Matthew Kaufman, MD, FACS Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery
At the Plastic Surgery Center in Shrewsbury, Dr. Matthew Kaufman offers life-changing transformations that not only increase patients’ confidence, but also enhance their well-being. He is one of a handful of surgeons skilled in repairing large septal perforations and has pioneered phrenic nerve reconstruction to treat paralysis of the diaphragm (the primary muscle involved in breathing). He began performing this procedure in 2007 and to date has done more than 500 of these surgeries on people who travel to see him from all over the world.
“It is very rewarding to develop a procedure that can help thousands of people suffering from a condition that previously often went untreated and, based on its effectiveness, witness it become a standard treatment option for a debilitating condition.” Peripheral Nerve Surgery • Facelift • Blepharoplasty • Rhinoplasty • Breast Augmentation • Breast Reduction • Abdominoplasty • Liposuction • Reconstructive Surgery 535 Sycamore Avenue | Shrewsbury, NJ 07702 | 732-741-0970 www.LookNatural.com | www.AdvancedReconstruction.com

In 2010, the practice was the first in New Jersey to implement intraoral scanners. Now, it’s introduced yet another tool to benefit patients: in-office 3D printers. This tool allows Dr. Caggiano to make and print any appliance or retainer needed. When not in the office, Dr. Caggiano can be found teaching orthodontics to general-practice residents at Morristown Memorial Hospital, attending national study clubs and participating in monthly continuing-education courses to help him stay on the cutting-edge of his field. Earlier this year, he authored a new book, A Parent’s Guide to Understanding Orthodontics: How to Confidently Choose the Best Orthodontist for Your Family, which details all you need to know about orthodontics.

She is a Faculty Club Member at Spear Education in Scottsdale, Arizona and participates in multiple study clubs in which dentists share their knowledge about treating complex cases. Recently, Dr. Ference has focused on the relationship between sleep apnea and dentistry, designing appliances to help patients breathe better while sleeping. These appliances can decrease snoring and lead to a more restful sleep for both patients and their partners, and can also improve overall health. What Dr. Ference finds the most rewarding is working in partnership with oral surgeons to place implant-supported full-arch restorations in one day. “This can be life changing for some people. It is a great example of the evolution of what is available in dentistry today,” she says. Patients who visit Dr. Ference at Clifton Dental Arts will find a variety of services available, including CEREC single-visit ceramic crowns and restoration of implants.

“While it’s important for dentists to listen to patients to understand what’s desired, it’s equally crucial for patients to listen to their dentists so they understand what options are being suggested,” he says. “This attention to detail creates an appealing smile and great results.”
COUNTY: Burlington AREA OF PRACTICE: General Dentistry
By following this rule, Dr. Stiles changes patients’ lives by creating the smile of their dreams. It’s what pushes him to provide top services at each appointment. His Medford-based practice is outfitted with cutting-edge technologies, including a CEREC machine, the latest 3D innovation that provides single-visit crowns, inlays and onlays. “This one-appointment CEREC crown means no messy impressions, no temporary crown, no second injections and less time in the dental chair,” he says. To stay abreast of emerging technologies, Dr. Stiles has completed more than a thousand hours of continuing-education courses at some of the country’s most prestigious institutions, such as the Spear Education, Dawson Academy and American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Dr. Stiles says, “We want you to be confident knowing that we are a team of highly trained and skilled clinicians. We pride ourselves on providing the care you need to keep your smile healthy.”

A Dose of ENERGY THE DREARY, COLD WEATHER OF WINTER CAN
instantly zap your energy away. This season, don’t overdose
on coffee and other caffeinated beverages to get your mood up and running. Instead, introduce natural energy boosters into your daily routine. Here are tips to keep you energized and ready-to-go all winter long.
By Nicole Fonzino
CUT OUT COFFEE Many people kickstart their day with a cup of coffee. However, as much as coffee can energize you, too
much of it also can cause your energy levels to spike and then plummet, causing what is known as a
caffeine crash. Try cutting back on coffee in the new year and replace your afternoon cup of joe with tea instead.
Tea also contains caffeine, giving you that mid-
day boost you desire, but in lower amounts that
won’t overwhelm you. According to Healthline.com, “Tea may be a suitable alternative for those who are
sensitive to the high amounts of caffeine in coffee. Due to the L-theanine [an amino acid found in tea leaves]
and its effect on alpha waves in the brain, it may also be a better choice than coffee for those who need to concentrate for long periods.”
Tea has the added benefit of antioxidants, with
green tea packing the most. There’s an insane variety of teas out there, so try a few to see which ones you enjoy most and work best for you.

