ST. ALBANS -- Warnick Dentalin St. Albans has announced thatthe dental practice has launcheda new website.
The site, www.warnickden-tal.com , is designed to educatepatients about different dentaltreatments.
Warnick Dental serves theHurricane, Scott Depot, SouthCharleston and Winfield com-munities.
The website features a "Pa-tient Education" library high-lighting different dentalprocedures, such as dental im-plants.
The goal is to provide patientswith information on populartreatments, including Invisalignand teeth whitening, and to takethe stress out of a visit to thedentist.
"When it comes to visiting adentist, many patients can expe-rience severe anxiety," said Dr.Melissa Warnick. "Treatmentslike root canals or dental crownscan be understandably stressfulfor patients, especially if they arenot sure what is going to hap-pen. Our goal with the new web-site is to help patients relax byproviding comprehensive infor-mation about our dental serv-ices. When patients know whatto expect, procedures seem lessstressful."
The new website includes a"Patient Education" library withinformation on common dentalprocedures. The 3D dental video
library shows patients how aprocedure like dental implantswill be performed. The libraryalso includes video demonstra-tions for proper brushing andflossing techniques.
"When it comes to providingpediatric dentistry, my goal is towork with young patients andteach them proper dental carefrom an early age," said Dr.Melissa Warnick. "But, preven-tion is the best treatment at anyage. Proper flossing and brush-ing skills set the foundation for alifetime of good oral health care.The 3D videos are an easy wayfor children and adults to learnthese basics."
The website also features in-formation on popular dentalprocedures, including teethwhitening and Invisalign treat-
ments. Dr. Steve Warnick ex-plains the difference betweenat-home teeth whitening and in-office whitening.
"At-home treatments are greatfor simple touch-ups, althoughthey are not powerful enough toremove serious stains fromsmoking, coffee or wine drink-ing," said Dr. Steve Warnick. "Ialways tell my patients that forserious stain removal, in-officetreatments ensure even whiten-ing. The new website is a greatresource to help patients exploretheir different whitening optionsand find a treatment that's rightfor them."
The dentists also encouragepatients to learn more about im-plant dentistry and dental prob-lems by visiting the website'sdental blog.
They frequently posts updateson the latest dental care treat-ments, as well as helpful at-home care tips.
Potential patients may alsovisit the website's "SmileGallery" to see before and afterphotos from actual patients.
"There is no better way to seethe difference that implant den-tistry can have on a smile than tovisit our smile gallery," said Dr.Melissa Warnick. "I'm thrilled tobe able to share these photos onour website so patients can seefirst-hand the outcome of differ-ent procedures, such as capsand veneers, Invisalign and den-tal implants."
Prospective patients may alsouse the website's new, onlineappointment request form toschedule an initial consultation.

Officials have updated West Vir-ginia's sport-fish consumption advi-sory, with a small change thanks toimproving contaminant levels on theKanawha River upstream of Dunbarand a coordinated multi-state effort toprovide consistent advisories thisyear for the Ohio River. The fish consumption advisories
are based on a cooperative effort ofthe West Virginia Division of NaturalResources, Bureau of Public Healthand the Division of EnvironmentalProtection. Brett Preston, West Virginia DNR
wildlife resources chief, said the ad-visories are intended primarily forhigh-risk groups – children, pregnantwomen, nursing mothers, or womenwho plan to become pregnant.“If I'm not in any of those groups,
I might eat three meals a month (in atwo-meal-a-month advisory), tryingto balance the health benefits of eat-ing fish versus something else thatmay be higher in fat and cholesterol.That's why you have to develop riskmanagement, people make decisionsbased on risk, whether driving a caror eating meals. We try to give gen-eral guidelines and be specific forwaters where we have information,so people can make an informed de-cision,” Preston said. The most stringent advisories are
brought on by dioxin and polychlori-nated biphenyl (PCB) contamination,a legacy left over from historical pol-lution. The contaminants remain inthe environment for many years. Dioxins are stored in body fat and
can remain in the system for adecade, but eating wild fish isn't theonly source – trace amounts can befound in other foods - and virtuallyeveryone has some level of it in theirsystem. PCBs were commonly used
in as dielectric and in coolant fluidsin electrical components, such astransformers, motors and capacitors.Production was outlawed in theUnited States in 1979. Mercury pollution, however, is on-
going. The largest source of mercurypollution is coal-fired power plants. Test results have indicated lower
levels of polychlorinated biphenyl(PCB) in the Kanawha River up-stream of the I-64 bridge in Dunbar.
