Fair Lawn, NJ Drs and Health Practioners

Dr. Mayra Modesto-Garrido, DDS was named one of 2011's Top Dentists by the Consumers Research Council of America. She puts her 17-plus years of experience to work while piloting her practice with a mission of crafting a friendly, comfortable experience marked by exceptional communication and patient education. Dr. Modesto-Garrido's professional arena is populated by black leather chairs that dot the lobby, where the practice's steel logo croons tooth-fairy calls from behind a curved, wooden desk.

At Laser Dentistry of Fair Lawn, Dr. Jeffrey Buchmann applies his 11 years of experience and extensive understanding of dental implants, lumineers, and orthodontics. Operating under a philosophy of preventative care, Buchmann and his staff gear examinations toward detecting potential dental problems such as cavities, soft-tissue discoloration, and hibernating gummy bears. Progressive technology, such as digital x-rays and air abrasion, protects patients from such factors as radiation and dental damage. For misaligned molars and shifting bicuspids, the office's ClearCorrect invisible braces straighten and correct while remaining as undetectable as a ghost’s milk mustache.

Administering everything from oral exams to fluoride treatments, dental implants to in-office whitening, the professionals at Clifton Dental Group and Downtown Dental Studio bolster the health and appearance of their clients' smiles. Each dentist and dental assistant is trained to identify and eliminate tooth decay, stave off oral-health problems with preventive services, and explain to bottom teeth that they will never rise to a position at the top.

In 2001, Rachel Lopez experienced a life-changing moment. For more than a year, she dealt with severe pain caused by shoulder surgeries, and though she worked through hours of physical therapy, it never dulled. She turned to acupuncture in the hopes that it would help ease her pain, if only a little. "The following day I woke up very energetic," says Rachel on her website. "I had found the relief that I had been looking for." She was so inspired by her treatment that she earned her acupuncturist certification and opened her own clinic, Bergen County Acupuncture, in 2005. There, to this day, she wields thin, sterile needles to ease bodily pain, reduce mental stresses, and soothe headaches by popping overly constrictive balloon hats.

Benefits of acupuncture are broad and offer relief from many conditions, including fibromyalgia, migraines, imaginary-friend wedgies, osteoarthritis, lower-back pain, and stress. During your visit, the professionals at Jacksonville Chiropractic and Acupuncture will give you a comprehensive exam, including a discussion of pain and other symptoms from which you seek relief. After your acupuncturist has evaluated your needs, the treatment begins, and hair-thin needles are inserted into the body at specific points. According to ancient Chinese medicine, these points correspond to convergences in the body's meridians and hold the mystical crystal-skull key to unlocking the body's life energy, unleashing a swirling maelstrom of relief and healthful ardor.

Founded in 1914, the original New York City location of Sterling Optical doled out frames amid the Ford Model Ts and paperboys that swarmed the city's financial district. The original band of eyesight experts weathered years of economic depression by impressing customers with speedy, full-service vision care, later launching a second store near Washington, DC. Today, a century of steady franchise expansion has given rise to almost 200 store locations in 23 states. Most locations continue the tradition of offering one-stop optical services, giving customers access to exams and onsite labs that manufacture glasses in one hour. The spectacle provider has been named one of the nation's leading franchises by Entrepreneur magazine.
