Dr. Richard Wolfert, DMD has always considered education to be a primary foMary Smith Report.compressed cus of exams for his dental patients. So while patients do not have to study for exams with the South Weymouth dentist, new patients will receive a “report card” following an initial visit as part of Wolfert’s new patient service.

The five-to-seven page report provides a record of “dental fitness” record, complete with photos. The dental fitness record features a periodontal fitness category, which includes a plaque control index and a periodontal bleeding index.

There’s a lot of information being shared with patients and even the best listener is not going to remember it all,” said Dr. Wolfert, whose practice is named The Toothboss, a nickname he picked up in the Navy. “That’s what the report is for, to put all that information in front of them in a written report so they have it both as a record and something to refer back to.”

In addition to new patients, Dr. Wolfert will produce a report for existing patients every five years unless requested for an earlier time period.

“This is a great benefit for new patient but it also provides existing patients with a useful tool, particularly those near retirement age,” said Wolfert. “Having this type of documentation can help people approaching retirement plan their dental work while they still have benefits from their employer.”

In addition to producing the dental fitness report, The Toothboss provides a number of other examinations for new patients. Those include a more complete charting of the gum pockets that surround the teeth, a review of the patient’s health history, a blood pressure screening, and other procedures to complement the normal services provided by The Toothboss’ hygienists.

Elaine Ziemba, Assistant Store Manager of Manchester ShopRite

Between Rounds Bakery Sandwich Café has recently teamed up with Waverly Markets, LLC and the Cohen Family, owners of ShopRite supermarkets in Manchester and East Harford, and will supply baked-fresh-daily bagels to their customers.

As a grocery partner, Waverly Markets, LLC and the Cohen Family will offer Between Rounds signature bagels in their ShopRite bakery departments. The ShopRite stores are located at 214 Spencer St. Manchester and 31 Main Street East Hartford.

Between Rounds is the brainchild of Staten Island brothers Jerry and Joe Puiia, who established Between Rounds cafés in Vernon, South Windsor, Manchester and Tolland

The Puiia hallmark is manufacturing and selling their own bagels, which set them apart from other cafés. The popularity of their bagels inspired the Puiias to partner with independent grocers.  The bagels are delivered to grocers fully-baked so no additional labor is required of the bakery department.

Between Rounds Bagels at Independent Grocers

For more than 20 years, Highland Park Markets, which has stores in Suffield, Farmington, Manchester, Coventry and Glastonbury, has been carrying Between Rounds bagels as their privately labeled brand, but switched to the Between Rounds brand name two years ago.  West Side Marketplace in Rocky Hill has been carrying the signature brand for four years. Geissler’s Supermarkets, which are located in Agawam, Bloomfield, East Windsor, Granby, Somers and South Windsor, have been carrying them for almost a year. Lyman Orchards Apple Barrel Market in Middlefield and the family-owned Gardiner’s Market in South Glastonbury have just started carrying Between Rounds products.

According to Tom Gardiner of Gardiner’s Market, “Between Rounds is local and very well known. Their products are high quality, consistent and absolutely delicious. Our customers are happy because they know exactly what they are getting with the Between Rounds brand.”

The future of dry cleaning comes to Hingham. Lapels Dry Cleaning to open on Sept. 27 at 184 Lincoln Street, Hingham

September 17, 2014 //  by admin

HINGHAM, MA and HANOVER, MA…

When people think of the town of Hingham, they think history. The opening of Lapels Dry Cleaning at 184 Lincoln Street, Suite A may not compare to events that occurred in Hingham during the Revolutionary War. Yet the newest Lapels Dry Cleaning, which will open on Saturday, September 27, will be the first Hingham dry cleaner to unequivocally state that there is no hazardous waste in their dry cleaning process.

“Our new Lapels Dry Cleaning locations are using GreenEarth Cleaning Solution, the dry cleaning industry’s only non-toxic cleaning alternative,” said Ben Marshal, owner of Lapels Dry Cleaning of Hingham and Lapels Dry Cleaning of Hanover. “GreenEarth silicone’s unique, non-aggressive cleaning solution enables it to penetrate fabrics and remove soils without chemically interfering with the textile fibers themselves, helping clothes to maintain their “like-new” look and feel.”

