6,500 patients were seen at the Georgia GMOM (Mission of Mercy), the North Carolina NCMOM, and the South Carolina DAD (Dental Access Days) events, over a three week time frame. Atlanta Dental Supply would like to recognize and say “Thank you” to all the dental professionals that gave of their time and skills to bring healing and comfort to those who otherwise would not have received dental care. We were proud to have 26 Atlanta Dental employees work closely with all the events to provide support for set up, ongoing service, tear down, supplies and distribution, as well as assistance wherever we were needed. Our employees volunteered their time and found personal reward through their involvement and the opportunity to be part of a significant community outreach. It was a privilege to serve alongside the dental teams as they provided clinical excellence in less than perfect conditions, while creating an atmosphere of total acceptance and genuine care for the patients and each other. We thank you for the opportunity to serve with you. Watching you in action brought even greater respect and appreciation for you and this wonderful profession.

For one rep, playing college football was a long shot. Playing with the pro’s was a dream come true.

rowing up, Jim Maxwell insisted on doing everything his older brother did. So, as soon as he was old enough, he strapped on a pair of football pads and hit the field. “I was in and have been ever since,” says the Atlanta Dental sales rep. By the time he got to high school, he was good enough to join his small Johnsonville, S.C., high school football team as a quarterback, he recalls. Following high school graduation, he assumed he would attend Clemson University, as did his brother and father. As it turned out, attending a small, little-known college, Gardner-Webb, was his ticket to play college football – and pursue a 5 ½-year career playing professional football. So, the 6-foot, 3-inch, 180-pound college freshman accepted a partial scholarship and set out to prove himself to his coaches and teammates. “I was red-shirted,” says Maxwell. “I moved to defense and started as a linebacker.” Four years, 60 pounds and 1 inch later, his game skills were hard to miss. Still, who would have suspected that he would be scouted his senior year, he says. “This was the first time I thought I had an opportunity to continue to play football,” he says. “It was a long shot, but I thought it would be great to one day tell my kids about it.” One of 53 For Maxwell, his main focus in college was to do well. “The NFL just happened,” he notes. So, the 11 offers to sign as an undrafted free agent with such teams as the New York Giants, the Detroit Lions, the Miami Dolphins and the Atlanta Falcons, came as quite

a surprise, he recalls. In the end, he went with the Giants. “It was such an honor,” he says. “I wasn’t sure what I was getting into, but it was very exciting.” That, and a whole lot of hard work, he discovered. Free agents join a roster of about 85 other players when they begin training camp, Maxwell explains. “Only about 53 of these players actually make the team. Just to have made it to training camp was such a long shot in my mind! I definitely wasn’t supposed to be one of the 53 players to move on.” That September, however, he joined 52 fellow players who would begin their first season in the NFL. “I definitely had to prove myself to the other guys,” he says. “They had never even heard of my college. “The NFL is such a competitive environment,” Maxwell continues. [Spectators] could never imagine the scrutiny and pressure the players are under. The coaches put extreme pressure on the players, and if they have one bad game, they may be fired the next day. “Every day, you’re in there with the best-of-the-best,”
cluding Michael Strahan, Tiki Barber, Eli Manning, Jeremy Shockey, Frank Gore, Jason Taylor, Zach Thomas, Carson Palmer and Chad Ochocinco. And, it was definitely a growing experience, he adds. “Johnsonville, S.C., where I grew up, is a two-stoplight town. My college, GardnerWebb, was in a one-stoplight town. Moving to New Jersey to play for the Giants was very overwhelming. [My future wife], Lindsey, was finishing up college, and I was by myself. I’m used to saying, ‘Hey!’ to everyone I pass on the street.” He quickly learned that doesn’t work in Jersey. What began as an exciting career soon turned exhausting, however, as Maxwell and Lindsey were forced to crisscross the country as he signed with one team after another. “We were always leaving behind new friends,” he notes. “Lindsey was very supportive, but I knew it was stressful on her. She is a nurse and would have to leave behind a job and find a new one in the next city.” Against the odds, the young couple stuck with the game two years beyond the average NFL career. Then, in 2009, Maxwell
“Whether you are selling a case of cotton rolls or making the opening tackle on Monday Night Football, it’s all about doing the things it takes to be great. Never be satisfied with being good. Be great!” – Jim Maxwell
he continues. “Every year, they hold the NFL draft. For every one of the guys that makes the team, [another guy] won’t be back. On one hand, you’d love to play football forever, but from a mental and physical standpoint, you can’t do that.” That said, he made it through his rookie year with the New York Giants (2004) and followed up with another 4 ½ years with several other teams, including the San Francisco 49ers (2005), the Miami Dolphins (2006) and the Cincinnati Bengals (2007-09). During that time, Maxwell rubbed shoulders with a number of football notables, in-

