October has finally arrived for Spilman Dentistry and Dr. Spilman and his team can’t wait to get into the Halloween spirit. One of the best parts about this time of year is the transition to the holiday season. It’s also a wake-up call for Dr. Spilman to start getting organized for an insanely busy two months both at home and in the office! We will have spooky, yet tasteful, Halloween decorations around our office.
Even though we care deeply about dental hygiene, it’s always good to indulge (a little) in some delicious candy. Without a doubt, Reese’s peanut butter cups are our favorite sweet treat.
Some of Dr. Spilman’s treasured Halloween memories involve the costumes he dresses up in. The very first costume he remembers was dressing up as a Tiger! In elementary school, his mom would make all of his costumes. One year he went as “the Big Fig Newton” from the TV commercials! Heather and Dr. Spilman dress up as the Spartan Cheerleaders from Saturday Night Live. They have the whole routine down and crush it every single time!
In addition to the costumes, the candy, and the decor, there are so many great movies, too. Dr. Spilman likes to keep it scary so his go-to Halloween movie is the original Halloween. It was the first “R” rated movie that Dr. Spilman had ever been to and it still terrifies him to this day!
On Halloween, Dr. Spilman will attend his annual neighborhood Hallow Wine where they all drink wine and hand out candy together!
It’s a great time to remind our patients that their dental benefits will be ending at the end of the year and they should schedule their appointments now because we get so busy towards the end of the year! We hope to see you in our office soon!