This year, the one-meal-a-month con-sumption advisory for channel catfishless than 17-inches long has beendropped on that stretch of river. Thestatewide advisory is one meal aweek.On Kanawha River downstream of
the I-64 bridge in Dunbar: there is a“do not eat” advisory for Flatheadcatfish, channel catfish, carp, hybridstriped bass, suckers, do not eat, be-cause of dioxin and PCBs. All otherfish one meal a week. These advi-sories include all backwaters, includ-ing Armour Creek, Heizer Creek,Manila Creek and the lower twomiles of the Pocatalico River. West Virginia DNR fish biologist
Zack Brown said that while the advi-sories are simply a means to helppeople calculate risk, people shouldpay close attention to the “do-not-eat” advisories.“We base our lives on weighing
risk factors. Every day you take risks,people get in their cars and drive,some smoke or drink alcohol and it'sto let people know that certain factorsincrease health risks. We do have acouple of do-not-eat advisories – Iwould be very respectful of those,”he said. This year the fish advisories are a
bit less confusing for the Ohio River.In the past, each state did its ownsampling, leading to slightly differ-ent advisories for the same stretchesof water on the Ohio River (of which
West Virginia claims to the historiclow-water mark on the Ohio side, buta small strip of the river is in Ohio).This year's Ohio River advisorieswere coordinated by the Ohio RiverSanitation Commission, resulting inone set of advisories for certainstretches of river. On the Ohio River, from Belleville
(Wood County) to the Kentucky bor-der, the advisory is two meals a yearfor channel catfish greater than 18inches. Channel catfish less than 18inches, carp, flathead catfish, fresh-water drum larger than 14 inches,striped bass, hybrid striped bass,suckers, and white bass are one meala month on that section of the Ohio.The statewide advisory for hybrid
striped bass and white bass is onemeal a month due to mercury andPCBs. The Black bass, channel cat-fish greater than 17 inches, flatheadcatfish, rock bass, walleye, saugeyeand suckers advisory is two meals amonth, also because of mercury andPCB.Channel catfish less than 17 inches
and all other fish (except rainbowtrout) to one meal per week. There isno advisory for rainbow trout. The complete list of advisories for
the state’s waters is available in thecurrent Fishing Regulations publica-tion. Contact David Payne Sr. at david-
Fish Consumption Advisories Updated By David Payne Sr.
Sen. Joe Manchin, (D-W.Va.) re-cently introduced legislation in theU.S. Senate that would create a na-tional reciprocity for concealed-carrypermits. Under the legislation, anyone with
a valid ID and concealed-carry per-mit could carry a concealed handgunin any state that also allows residents
to carry and would replace a compli-cated patchwork of state reciprocalagreements. “This commonsense legislation,”
Manchin said, “would cut down onthe layers of regulations facing law-abiding Americans who have theright to own guns and use them re-sponsibly. If we can streamline andsimplify some of our rules governinggun ownership, everybody wins – es-pecially the 65,000 West Virginianswho hold concealed-carry permits.”The legislation would, however,
exclude people from obtaining anout-of-state permit with less restric-tive eligibility requirements and usethat permit to carry in his or her ownstate. For West Virginia permit holders,
it would increase the number of re-ciprocal states from 39 to 49. Itwould not apply in the People's Re-public of Illinois and the People'sDistrict of Columbia, which honoronly what sections of the Bill ofRights that please the elitist lawmak-ers. Citizens there enjoy only Soviet-
style gun rights and are not allowedto carry firearms.While concealed-carry is techni-
cally legal in the vast majority ofstates, I would expect some opposi-tion from quite a few lawmakers inplaces like Massachusetts, New Jer-sey and Hawaii where concealedcarry is supposedly legal, but virtu-ally all permit requests are deniedand in California, where you prettymuch have to be a movie star ormusic mogul to get a permit in manyareas. By the way, only Vermont andAlaska have actually gotten it rightby allowing law-abiding citizens tocarry firearms without a permit –those states recognizing that it is theBill of Rights, not state law that givescitizens these rights. Sen. Mark Be-gich, (D-Alaska), incidentally, is co-sponsor of this bill. •The DNR is filling seven conser-
vation-officer positions statewide.Minimum qualifications are gradua-tion from an accredited four-year col-lege (preference given to
natural-sciences or law-enforcementdegrees) or previous law-enforce-ment experience may be substituted.To be considered for a position, youmust pass a physical test, which isscheduled for 8 a.m. April 13th and14th at the South Charleston Com-munity Center, 601 Jefferson Street. The physical test consists of three
parts, a 37.5 yard swim (fullyclothed), 18 push-ups in one minute,27 sit-ups in one minute and a 1.5-mile run in 15 minutes, 20 seconds orless. About 10 years ago, I took that
physical test. I grew up on the banksof the Elk River, so I've always beenable to swim well. The hardest partfor me initially was the 1.5-mile run.However, after a couple of months ofsome intense training, I could run 1.5miles in the time allotted, I could dothe push-ups and sit-ups in the timeallotted and I could swim well. Yet, Ifailed the run portion of the test be-cause I was exhausted from theswim.What I wasn't ready for was doing
all three in a row and if you are train-ing for this test, keep in mind that youare going to have to do all these push-ups, sit-ups and this run very soonAFTER you've done this exhaustingswim. Trust me, it is exhausting, be-cause you have to do it fully clothed(but no jeans or sweatpants).My mistake during the swim was
wearing a pair of polyester-blendslacks that were loose-fitting and thepant legs created a great amount ofdrag in the water. I would suggesttrying out different slacks in thewater before you take your test. I also strongly suggest that as you
train, try doing all three in a row.Swim 40 yards fully clothed, changeinto some shorts and a t-shirt, do thepush-ups and sit-ups, then time your-self in a 1.5-mile run.