SureFil® SDR® flow material is the first and only flowable composite that can be placed as a bulk base in increments up to 4mm! This bulk fill indication reduces the procedure time significantly - by up to 40% versus procedures in which a flowable composite is used as a base/liner and then incremental placements of a universal composite are used.
Sonic activation enables a rapid flow of composite into the cavity for effortless placement and superior adaptation.

Ivoclar Vivadent Tetric EvoFlow® Syringe
Nano-optimized flowable composite Tetric EvoFlow is the new nano-optimized flowable composite from Ivoclar Vivadent and the successor product of Tetric Flow. Tetric EvoFlow is characterized by optimum surface affinity. It penetrates even into areas that are difficult to reach. In addition, it is suitable as an initial layer under mediumviscosity composites, such as Tetric EvoCeram. At the same time, however, Tetric EvoFlow is stable if required and thus ideally suitable for Class V restorations. The material can be used for extended fissure sealing and the adhesive cementation technique.

What’s inside your metal syringe tip? We took tips that were in use in an office in Charlotte, NC. They were taken to a dental lab and cut in half. In the outer tubes the brass becomes discolored and begins to corrode. The inner tube (not pictured) also corrodes. Is this what you want to subject your patients to?

ScanX®
Above, Left to Right: ScanX Classic, Duo and Intraoral
ScanX With Phosphor Plates Is The Most Compelling Digital Radiography Technology Available.
Multiply Your Productivity. All models feature Intelligent Track Control which allows the processing slots to be independently operated by two users at the same time, treating different patients.
Expect more. ScanX has the versatility and digital imaging capability you’ll want. Whatever your imaging requirements, ScanX will give you the complete digital solution - and advantages that don’t exist with sensors. We have three ScanX models; a product for all digital applications. Every ScanX works with your existing X-ray equipment.
The Advantages of Phosphor Storage Plate (PSP) Technology. Imagine a receptor even thinner than a dental film pack. Almost weightless, simple to position, flexible, comfortable, economical and reusable, phosphor plates are truly an advanced technology. Contrasted with sensors, a PSP is ultra-thin and patients are highly unlikely to experience discomfort. There are no wires hanging from their mouth. Sensors are such an expensive component that insurance policies are offered; an expense not needed when using a PSP.
Do you work with both intraoral and extraoral images? Then use ScanX Classic with your film based Panoramic or Cephalometric X-ray unit to create digital radiographs without an expensive conversion. Replace film with the appropriate size Phosphor Storage Plate and you are completely digital. Plus, Classic accepts all intraoral sizes; 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4. Do you own a digital pan? Or, are all of your imaging needs intraoral? ScanX Intraoral accepts sizes 0 through 4. It is perfect for a central digital processing location within your practice.
Placement is Key Sometimes overlooked is the fact that placement of the receptor is key to obtaining a diagnostic image - one without elongation or foreshortening.
Call Atlanta Dental for a complete evaluation of your digital needs.
For chairside intraoral imaging choose Duo. Like Classic and Intraoral, Duo accepts sizes 0 through 4, yet its compact footprint takes less than 12” of space. 5

