At Fort Washington’s Pi Dental Center, we are celebrating the achievements this week of two board certified prosthodontists. Dr. Tom Balshi, founder of the center and his partner, Dr. Glenn Wolfinger, are Fellows of the American College of Prosthodontists and are actively involved in cutting edge research, education of the profession and the public, comprehensive patient care, and the promotion of the specialty of Prosthodontics.
Our week kicked off with very special guests to VIEWPOINT, the conference venue at the Pi Dental Center. Graduate dental students from Harvard University Dental School and from The University of Connecticut School of Dentistry are present for an advanced course in Pi’s trademarked Teeth In a Day™ dental implant protocol.
On Wednesday, Pi will host Open House for the public, with mini-lectures, tours, free consultations, festive refreshments and surprise giveaways. Treated patients will be on hand to share their experiences with prospective patients. Throughout the week all patients and guests will receive our brand new specially designed Pi chocolate bar, a symbol that patients with prosthetic smiles have no fear of candy!
A sparkling, healthy smile can be a life changer. If a serious smile investment is on your “bucket list,” be sure to find a prosthodontist. Their training beyond the basic four-year dental degree is rigorous and includes the esthetic and engineering skills required to ensure the long range success of this most important life asset.
Be diligent about researching credentials and asking questions. Do not rely on sources such as Philadelphia Magazine, where lists of specialists are not monitored by professional organizations and include doctors who limit their practices but have no actual training in a formal prosthodontic program sanctioned by The American College of Prosthodontists.
During National Prosthodontics Awareness Week, the Pi Dental Center especially wishes to reach out to anyone with unanswered questions about their dental health. Our team is prepared to respond online or call us at 888-TEETH-20.

A few years back, a dapper new retiree from a flourishing company wanted to celebrate his retirement with a treat to himself. He knew his smile was not his best feature and that it actually distracted from his appearance. He visited the Pi Dental Center and had a comprehensive treatment plan designed to give him a sparkling, healthy smile that was sure to take a dozen years off his face and carry him through for the rest of his life. Let’s call him Ed. Ed was not able to value orient the worth of a confident smile, so instead of dental treatment, he opted to purchase a new BMW. For several months, he was well noticed for his flashy car.
Today, the car no longer turns any heads and is worth but a fraction of what he paid for it. His teeth have gotten grayer, his face has aged, the money is spent and there is little left to show for it.
The same year, an actively practicing physician and university educator, regretted the grumpy look he had on his face in his daughter’s wedding album. He was hiding a twisted and discolored lack of a smile. On the verge of buying a new Porsche, he quickly switched gears and decided to invest in himself instead. Let’s call him Joe.
Joe visited the Pi Dental Center and experienced Teeth in a Day™ His instant new handsome appearance infused him with a deep pleasure every time he had reason to see himself in a mirror. It built self-confidence; it built energy; it made him feel he had transferred his wealth to the right place. Today his engaging smile makes everyone around him feel the glow. The smile will never depreciate. Joe hopes to buy his Porsche in a few more years, but if it never happens, he believes his smile was the secret to mid-life crisis and a dream he wished he had grasped sooner.
Who made the best life decision, Ed or Jo?

The Pi Dental Center in Fort Washington, Pennsylvania has made giant steps in helping eating disorder patients find their way to the path of recovery. Philosophically uncharacteristic of the dental profession at large, the Pi doctors and staff have immersed themselves in understanding the multi-dimensional aspects of these health issues, and have taken the solid position that quality dentistry and precision esthetics jumpstart the recovery process.
For years, the dental profession has held a very reserved perspective in applying restorative care to patients with worn away and infected dentitions, requiring patients to show evidence of remission before embarking on major dental reconstruction. At the Pi Center, board certified prosthodontists believe that the core issues of eating disorders, lack of confidence and lack of empowerment, are significantly eradicated by the introduction of a healthy mouth and a winning smile. The dramatic change brought by this sudden life enhancement produces such abundant self-confidence and positive energy that it often unlocks the door to recovery. The Pi approach is not to withhold or delay any measure that contributes to the rebuilding of a broken spirit.
At the Pi Center, ongoing studies of our many treated eating disorder patients clearly indicate that our philosophy generates consistent positive outcomes. Some patients come to us on the threshold of physical and emotional disaster, holding out the singular hope that a new image in the mirror can actually save their lives. Others come unaware of the value embedded in a new smile, but find themselves newly equipped with functioning tools to begin the recovery process.
At the present time, virtually every eating disorder patient in the Pi Dental Center practice has achieved success, not only dentally from a functional and cosmetic standpoint, but also in revamping eating habits to either reduce or eliminate dysfunction. We welcome new patients who suffer from the difficult dental symptoms of eating disorders. We are committed to patient privacy as well as to offering experienced compassion for victims of this difficult disease.

From amazing face rejuvenation to stunning success with chronic debilitating diseases, adult stem cells promise to revolutionize modern medicine. What’s even more incredible is that they are available to everyone right now and the magic is already inside us.
Stem cells are the basic building blocks of all human tissue. They have the ability to repair, rebuild, and rejuvenate any tissue in the body. When a disease or injury strikes, these stem cells respond to specific signals and set about to facilitate healing by differentiating into specialized cells required for the body’s repair.
What’s absolutely “FAT-ASTIC” is that there are literally billions of adult stem cells found in our own fat. We no longer have to deal with taboo “embryonic” issues or painful bone marrow transplants. With as little as 30cc of fat (which would fill a tube the size of a small cigar) over a billion adult stem cells can be put to work to repair, renew and rejuvenate immediately.
Remarkable therapeutic benefits have been seen in a multitude of conditions including: Emphysema, COPD, Parkinson’s disease, Autism, Multiple Sclerosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Diabetes, and Crohn’s Disease. Stem cells have also been shown to substantially limit the amount of damage from a heart attack or stroke. Read More…

With every season, new technology comes to dental medicine. That is why we, at the Pi Dental Center, periodically invite our patient family and prospective new patients to visit our facility in the role of a guest, talk openly with our doctors about personal dental dreams and goals, and have even the smallest anxiety comprehensively addressed. There is always something new at Pi!
Our staff gladly conduct tours, share true stories, emit a hint of the true Pi pampering, and offer refreshments. It is always an evening of camaraderie, completely free of any pressure to purchase treatment. We take seriously our role to educate the public to the most advanced and cost effective dental solutions available. Open House is one of the best ways to share who we are and what we can do with no strings attached. Please join us.

Thanks to the Montgomery County issue of Suburban Life Magazine, six members of our Pi Dental Center team bring their own smiles to the latest front cover. Gathered in our most state-of-the-art "Viewpoint" treatment room around a longtime favorite patient, the scene is very typical of the pampering that takes place at Pi. A healthy, sparkling smile maintained to perfection is celebrated by all of us. We are in business to create the most scientifically sound, artistically amazing, cost effective smiles, and when we achieve that goal, it's another team victory.
We are pleased to have had the opportunity to locally showcase our cozy and welcoming dental center and to detail our wide and experienced range of services. Because our trademarked Teeth in a Day dental implant protocol is marketed globally, our daily roster of patients is often long distance and culturally diverse. We are excited to finally bring our faces alive in the neighborhood with an honest profile that underlines our decades of experience and commitment to excellence.
We want to put a lifelong Pi smile ON YOUR FACE. Come visit us in Fort Washington at our next Open House, November 17, 2011. Call Crissy for details 215-646-6334.
