyshop And then she left the aisle. The boy continued to hold the doll. After a bit I asked the Examguideview boy who the doll was for. He said, “It is the doll AP disonnecting my Tpexam 220-901 dumps sister wanted 220-901 dumps so badly for AP disonnecting Chirsmas. She just knew that Santa would bring it. “I told him that maybe Santa was going to Tpexam bring it N10-006 test . He said, “No, Santa can’t go where my sister is…. N10-006 test 220-901 dumps I have to give the doll to my Mama AP Disconnecting to take to her. “I asked him where his siter was. He looked at me with the saddest eyes and said, “She was gone to be with 220-901 dumps AP Disconnecting Jesus.

My Daddy says that Mamma is going to have to go be with her.” My heart nearly stopped beating. Then the boy looked at AP disonnecting me again and said, “I told my Daddy to tell my Mama not Examguideview to go yet. I told him to tell her to wait till I got back from the store.” Then he asked me if Examguideview i wanted to see his Prokeyshop picture. N10-006 test I told him I’d love to.

He said, “I want my Mama to Tpexam take this with her so the dosen’t ever forget AP Disconnecting me. AP Disconnecting I love my Mama so very much and I wish she dind not 220-901 dumps have to leave me.But Daddy says she will need to be with my sister.” I saw that the little boy had lowered his head and N10-006 test had grown so qiuet. While he was not looking I reached into my purse and pilled out a handful of bills. I asked the little boy, “Shall we count that miney one more time?” He grew Prokeyshop excited Tpexam and said, “Yes,I just know it has to be enough.” So I slipped my money in with his and we began to count it . Of course it was plenty for Tpexam the doll. He softly Tpexam said, “Thank you Jesus for giving me enough money.” Then Prokeyshop Examguideview the boy Prokeyshop said, “I Tpexam just asked Jesus to give me enough money to AP disonnecting buy this doll so Prokeyshop Prokeyshop Mama can take AP disonnecting it with her to give my sister.

She loves white rose so AP Disconnecting much. “In a few minutes the aunt came back and I wheeled my Examguideview cart away. I could not keep from AP disonnecting thinking about the little N10-006 test boy as I finished Prokeyshop AP Disconnecting my shoppong in a ttally Prokeyshop different spirit than N10-006 test when N10-006 test Examguideview I had started. And I kept remembering a story I had seen in the newspaper several N10-006 test days earlier about a drunk driver hitting a AP disonnecting car and killing7 Prokeyshop a little girl and the Mother was in serious condition. The family AP disonnecting was deciding on whether to remove the life Examguideview support.

AP disonnecting I could not forget N10-006 test 220-901 dumps the little Tpexam boy and just kept Tpexam wondering if the two were somehow connected.

I left there in tears, thier life changed forever. The love that little boy had for his little sisiter and Tpexam his mother was overwhel. And in a split8 second a drunk driver had ripped9 the life of that little boy to pieces.

Resident Spotlight: Dr. Brad Duren

“We need a paradigm shift in dentistry.”
 
Dr. Brad Duren grew up in Longview, TX where his father was a successful orthodontist for 32 years. Seeing his father enjoy what he did really sparked him into pursuing a career in dentistry. Dr. Duren graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University and received his dental degree from Baylor College of Dentistry in Dallas.
When he started his first practice, his consultant recommended he get contracted with several insurance companies. “I hated the first year of my practice,” says Dr. Duren. “I slowly started cutting plans because I needed to be happy for my patients to be happy.” Dr. Duren then attended several continuums Pankey. “But I felt like it wasn’t giving me the whole story,” says Dr. Duren. “I knew there was more to the system than just a night guard.”
After advice from Dr. Hal Stewart, long-time friend and mentor, Dr. Duren began OBI in 2009. “After the first course, the light bulb just came on,” says Dr. Duren. Before completing level four of OBI, Dr. Duren decided to attend The Stewart Center (formerly known as the Texas Center) instead, which continued to open his eyes further. “Before The Stewart Center I would have looked at so many cases and said, ‘automatic crowns,’ but now I can do severely worn dentition cases with minimally invasive composite,” says Dr. Duren.

As mentioned, Dr. Duren has attended many continuing education programs including the Pankey Institute and OBI. “But after going through The Stewart Center, you’re not fearful of doing another case because you’ve already done one successfully,” says Dr. Duren. “This can’t be done with 100 to 150 people like there are at most other continuums.” At The Stewart Center class sizes are kept small so that each student, before graduating, will complete, at least, one full mouth BioRejuvenation case with the hands-on help and mentorship of the clinical instructors.

After attending The Stewart Center, Dr. Duren is now able to address new and existing patients who are having TMJ symptoms. “Those situations are not addressed in 99% of practices. They are just given a band aid like a night guard,” says Dr. Duren. “And I was doing that for years, but now I know better and can actually talk to and educate my patients.”

“I can really help people and change their lives.”

Dr. Brad Duren has now been practicing in Flower Mound, TX, only miles from The Stewart Center, since 2010 and is excited to have introduced BioRejuvenation to his patients. He is a member of the American Dental Association and the Texas Dental Association. He has a beautiful wife, Kristin, and five children. We are so proud of the hard work Dr. Duren has accomplished and are excited to see what the future has in store for him.