DENTAL ADVISER
Working with an
ADVISORY TEAM
Mismanagement is often the reason for new business failure. Therefore, a wise business owner surrounds himself with the talented and experienced people it takes to make a business survive, grow, and prosper.
To run a business properly, you need to have expertise in a number of areas—financial planning, accounting, law, taxation, insurance, and investment management, to name a few. Because it is often impossible for a professional in one of these areas to be an expert in all of the other areas as well, it is often desirable for business owners to work with a team of advisers. Naturally, however, you’ll need a quarterback to direct and coordinate the advisory team. Typically, this person is your financial planner. What is the first thing a new president of the United States does after being sworn in to office? He builds his cabinet, selecting the most qualified persons to advise him on matters in which he himself is not qualified. The secretary of defense counsels the president on military matters, the secretary of state counsels him on worldwide political matters, and the secretary of the interior counsels him on the environment. Thus, the president generally makes no decision until he is fully apprised by the experts. That’s what you need to do. You need to build your
own cabinet or team of professional advisers who can help develop and implement your business plans most effectively. Tip: Banks are more likely to lend money to a business that is managed by people with extensive experience in the type of business you own. An advisory team that provides management assistance on a regular basis may help you get money more easily. Members of Your Team Your team may be made up of people from both inside and outside your company. The insiders may be part of your salaried management staff, while the number of outside advisers is largely a function of cost. When selecting advisers, you should be aware of their various professional designations, such as, certified public accountant and certified financial planner, as well as the scope of their expertise. Inside Team—Key Full-Time Employees Like any sports team, you need your basic players out on the field at all times. These are the people who know what needs to be done and do their jobs well. For example, budgets need to be prepared by those who know how ...continued on next page.
RISING INTEREST RATES:
The Downside of Economic Recovery
Over the last several years, investors have grown accustomed to historically low interest rates. Ever since the Federal Reserve Board’s target fed funds rate—the rate at which banks lend to one another—hit a high above 19% in mid-1981, the long-term direction of rates has been downward. In the last decade, the Fed’s data* shows the target rate has never been much higher than 6%. And since December 2008, the Fed has kept it at a previously unheard-of level between 0.25% and zero to try to ensure that credit would be available to promote economic recovery. Because bond prices typically rise when interest rates fall, that decline in yields has produced a bull market in bonds over the last decade. But what happens when the trend reverses? Even if they continue to remain relatively stable for a while, ultra-low interest rates have nowhere to go but up. When the economic recovery begins to show signs of strength, at some point the Federal Reserve Board will begin to raise the target rate again. When that happens, bond prices www.henssler.com

also will begin to reverse their long-term direction. Here are some factors to consider in anticipation of future rising interest rates. Bond Maturities: When Short is Sweet When interest rates rise, long-term bonds generally feel the impact the most. In an extended period of rising interest rates, bond buyers become reluctant to tie up their money for longer periods, because they foresee higher yields in the future. The later the bond’s maturity date, the greater the risk that its yield will eventually be superseded by that of newer bonds. As demand drops and yields increase to attract purchasers, prices fall. There are various ways to manage that impact. If you own individual bonds, you always have the option of holding them to maturity. In that case, you should suffer no loss of principal, unless the borrower defaults. ...continued on last page. 770-429-9166
the basics of investment analysis, and the mechanics of trading. Stockbrokers must pass the Series 7 licensing exam (six hours, approximately 250 questions) administered under the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA), which allows them to advise you, solicit your business, and execute transactions on your behalf. Most states also require the Series 63 exam. �Investment Adviser: An investment adviser is anyone who is paid to offer financial advice. How do You Build a Good Team?

