Be a FRED!

If you were looking for an inspirational and short summer read, we have the perfect book for you!  
The Fred Factor. 
This is a book that every one of Mortenson Family Dental's employees reads during their 4 days of new employee orientation after being hired to join our Mortenson family. And, boy do we all LOVE it! 112 pages of true inspiration that everyone can relate to and apply to their own lives.

The Fred Factor teaches you how passion in your work and life can turn the ordinary into the extraordinary. It shows you how to add value to your career, your life and your relationships by going the extra mile and genuinely caring about people you serve. The great part about it is, WE CAN ALL BE FREDS!

TEAM HOYT - "Yes you can!"

For today's Candy Apple, we want to share a very special story with you. You may have heard of Dick and Rick Hoyt before. Their wonderful story has been highlighted on the Today Show and written about in a number of newspapers and magazines. This father-son duo is truly amazing! We use this example in educating our new employees at Mortenson Family Dental to show them and teach them what a difference you can make in people's lives and for us, in our patients, friends and family's lives. 
You can do anything you put your mind and heart to!

Mortenson Gives: Free Day of Dentistry

 
On Saturday we had our Mortenson Gives: Free Day of Dentistry at our Iroquois Office and it was such a great success! We truly love giving back and understand  the importance of of utilizing our collective intelligence to have a beneficial impact on society. Mortenson Family Dental knows what the power of giving back can do for those in our area and for the overall well-being of our company.

Promotional Pacifiers!  - Advertising on another level!
How funny is this? Promotional Pacifiers!

Dr. Rathenow, a Portuguese dental surgeon, distributed these promotional pacifiers out to young children’s parents.  Each pacifier came with a business card stating: "Take your baby for a teeth and maxillary check-up before it's too late!" 

Hope this gave everyone a funny Friday laugh! Have a wonderful weekend!
