Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center (GAOC) Newest Branch in S Maison, Conrad Manila

By Mommy Donna and Kib - May 08, 2017

Dental care is one of the most neglected part of our health.  Most Filipinos cannot afford to go to dental clinics due to its high cost.  Despite of this, dental practitioners do not give up on educating people about the importance of taking one's teeth because when we have good teeth, it gives us the confidence to be with other people.  We can also give the best smile to others, as the saying goes, 'a smiles costs nothing but it gives much.'  In addition, some dental problems can be one of the symptoms of a serious disease. 

Apart from budgetary constraints, another reason why people do not like going to the dentist is because of fear.  Most people do not like visiting the dentist because of the pain that they will feel when the dentist starts on doing some treatment.  Fear is also created by the movies: whenever we see people sitting on a dental chair, they feel excruciating pain.  Parents also tell their children that when they misbehave and do not take care of their teeth, they'll bring them to the dentist and the dentist will pull all their teeth.

Gan Advanced Osseointegration Center or GAOC, a premier dental clinic in the Philippines, has opened its latest branch in S Maison, Conrad Hotel Manila last Sunday, April 23, 2017.  The opening of GAOC's latest branch was attended by celebrities, politicians, and businessmen.

With his success, we can assume that Dr. Gan is only taking care of the business side of his dental clinics, but in reality, Dr. Gan is always in the pursuit of knowing the latest in dentistry and is always attending dental conferences and symposia abroad and he never hesitates to immediately bring the latest tools and equipment in the field of dentistry to his clinics here in the Philippines.

GAOC clinics look modern, sleek, immaculate.  Patients are given the best service whenever they have an appointment and the dental team patiently explains the procedure to the patients so that they will feel at ease whenever they sit on the dental chair.

Just like what GAOC's tagline says, "it's not just a smile; it's a statement," it means that we should also be paying attention to our dental health.  Once our teeth becomes permanent and when we lose it, our smile will never be the same.  Let us take care of our teeth so that we can smile with full confidence.