to analyze sales and profits, and pricing will need to be determined by those who know the market. These decision-makers are your key employees and are generally hired on a full-time, salaried basis. Special Players—Outside Advisers Although your business may need a variety of advisers for different purposes, some typical advisers include the following: �Temporary, or for a Particular Purpose: Certain players (like the football kicker) are only needed at particular key moments. You may need a player to do only specific things (e.g., a C.P.A. to do the taxes each year). Perhaps you need to assemble a special team to handle a particular game (e.g., you are expanding or selling your business). Architects, attorneys, C.P.A.s, and brokers are some types of independent contractors that you can hire when your need occurs. �Associates and Colleagues: Pick the brains of your associates and colleagues. As a business owner, you have probably joined groups of others who have similar experiences (e.g., Rotary, Small Business Administration). Take advantage of these opportunities to get advice from these “unofficial” team players. �Accredited Accountant: An accredited accountant has passed an examination prepared by the Accreditation Council of Accountancy and Taxation. This is a national accounting accreditation board affiliated with the National Society of Public Accountants and the College for Financial Planning. Typically, accredited accountants specialize in small-business accounting. �Attorney: An attorney has obtained a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from an accredited law school, and has received a license to practice law from a state bar organization. Attorneys are required to take a broad range of courses in www.henssler.com
law school, typically, encompassing such areas as corporations, contracts, commercial law, and wills and trusts. Attorneys are particularly necessary when first establishing your business and when designing contracts and other legally enforceable documents. �CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional: A CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER (CFP®) professional has passed various courses in areas of investments and estate planning. The candidate must pass a comprehensive examination on these topics. Additionally, they are required to have three years of work experience and to participate in continuing education courses. �Certified Public Accountant: A Certified Public Accountant (C.P.A.) has passed the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) national examination, which tests an individual’s ability in accounting, auditing, business law, and taxation. A C.P.A. is licensed in the state where they practice. �Chartered Financial Consultant®: A Chartered Financial Consultant® (ChFC®) has passed a financial services curriculum, with emphasis on life insurance. A ChFC® must have three years of work experience and participate in continuing education courses. �Chartered Life Underwriter®: A Chartered Life Underwriter® (CLU®) is specifically trained in life insurance. They must have three years of work experience and participate in continuing education courses. �Personal Financial Specialist: A personal financial specialist (PFS) is a C.P.A., who concentrates on financial planning issues, and has met certain educational requirements, including continuing education courses. A test must be passed to obtain this designation. �Stockbroker: A stockbroker is trained in Dental Adviser
Choosing your professional advisers can be one of your most critical business decisions. How much advice you need, want, and can afford are some of the issues you should consider when forming a team. Only you can decide the best mix of advisers for your team. You may want to follow the below steps. Define Needs and Roles Break down your particular needs into component parts. Do you need a highly specialized sales force? How about a marketing department? Do you need legal advice? How about a financial and tax expert? Determining what you need will make it easier to conduct your search. You need to define each adviser’s role and communicate this information to all parties involved. Specify the conditions when one professional should defer to the judgment of another. You may want to appoint your quarterback—one adviser who coordinates the overall efforts of all parties to ensure that the “big picture” is kept in mind. Typically, the coordinator will be a financial planner with a strong tax background, or perhaps an accountant with a financial planning credential. This person is likely to be the one you’ll be dealing with frequently. Find the players Now that you understand the roles of the potential players on your team, it’s time to find the players. Credentials, experience, reputation, expertise, and cost are the most important factors in selecting an adviser. When composing a team, however, there are some additional considerations. A qualified player is one who is ready and able to join the team. Ability can only be determined by asking probing questions. Check Their Credentials •�Education: Be sure the candidate has the proper degree. •�Training: Be sure the candidate has an appropriate number of years of recent experience and the appropriate professional designations. ...continued on next page. 770-429-9166