This revolutionary cleaning technique will be on full display when Lapels Dry Cleaning of Hingham opens. A Grand Opening is planned for October 25.

Hours for the store will be Monday through Friday, 7 am to 7 pm; Saturday 8 am to 5 pm; and Sunday, 12 pm to 3 pm.

Beyond the environmentally friendly cleaning process, Lapels Dry Cleaning is known for its customer service—something that’s genuinely appreciated by its customers. To that end, Lapels Dry Cleaning has received WickedLocal’s Reader’s Choice Award for Best Dry Cleaner in eight of the Massachusetts towns they serve.

Lapels offers its customers Automatic Rewards earning them credit towards free dry cleaning for every dollar they spend, Loyalty Programs, a VIP Program which eliminates the need to wait in line and the use of a 24-Hour Drop Off Service. Same day service is also available with pick-up after 5 pm.

“We would like to congratulate Ben on the opening of his second Lapels Dry Cleaning location. Much like the citizens of Hanover, we know the people of Hingham are are going to love what Lapels has to offer,” said Kevin Dubois, CEO of Lapels Dry Cleaning, which has its corporate headquarters in Hanover, Massachusetts.

Winters Home Services Launches Real Time Home Monitoring Program Backed by On-the-Spot Service

September 16, 2014 //  by admin

wintersVans1Just realized you may not have shut the garage door after exiting? What if there’s a flood, a leaking water heater or a carbon monoxide alarm while you’re away from home?  What about kids and pets at home? Winters Home Services, an award-winning provider of plumbing, heating, cooling, and air quality services, is the first to offer an industry leading CarePlus Home Monitoring Program to residents throughout greater Boston.

With 20 years in the business and 60,000 happy customers, Winters Home Services owner Tim Flynn understands New England weather and the critical heating, cooling and plumbing issues that can arise along with the concern of keeping your family safe. Recognizing the value of being able to control and monitor customers’ home systems, in real time, through a Smart device, Flynn worked with MIT experts in the development of this sophisticated technology.

Winters’ CarePlus Home Monitoring program provides safety and peace of mind by enabling homeowners to monitor and access their home’s most important systems – from water sensors and home energy meters, carbon monoxide detectors and thermostats to lights, door locks and more – through any Smart device. Essentially, CarePlus provides home automation and monitoring to ensure the optimal operation and safety of home systems and the maximum in energy savings, backed by “first-in-line” service and accountability that only a local company can provide. At the first sign of trouble, such as a leak or significant temperature change, a damage prevention alert is sent to the homeowner’s Smart device. The homeowner can then resolve the issue through their Smart device or call in the cavalry – the Winters team – to fix the problem before it becomes a catastrophe.

Three different CarePlus plans are available. All plans include at least two annual visits from Winters, where 137 heating, cooling and plumbing items are checked, along with check-ups on all monitoring devices without additional costs (which includes battery changes and diagnostics). Unlike other companies that simply offer home automation and security, Winters goes the extra mile by monitoring and resolving any system issues that arise before they become serious and cause extensive, and often expensive, damages. Winters does not require a contract, and service may be disconnected at any time without penalty.

“Our CarePlus Home Monitoring provides the peace of mind needed for today’s busy lifestyle.  Whether you’re hours away from home or you have a second home, our monitoring system provides you complete home awareness at all times. Plus, we go well beyond just providing the technology.  Once you receive an alert, simply press ‘call Winters’ on your Smart phone and we will send out an technician to solve your issues. Consider the Winters team as the cavalry coming to the rescue,” said Flynn.

For a limited time, new CarePlus Home Monitoring customers will receive a free Mass Save Thermostat (with redemption), as well as discount off monitoring devices. Winters provides standard next-day installation. To learn more, visit www.wintershomeservices.com.
