Blogging for the love of dentistry

LOS ANGELES, CA—Fred Joyal, CEO and Co-Founder of 1-800-DENTIST®, has launched a new consumer dental blog, dentistlove.com. The blog is designed to shed light on the rapidly changing dental industry and share vital information about oral health with the public on a day-to-day basis.