Tax Breaks for
CHARITABLE ROLLOVERS
�An IRA withdrawal would normally result in taxable income that could increase tax on Social Security benefits. Using the charitable distribution technique avoids the problem.
Charitable-minded retirees have another chance to do a good tax deed with benefits. The 2010 Tax Relief Act retroactively reinstates the tax break for “charitable rollovers” to Jan. 1, 2010
�The distribution counts toward required minimum distribution (RMD) amounts. Thus, if you take the exact amount of the RMD and transfer it to charity, you can leave the IRA intact for another year.
and extends it through 2011. You still have a short window of opportunity to take advantage of this unique technique. How it works: If you’re age 70 1/2 or older, you can exclude from tax “qualified charitable distributions” of up to $100,000 that would otherwise be taxable as IRA distributions. A qualified charitable distribution isn’t reported as taxable income or claimed as a charitable deduction. Similarly, the distribution won’t increase your adjusted gross income (AGI) for other tax purposes. Here’s what you can accomplish tax-wise by making this move: �Deductions for charitable donations may ...continued from “Working with an Advisery Team”
•�Licenses: Be sure the candidate has all necessary licenses. •�References: Ask for and check on at least three business references. •�Proven Track Record: Ask for client or customer lists, if appropriate. Check Their Other Traits �Willingness to Work with Other Financial Specialists: To get different specialists to function as one unit, you need team players. Although your attorney is the expert on legal matters, they should be willing to discuss the legal ramifications of a decision with other professionals. This remains true even if another adviser prefers a different approach. Be up-front about the team approach; make sure that each adviser is aware of the names, business addresses, and telephone numbers of the other advisers. In fact, one way to build a successful team is to let one adviser refer you to other professionals with whom they have a professional relationship. �Ability to Communicate Ideas to You Cearly and Simply: It is vital for you to understand your advisers. Make sure that they can explain complex topics in simple language and are willing to provide such explanations until you feel comfortable with a particular decision.
also be restricted by other rules based on 30% and 50% of AGI. The IRA payout is exempt from these ceilings. �If a taxpayer has carryover charitable deductions from the prior year, he or she may receive the full benefit of the deductions this year. Otherwise, the regular charitable limits are applied before the carryover is allowed. �The charitable distribution is never realized as taxable income. This can lower your AGI for the deduction floors Set any ground rules before you hire an adviser, and make sure that they know just what you expect. �Personal Accessibility: If your accountant is too busy to take your phone calls or pay attention to the other advisers, they are probably not the best choice for your team. In terms of personality, you’ll want to deal with people with whom you feel comfortable. �Your Own “Gut Feelings”: Your own instincts play a part in your decision. Do you like the candidate? Will the candidate be a good fit? These questions can really only be answered by you. Huddle Now that the team is assembled, the game plan should be fully understood by each player. Make sure your goals and any ground rules are clear. You should have occasional group meetings to review progress toward your financial goals and to discuss major events that have impacted your overall plan. What’s the Downside? Commissions paid to business brokers, merger and acquisition specialists, investment bankers, and other experts can be expensive. However, the old adage remains true: You get what you pay for.
�This tax provision might also benefit taxpayers, who claim the standard deduction. It is the equivalent of taking a tax deduction as an itemizer. Note that the tax break for charitable distributions applies to Roth IRAs as well as traditional IRAs. Roth IRA distributions to individuals who are over age 59½, are usually tax-free. However, a portion of a distribution may be taxable for a Roth in existence less than five years. Therefore, it is usually better to use a traditional IRA rather than a Roth for this purpose. The tax break for charitable rollovers is scheduled to expire after 2011. If this technique interests you, contact your Tax Consultant. Retaining One Adviser Cash flow is often a problem for startup businesses. For these businesses, the only affordable option may be to hire one experienced business financial planner to provide a wide range of advice, and plan to employ an attorney and an accountant only when they are absolutely necessary. For growing businesses and liquid start-ups, the wisest course is to work with a team of advisers, with each adviser serving as an expert in his or her own area. In this way, you can be sure of receiving the most up-to-date strategies and the most legally accurate methods. Furthermore, by employing the team approach, financial decisions should be made with the “big picture” or overview in mind. In other words, advice will be coordinated among the professionals to ensure that only the best business decisions are made.

