Crown patients needed

The Center for Dental Research is conducting an Artglass single crown study.
I am requesting your assistance in helping us locate approximately 30-35 patients for a six-month study. It is our goal to have the patients enrolled and the crowns placed by the close of summer quarter 1999.
1. We are looking for single crowns in the posterior region.
2. We can enroll the patient with a maximum of 2 crowns.
3. The patient will receive a $100 reduction off the cost of each regular crown.
I would encourage faculty, students & staff participation. I trust you will assist the Center for Dental Research in the enrollment process for our present and soon too be future studies.
Should you have any questions, I can be reached at (909) 558-4000 x83542 or (909) 558-0656.
I look forward to working with you in the near future.
Alisa Wilson, RDA, OSA, Clinical Research Coordinator, Center for Dental Research

Dear Christy,
I just finished reading the article about the "School junk food burglar"-- I loved it! [July Dentalgram]
You must be proud, it is very good. Sometimes I wish I could have you here with me, I have to write so many compositions. Glad Lucinda came back [from Brazil]. I'm sure she has a lot of interesting things to tell all of you, and not to mention the pictures! Say Hi to everybody. I have very good memories about all of you in my mind. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon...

Dear Christy,
Both Bob and I deeply appreciate the effort you put into the article Urgent Care: We've Got It Down [July Dentalgram]. You wrote an articulate story conveying a complicated sequence of events while giving credit to all the professional and staff personnel involved in the livesaving scenario.
We walk among angels. Miracles do happen.
Most sincerely, thank you.
Mary Lou and (Dr.) Robert Clement

Hello, Christy,
We were very pleased and happy to see Bob's [Darby, SD'61] photo in the Dentalgram [March ë99], so we thank you. This has been a first for him through all the years that we can remember, so you are on our special "like" list. Thanks again.
Bob and Joann Darby

Dear Christy,
For the record, I still want hard copy of the Dentalgram. Sometimes there are things there that you want to keep and printing a copy from a department printer often does not have the same quality.
