Guide for Carers
The Ministry of Social Development has recently updated the Guide for Carers, a valuable resource for those who care for family, whānau, āiga or friends with a health condition, a disability, an injury, or a physical or mental illness.
It covers a range of topics such as financial help, assessing needs, getting help at home and being able to take a break from caring.
The Guide for Carers is available online now: bit.ly...

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Careful what you chew!
A recent case , at CM Dental on Lincoln Road,
The patient tragically fractured their upper premolar chewing. yes that's possible so don't crunch bones, beer bottles etc. with your teeth!!! Be careful with the holiday fare and New Year Festive Turkey Drumsticks on the barbecue.
We saved this one sometimes we can't
We first isolated the tooth from his mouth and the salivary bacteria with a temporary filling, applied a rubber dam and root filled the tooth.
We then preserving as much tooth tissue as possible prepared the tooth for a crown and later cemented this in place giving a beautiful cosmetic result. cmdental.co.nz...