My Child’s Q&A IsCollege Scholarship Taxable?

The scholarship is also taxable if it is awarded as ...continued from “Rising Interest Rates”
Bond investments also can be laddered. This involves buying a portfolio of bonds with varying maturities; for example, a five-bond portfolio might be structured so that one of the five matures each year for the next five years. As each bond matures, it can be reinvested in an instrument that carries a higher yield. Laddering also can be used with certificates of deposit (CDs). If you own a bond fund, check the average maturity of the fund’s holdings, or the fund’s average duration. This takes into account the value of interest payments and will generally be shorter than the average maturity. The longer a fund’s duration, the more sensitive it may be to interest rate changes. Rising Rates and Other Assets Higher interest rates often are an attempt to prevent rising prices. When prices go up, purchasing power goes down, including the purchasing power of a bond’s fixed
payment for teaching, research or some other required service. With most scholarships, recipients can decide how to apply the funds. While your first instinct may be to apply it to tuition, fees, or books, thus making it tax free, this choice may impact your ability to claim the Lifetime Learning or the American Opportunity (formerly Hope) tax credits. These credits are based on the amount of tuition and fees paid. Therefore, if tuition and fees are paid in-part or in-full by a scholarship, you personally will have paid less when calculating your credit. Tax credits generally reduce your taxes dollar for dollar, so this could be a substantial savings. This scenario has the most impact on your ability to claim the Lifetime Learning credit, calculated as 20% of the first $10,000 of tuition and fees up to $2,000. For example, if you receive a large scholarship and apply it to these expenses, you may be left with less than $10,000 in eligible tuition and fees to count toward the credit. The American Opportunity credit is calculated differently—100% of the first $2,000 of tuition and fees, plus 25% of the next $2,000 of such expenses, up to $2,500. You can only take interest payments. That can make bonds less attractive to buyers. However, not all investments are hurt by higher prices. For example, commodities, such as oil and wheat, typically do well in inflationary periods. In fact, increases in commodity prices are often what trigger a bout of inflation. If you’re primarily interested in the overall value of your portfolio rather than a regular income stream, your financial professional can help you explore whether you should consider diversifying into asset classes that tend to benefit from inflation and that might help counteract the potential impact of falling bond prices. Though bonds are affected most directly, equities aren’t necessarily immune to rate increases. Though many companies borrowed money in recent years to take advantage of low rates and postpone the need to issue bonds for some time, those that haven’t may see their borrowing costs increase, which could affect their bottom lines. Even those that squirreled away cash could be hit, when they return to the bond markets eventually.
one of these credits in a given year for the same student. Therefore, if you have multiple students in college, you may want to weigh your options with a tax adviser. Additionally, both credits have different income phase-out levels. It is advisable to discuss your specific situation with a tax expert. If the scholarship has no restrictions on how it can be applied, and you fall within the income limits to take the credits, consider calculating tax projections to determine your best option. First, try applying the scholarship to tuition, and then reduce the amount of eligible tuition that can be used to calculate the tax credits. Second, try applying the scholarship to room and board, paying income tax on the scholarship, but allowing all tuition to be counted when calculating the credits. Calculating credits and determining how best to apply a scholarship can be difficult, even if you have a relatively simple tax return. However, the savings from taking advantage of federal tax credits—up to $2,500 in some cases—may make it worth your time to talk to your tax expert. A C.P.A. can help you and your family look at the different scenarios and make suggestions to save you money during your child’s college years. Also, if interest rates rise to a level that’s competitive with the return on stocks, that could reduce investor demand for equities. Higher Rates Aren’t All Bad News For those who’ve been diligent about saving, or who have kept a substantial portion of their investments in cash, higher rates could be a boon. Savings accounts, CDs, and money market funds are all likely to do better at providing income than they have in recent years. The downside, of course, is that if higher rates are accompanied by inflation, such cash alternatives might not keep pace with rising prices. And bear in mind, a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to lose money investing in a money market fund.
