Yanni Family Orthodontics attended the 12th Annual A.C.E. (Advocates for Catholic Education) Gala Celebration on Saturday April 2, 2016 at Storrowton Carriage House in West Springfield, MA.
The Longmeadow Educational Excellence Foundation (LEEF) held it’s annual Gala on November 7, 2015 at Twin Hills Country Club in Longmeadow, MA. The Gala, LEEF’s largest fundraising event of the year, was well attended by parents and other supporters of Longmeadow schools. Attendees had the opportunity to bid, in both a live and silent auctions, on a wide variety of items, including a comprehensive orthodontic treatment package (valued at $5,600) donated by Dr. Janice Yanni and Yanni Family Orthodontics, pc. This is Dr. Yanni’s second year supporting LEEF. The Jasmin family was the high bidder for this year’s orthodontic package. Dr. Yanni and the whole team at Yanni Family Orthodontics thanks the Jasmin family for their support of such a worthy cause and looks forward to giving them a whole new reason to smile!
“Start check!” a technician called, and Dr. Ben Burris stood up from his MacBook in an anteroom of one of his 22 offices, a recent acquisition in the unlikely empire he’s building around the State of Arkansas: as of last year, the world’s largest privately owned orthodontics practice. “I mean, it’s not rocket science,” he said, rounding the corner to return to the immaculate, U-shaped treatment room that was pulsing with activity. Light was flooding through a bank of windows overlooking a strip-mall parking lot and a highway in Siloam Springs, near the Oklahoma border. Seven occupied chairs sat beside seven computer terminals. Technicians — young, all female, each wearing matching slim-cut pink scrubs — were whirling back and forth from the overflowing waiting room to the chairs to a giant island in the middle of the room, where they gathered hardware, chatted, and gooped huge blops of alginate for various orthodontic impressions. Rihanna beamed in via satellite: “We found love in a hopeless place, we found love in a — hopeless — place.”
