Wellness Hour – Dental health

Event Series Event Series: Wellness Hour (Virtual Meeting)

Oct 14 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

5:00 pm ET | 4:00 pm CT | 3:00 pm MT | 2:00 pm PT

Bryan Bowman DDS

This month we welcome Drs. Bryan Bowman and Daniel Rexin. Dental health is important for everyone, but people with FSHD may have special challenges. Weak cheek and mouth muscles can affect bite, tooth alignment, and oral health. Flossing and brushing can become difficult if your hands and arms are losing strength and coordination. Our guest speakers provide care for patients with FSHD and will share their insights.

Dr. Bowman is a native of Washington State. He received his Bachelor’s degree from the University of Puget Sound, graduating Magna Cum Laude, with a degree in chemistry. He is a 1980 graduate of the University of Washington, School of Dentistry. Dr. Bowman is an active member of the American Dental Association. He is also an active member and past president of The Kitsap County Dental Society.

Dr. Rexin was born in Bremerton and grew up about half a mile from Safe Harbor Smiles. While completing an engineering degree at Walla Walla University in Eastern Washington, he decided to pivot and pursue a career that would help make a direct, tangible difference in individuals’ everyday lives. Dentistry combines his passions for science, engineering, and serving his community. Dr. Rexin studied dentistry at the Loma Linda University School of Dentistry in Southern California. “I enjoy the satisfaction of helping people live their fullest lives by preventing and treating oral disease,” he says.


Our monthly Zoom meeting on Wellness is held on the second Monday of each month at 5:00-6:00 pm ET. Each month, we’ll have a conversation starter topic, but this is an informal gathering and if the discussion veers off in other directions, that’s OK! We hope you’ll drop by to enjoy the company of some of the wonderful people in our community.

We will open the Zoom room a half hour early (4:30 pm ET) so members can enjoy an open forum to discuss whatever is on their minds. Rick Whitehead will be on hand to welcome you in. Wellness Hour has become such a popular destination and we never have enough time for everyone to share what’s on their minds, so we thought we’d try this approach.

If you are interested, please register by clicking on the link below. You only need to register once for the monthly series. You’ll receive notifications from Zoom with the meeting information.
