Get to know Prosthodontist Dr. Susan M. Mazzei, who serves patients in Illinois.

New York City, New York Jun 29, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Dr. Mazzei is a highly skilled dentist with a specialty in prosthodontics at West Suburban Oral Health Care. She is dedicated to providing gentle and effective care to patients of all backgrounds and ages in Naperville, Illinois.

Focused on building relationships through excellence in dentistry, Dr. Mazzei believes that excellent oral health begins with education and prevention. Her professional philosophy is aligned with Functional Medicine, which determines how and why illness occurs and restores health by addressing the root causes of disease for each individual. She strives to redefine the boundaries of oral systemic health and has made it her mission to enlighten patients on how they can take greater control over their dental health, which then supports optimal systemic health.

While growing up in Grosse Pointe, Michigan, Dr. Mazzei aspired to someday help people, and was intrigued by a dental assisting program offered at her high school. Her studies in psychology at the University of Michigan laid the foundation of her knowledge base concerning human nature and how they think. She earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Northwestern University Dental School in 1987. Later, she completed a specialty certification in prosthodontics.

Upon the completion of her studies, Dr. Mazzei joined the faculty of Northwestern University Dental School as a full-time Clinical Assistant Professor. Her tenure continued for twelve years, where she enjoyed educating future dentists in all facets of their four-year education.

After these years of hard work and dedication, she was granted an Assistant Professor Emeritus at Northwestern University.

An avid lifelong learner, Dr. Mazzei is constantly reading, attending webinars, continuing her education, and remaining current with the latest advancements in oral health and dentistry. She is a Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach, a Charter Fellow in the American Academy of Oral Systemic Health, and has completed the Preceptorship Program of the Bale and Doneen Method.

Prosthodontics, also known as dental prosthetics or prosthetic dentistry, is the area of dentistry that focuses on dental prostheses. Prosthodontists specialize in replacing missing teeth and associated oral structures by determining the type of dental prostheses required, having customized dental prostheses manufactured, and fitting them in patients' mouths. They also treat temporomandibular disorders and various issues associated with damaged and problematic teeth.

How Wang Zhenyi, Chinese female astronomer and mathematician, defied gender expectations

As moon-gazers look skyward during the Mid-Autumn Festival weekend, they should spare a thought for Wang Zhenyi, one of China’s most notable astronomers and mathematicians – and a woman. Living during the Qing dynasty (1644-1912), when a learned woman was expected to do little more than ornament a household with poetry, Wang wanted something bolder: to explain eclipses. Her answer was physical, not mystical. It involved light, shadow and the movement of the moon. Using a round table for the...

Puregold Hakot Relay draws 4,000 runners

More than 4,000 runners gathered at Vermosa Sports Hub in Imus, Cavite, for the South Luzon leg of Puregold’s Hakot Relay, which introduced a new 8K Individual Challenge alongside the event’s signature grocery-themed relay. The South Luzon leg marked the first time the Hakot Relay featured an individual 8-km race, giving solo runners a chance to take on a longer course while maintaining the event’s signature grocery “hakot” concept. About 500 participants joined the 8K Individual Challenge, while the rest competed in the traditional Hakot Relay, where runners formed teams and raced through the course while collecting grocery items along the way. Unlike the relay, which required teamwork and strategy, the 8K challenge tested participants individually as they completed the full distance on their own. “We wanted to offer runners a fresh and enjoyable way to challenge themselves, with the ‘hakot’ mechanic adding a playful and uniquely Puregold twist to the race. Being part of the running community is meaningful to us, and it is a privilege for Puregold to bring people together for a shared panalo experience,” said Ivy Hayagan-Piedad, Puregold senior marketing manager. The event began with a pre-race warm-up before participants headed to the starting line. Runners then completed their respective courses within the prescribed cut-off times. After crossing the finish line, participants received their race-day rewards and visited sampling booths featuring participating brands. Sponsor-led activities and an awarding ceremony followed the races. The team relay participants received a Grocery Sling Bag and a Finisher’s Grocery Bag. Meanwhile, 8K Individual Challenge finishers received a distinct reward that matched the event’s grocery-themed concept: a finisher’s grocery cart wagon to carry their loot home. “We’re always looking for ways to level up the Hakot Relay and give Filipinos something new to look forward to. This year, it meant introducing our first-ever 8K challenge and bringing the experience to an even bigger scale,” Piedad said. With more than 4,000 runners participating as teams or individual competitors, the South Luzon leg expanded the Hakot Relay format while retaining its signature reward, allowing participants to race to the finish line and take home groceries.

Here I concentrate on a more insidious encroachment on our humanity – how AI is capturing our creative expression and replacing us in a way that is making it harder to discern what is creatively human. As a scientist, my inclination is to filter...

Alicia Keys, Gigi Hadid and Jennifer Lopez bring star power to Vogue World in Milan

MILAN — Most of Italy’s fashion elite gathered under one roof Tuesday for Vogue’s annual fashion spectacle in the historic Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II shopping arcade, featuring performances by Alicia Keys and Italian ballet star Roberto Bolle. Part runway show, part cultural performance, this year’s Vogue World highlighted Italian craftsmanship and human creativity in the age of artificial intelligence. Donatella Versace sat alongside Gucci's Demna, Balenciaga's Pierpaolo Piccioli and Valentino's Alessandro Michele – the latter three having recently completed a game of fashion house musical chairs. Miuccia Prada, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana were also on hand for the event that celebrated the kind of handcraftsmanship that has put Italy at the center of luxury fashion. About half of the world’s luxury apparel, footwear and leather goods are produced in Italy. Gigi Hadid opened the evening gliding through the arcade in a gold brocade gown celebrating the Italian Renaissance. Jennifer Lopez, arriving with designers Dolce and Gabbana, took a turn in a black evening dress. Supermodel Eva Herzegova led a tribute to the late Giorgio Armani, who died last September. Many designer wears were recognizable as they blazed across the marble gallery floor on models, Italian celebrities and athletes — including trailing Moncler puffers, Prada’s banana-print button down shirt, a safety pin-cinched Versace evening gown, a Pucci print and a Bottega Veneta fiberglass coat. Keys closed the evening performing in a beaded dress with a regal train under the Galleria's glass dome. Bolle, who performed with dancers from La Scala's academy, presented her with a rose. Milan was the last of the four major fashion capitals to host the event, which launched in New York in 2022, followed by editions in London, Paris and Los Angeles. This edition raised money for a cultural center fostering fashion, music and artistic talent at the Quarto Oggiaro Library in northwestern Milan.

How Chinese first lady Peng Liyuan is a symbol of China’s fashion soft power

Chinese first lady Peng Liyuan has long been a symbol of China’s fashion soft power at high-profile global summits as she accompanies President Xi Jinping. She has eschewed Western luxury labels and logos in favour of chic local brands and modern Chinese styles – a well-tailored qipao, say, or elegant scarves and coats in formal yet feminine colours. Case in point: the outfit she wore as she stepped off the plane for the much-anticipated Xi-Trump meeting in the US on September 23. Her grey...
