Healthy Aging magazine has chosen September as Healthy Aging Month®. This is a time to focus on the positive aspects on growing older. As one of the healthiest communities in the country, healthy aging is a part of everyday life for people over 45 in Cherry Creek, and all around the Denver area. While eating right and getting plenty of outdoor activity is central to the lifestyle of the Front Range, it can be easy to overlook the importance of good dental hygiene and regular visits to your dentist
