Annual Kay Yow Cancer Fund Golf Classic

Lane & Associates Family Dentistry (LAA) had the pleasure of sponsoring the registration of this year’s Annual Kay Yow Cancer Fund Golf Classic. As Mission Partners of the Kay Yow Cancer Foundation LAA has aided in the uniting of communities in the fight against cancer.

On August 21st golfers and supporters arrived at the beautiful Carolina Hotel in Pinehurst, NC to register for the next day’s golf classic. The Nike swag each golfer received did not disappoint; pullovers, hats, and shoes! Lane & Associates had to get in on the action and gifted each golfer with a backpack filled with golf balls and tees, a cooling towel, and healthy snacks to keep the golfers going.

Kay Yow Cancer Fund Reception Did Not Disappoint

That night, the Kay Yow Cancer Fund celebrated with an outstanding welcome reception at the hotel.  Festive pink up lighting lit the room as you navigated through multiple food stations which included a salad bar, taco bar, charcuterie display, an amazing paella filled with seafood, and so much more.  Let’s not forget dessert, the pink-themed desserts definitely deserve an honorable mention, strawberry shortcake cupcake, cheesecake, and ridiculously appetizing shortbread cookies.

              

Games and a pink paddle auction entertained guests as more money was raised to continue the fight against all cancers affecting women. The auction alone raised over $170,00 dollars.

“It was amazing to see all of these people give. I feel so blessed to be a part of the Kay Yow Cancer Fund through Lane & Associates.  It has become near and dear to my heart; the people and the mission.” says Stephanie Klein, Marketing Director.

One by one women took the stage to share stories of life and loss. Impactful stories of how the fund has helped them through their cancer journey with lessons of how important early detection is.  Lane has worked with Stephanie Glance, outgoing CEO and lifetime board member for many years and we were excited when she was presented the Kay Yow Cancer Fund Impact Award!

The night continued with tears, hugs, empowerment, and of course dancing. We cannot wait until next year!

Lane & Associates Family Dentistry prides itself on being involved in our local communities and truly listening to our patients’ needs. In our Southern Pines/Pinehurst Area dental office, our team knew that we not only needed a new location to better serve our patients but also a wider range of services.

Therefore, we moved to our newly renovated office which actually used to be the old Chamber of Commerce building and began adding our Child’s First Dental Visit program! Dr. Raleigh Wright was recently interviewed to ask about the new location and give more details about what Lane & Associates Family Dentistry offers in the Southern Pines NC area.

Watch the Interview about Lane & Associates Southern Pines below:

Don’t want to enable sound? Here’s a transcript of the interview:

Amy: Hi, it’s Amy and I’m with Star 102.5 and we are back again to present our Annual Vital Signs program to you. Today I’m speaking with Dr. Raleigh Wright, who is the CEO and dentist for over 25 years, here at Lane & Associates Family Dentistry in Southern Pines. Dr. Wright, tell me about the services that are offered here at the office.

Dr. Wright: We offer everything from a Child’s First Dental Visit where we make it happy and fun for them all the way up to Adults and elderly people helping them with maintaining their teeth and their smiles for a Lifetime. We offer all services from Orthodontic care to Oral Surgery needs, implant dentistry, we just got our new CADCAM Dentistry which offers same-day crowns (These are one-visit crowns instead of having to come back for two visits). So, we’re pretty much a one-stop shop for all of your dental needs.

Amy: So when we talk about Lane & Associates Family Dentistry, it really is a Family Dentistry practice. What’s the age that you recommend parents start to bring in their little ones for that First Dental check-up?

Dr. Wright: So around 3 years old is usually the standard but if you have a small child or a baby under the age of 3 years old that looks like they have some needs, we are more than happy to see them! Many of our offices are actually in the process of adding Baby Oral Exams.

Amy: One of the new features of your website is that new patients can register online. So whether it’s 3 o’clock in the afternoon or 3 in the morning and somebody decides that they need to come in to see you or one of the other providers, they can hop on that website and do a new patient registration. Which is very very convenient.

Dr. Wright: Yes, and you can fill out all of the paperwork so it can save you some time here as well.

Amy: Absolutely! That’s right. Any New Patient specials going on?

Dr. Wright: So right now we are offering New patients that come in for their first cleaning and initial visit – the Quip Toothbrush. Which is a popular trending innovation in electric toothbrushes and everybody is in love with it. So you get that for Free if you are a new hygiene patient with us. We also are offering orthodontic patients, a Waterpik water flosser after new ortho treatment.

Amy: So speaking of Orthodontics, that’s something that’s relatively new to Lane & Associates and you see all ages for Orthodontics, from children up to Adults.

Dr. Wright: Yes, you’d be surprised how many adults want to get their teeth straight again if they didn’t wear their retainers after they had their braces on back in high school.

Amy: Yup, when mom and dad got on them and said, “Wear your retainer!” And so Invisalign is also another option?

Dr. Wright: Absolutely, yes.

Amy: So, Lane & Associates is located on Highway 15/501 in Southern Pines NC, across the street from Zaxby’s Restaurant, in the former Chamber of Commerce building. Make sure to visit LANEDDS.COM to get more information about the providers, their services, and for new patients to register online!

White building with triangular roof and columns and Lane DDS sign on front

Lane & Associates is opening our new Dental Office in Pinehurst NC in June 2018! The office was previously owned and operated by the Moore County Chamber of Commerce and has since been entirely remodeled. From brand new chevron floors in the waiting area to Large TVs and beverage stations, the new building is a complete hit! We truly believe our patients will love the new office as much as we do.

We are also partnering with an in-house Oral Surgery and Orthodontics group, known as NC Oral Surgery + Orthodontics (NCOSO), who will begin working in the same building in approximately 3 months. This is an exciting opportunity for the Pinehurst NC community to have an all-in-one dental office for the entire family. From dental cleanings and fillings to restorative crowns, braces, and dental implants, we will have it all!

Located off of US Hwy 15/501, our new Pinehurst dental office is nearby to local shopping and eateries. Our new address is 10677 U.S. 15/501 Southern Pines, NC 28387. For Maps & Directions, please visit our Southern Pines NC Dental Office location page or call our office at 910-295-5980 to learn more.
