Women's bodies undergo hormonal fluctuations until menopause due to their normal cycle (and pregnancy if it occurs). After menopause there are new changes as hormone levels decrease.

These changes affect every part of a woman's body including oral health.

Women are at an increased risk for periodontal disease and other oral problems due to the hormonal changes that they undergo naturally, particularly the low levels of estrogen. They are also more susceptible to dry mouth and general mouth discomfort.

February 15 was Flag Day in Canada. The flag as we know it today has been the official flag of our nation since it was passed and raised by parliament in 1965. It was designed by George F.G. Stanley and was inspired by the Royal Military College of Canada's flag.

The need for a new flag was a source of hot debate as early as 1925 in Canadian history. Before the current flag Canada flew the Royal Union Flag of the Great Britain, which you will notice is still incorporated in Ontario's and other provincial flags.

The use of a maple leaf a symbol in Canadian history can be dated back as far as 1700. As for the colours, red and white were designated as Canada's official colours by King George V in 1921, while the pattern of red white red had been used as early as 1899 in General Service Medals issued by Queen Victoria. The Canadian Flag is a source of pride and unity for our citizens and is respected worldwide.

A person who studies flags is called a Vexillologist. Many Vexillologists argue that the Canadian flag is one of the most beautiful based on its simplicity and use of few colours.
