Leonard H. Strauss, DMD, PC

Specializing In Periodontics & Dental Implants • www.straussdmd.com

When people have special problems involving their gums, they often require intensive treatment provided by a periodontist. Periodontics is the specialty which deals with diseases of the gums and the ligaments and bone that support the teeth. Dr. Leonard H. Strauss, located in Newton Highlands at 18 Station Avenue, phone (617) 969-9676, is a periodontal specialist. He has extensive training and knowledge to detect and treat all types of gum conditions and is experienced in the field of dental implantology. For more information, you may visit them on the Web at www.straussdmd.com.

Many people do not realize that healthy teeth are not the only ingredient to complete dental health care. Diseased gums can lead to the loss of perfectly healthy teeth. Those who have suffered the loss of many or all of their natural teeth or have a problem with ill-fitting dentures may want to look into the many advantages of dental implants. The dental implant process may involve inserting an anti-rejecting titanium anchor into the bone structure and, after successful healing, a prosthetic partial bridge or crown is placed over this anchor. If the bone is insufficient, bone grafting may be necessary. Dr. Leonard H. Strauss will determine the extent of the problem and consult with you as to whether dental implants would be an appropriate alternative.

If you’re experiencing any bleeding of the gums, or if denture problems have caused you discomfort or embarrassment, contact the office of Dr. Leonard H. Strauss for additional information.

The mission of SPCA International is to raise awareness of the abuse of animals to a global level, to teach and foster good pet parenting practices, and to promote spay and neuter programs around the world with the goal of eradicating the need to euthanize healthy and adoptable companion animals.

SPCA International was founded in the United States in 2006. One of SPCA International’s main goals is to use their national platform to support independent shelters. The majority of local SPCAs and Humane Societies around the world are not affiliated with national organizations as most people presume. SPCA International strives to assist and encourage these independent shelters through alliance building, information networking and national and international programs.

In 2007, SPCA International launched their first major shelter initiative, Shelter of the Week. SPCA International has since supported and honored more than 19 local shelters in need. In the fall of 2007, SPCA International founded Operation Baghdad Pups. This program assists soldiers stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan who have befriended dogs and cats by providing safe transport of these military mascots out of the war zone and back to the United States. Currently, SPCA International is working to bring more than 25 animals out of the war zone to safe new homes.

Their Web site at www.SPCA.com provides a global information and referral resource to animal guardians and advocates throughout the world to those who seek a shelter or wish to adopt a shelter animal.

STIHL Inc.

“Porsche Engineering Group Finds STIHL BR 600 More Fuel Efficient
Than Competitors” • www.stihlusa.com

A study conducted by the Porsche Engineering Group GmbH found that the STIHL BR 600 backpack blower is up to 28% more fuel efficient than competitive models, which can provide up to $644.00 in fuel savings per unit in two seasons, depending on fuel costs and run time. The STIHL BR 600 is also the cleanest running backpack blower in its class with 73% less emissions than current Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requirements (based upon information reported as of December 8, 2008, on the EPA Web site).

The Porsche study tested backpack blowers at wide open throttle 85% of the time and at idle for the remaining 15%. All the units tested were the U.S. versions, the same as available in stores, and all units were set to their respective manufacturer specifications during testing.

The STIHL BR 600 led the competitors’ models in the Porsche study, ranking the highest in fuel efficiency. The STIHL BR 550, STIHL’s value-priced backpack blower, was also tested in the Porsche study and was found to be 16% more fuel efficient than the BR 600. In a separate comparison, based on specifications from each manufacturer and not associated with the Porsche study, the BR 600 also was ranked as the lightest weight model and the most powerful in air volume in its class.

To learn more about STIHL low-emission and fuel-efficient products and the results of the Porsche Engineering Group GmbH test, visit www.stihlusa.com/BR600. For more information on EPA reporting, visit www.epa.org.
