(B) We used a combination of three market segmentation variables using two different approaches. We chose these variables because we feel that they are the best choices for differentiating between market segments. The first thing we did was use the Geographic approach to limit our scope. Using the Regional variable to divide Canada into provinces, we decided to limit our market to that of Newfoundland and Labrador; as a new start-up, it makes sense to begin small with a familiar market with the potential

Cosmetic Dentistry Corrects Tooth Appearance and Brightens Smiles Cosmetic dentistry is an ideal way to correct the appearance of a person’s smile appeal and to brighten the whiteness of smiles. The two most popular methods for improving someone’s smile are dental veneers and tooth whitening. Rarely does someone have teeth that are perfectly aligned or have the shade of whiteness that they desire.

Introduction: “People across North America use different words to identify a sugary, carbonated soft drink. But however they say it, they're talking about something that can cause serious oral health problems” (Soda or Pop?). What are the effects of soda on teeth? That is the question at hand.

According to Robert and Diane, UA may arise from reduced enamel epithelium; or may occur as a transformation of dentigerous cyst into unicystic ameloblastoma; or due to cystic degeneration of solid/multicystic ameloblastoma[2,5]. Usually UA occurs in young individuals (second to third decades of life) [3] with

healthy food choice. Parents prefer that their children reach for a sweet fruit instead of other snacks. While fruit may be full of vitamins and fiber for our bodies, some are very acidic. This acid can damage our teeth by eating away at the protective enamel. Personally, I eat fruit with every meal and for snacks and sometimes dessert. In eating all this fruit, I can be doing something really healthy for my body but may be hurting my teeth. This experiment will test the pH level of everyday fruits after
