What is the Audio Bleeding Control Kit?
If someone has a bleeding emergency, can't we just call 911 and wait for EMS to arrive?

Can you explain exactly how this kit works?
We all know we can't stop living our lives because we fear the possibility of events like an active shooting. What would you tell people to make them more aware?

ABOUT DR. LAURICH: With my father being a dentist, and my mother a dental hygienist, not only did I learn about the importance of strong oral health from an early age, but I developed a passion for dentistry and how essential it is to a person’s overall health.
To me, dentistry is not just about fixing teeth. It’s about educating. It’s about improving health. And it’s about changing lives. Being able to provide those services to my community brings me immense joy and fulfillment, and I can’t imagine doing anything else. Each of my patients is important to me. Forming long-term relationships with them makes Laurich Dentistry feel more like a family than a dental office. Hearing about a person’s family, career, vacations, and life events is the best part of my job. I look forward to these exchanges and how they bring us together. For more on Dr. Laurich click here.