RISE AND SHINE “The early bird catches the worm!” You may think that
waking up sooner will reduce your energy levels, but once you get used to the early alarm going off, you may find
it helps start your day. First, you’ll have more time to get
ready and organized. Having to rush out the door can make you feel stressed even before your day begins.
Create a daily morning routine for yourself such as
waking up, reading the newspaper or a book and enjoying a
healthy breakfast. When you leave for work, you’ll feel calm and be in a more positive frame of mind.
GET A WORKOUT IN Stress is one of the body’s worst enemies. To combat it,
make time for exercise. Going to the gym or taking a long
walk will increase your energy while keeping daily stress at bay.
According to Harvard Health Publishing, exercising
helps “release epinephrine and norepinephrine, stress hormones that in modest amounts can make you feel energized.”
Of course exercising also boosts overall health. A win-
win any way you look at it.
SAY GOODBYE TO JUNK FOOD Eating healthy is a habit everyone should get on board with, but especially if you want to boost your energy levels. The
phrase “Food is fuel” is true. The quality of the food you eat will fuel—or hinder—you throughout your day.
Eating well-balanced meals satisfies your hunger and
provides calories for you to excel at whatever you have
planned. When preparing meals, follow the food pyramid
to create an ideal meal. Typically, a protein (such as grilled
chicken), grain and vegetable will fulfill your caloric intake while holding you over until your next meal.
A correlary is to curb your junk-food intake. The
processed ingredients can leave you feeling lethargic. If
you’re looking to snack on something, try replacing chips with fruits, vegetables or nuts. Different healthful foods
affect your mind and body in different positive ways. The benefits are endless!

Smile Yourself Younger By Sara Brisolla
AS TIME GOES ON, YOUR SMILE AGES LIKE THE rest of your body. Stains, chips and uneven teeth
can cause self-esteem issues. Depending on your
budget, you can spend as little as a few dollars or
thousands of dollars to fix your smile and make it appear younger. Here are a few ways to improve your smile and make you feel your best!
BUDGET: UNDER $10 One of the cheapest and easiest ways to brighten
your smile is to use whitening toothpaste. It helps
remove surface stains with mild abrasives. Selecting the right toothbrush also is essential in removing plaque and debris. Remember to replace your
toothbrush every three months or when it becomes worn. You should also check with your dentist
before incorporating new items into your dental routine.

With in-office whitening, the product is applied directly
to the teeth and can be used in combination with a special light, heat or a laser. Results are seen in one appointment,
but for dramatic results several appointments are needed. Another way to improve your smile is dental bonding,

If you want straighter teeth but are unsure about having
wires on them for appearance reasons, Invisalign is more aesthetically pleasing. The user wears a series of clear,
removable aligners that gradually straighten teeth. This
option is for those who want the effects of an orthodontic treatment without having a mouth full of metal.
With Invisalign, you can remove the trays to eat, drink,
brush or floss, but you must also be disciplined about keeping your trays in and staying on track with your
treatment. Unlike traditional braces, there are no restrictions on what you can eat. The trays also are more comfortable
because they are made of smooth plastic that doesn’t poke or chafe gums. Typical treatment is about a year vs. two years for traditional braces.

Keeping Up With The Jetsons By Simon Murray
TWENTIETH-CENTURY FUTURISTS AND SCIENCE-FICTION WRITERS ENVISIONED A FUTURE WHERE ANDROIDS mine materials on distant moons, flying cars zip above freeways and typewriters are commanded by voice. Predictions like that are funny. While the typewriter has marched into antiquity, humankind is getting more and more comfortable with the idea of talking to inanimate objects. And why not?
“Smart home” technology—a catch-all term for automating everyday objects around the house—is proliferating by leaps
and bounds, endowing everything from clocks, speakers, lights, doorbells, cameras, window blinds, hot-water heaters and
appliances with the gift of understanding gab. It’s what modernists are calling the Internet of Things. Think of it as a utopian not-so-distant future where objects react to our prompts: a thermostat raises the heat in the house after your winter morning jog or a speaker plays smooth jazz for you after a long day.
So we didn’t get flying cars. Instead, we got Alexa, Siri and a host of smart helpers making everyday life easier. You know
what? Sounds like a win to me.
NEST There’s minimalist design, and then there’s Nest. This device features little more than a round gauge, which flashes orange or blue when heating up or cooling down the home. The third generation of the Nest Learning Thermostat is easy to install and program but doesn’t run cheap ($250). The upside is what you get in return: built-in sensors that monitor humidity, temperature, light and movement. Unlike typical thermostats, the Nest tracks every time you adjust the temperature or schedule and learns your preferences after just a week of observation. Plus, it keeps energy costs low by changing the temperature when your home is empty (displaying a green leaf icon when activated) like a benevolent, environmentally conscious Hal 9000. Pairing it with the Nest Protect smoke detector or Nest security cameras (sold separately) adds another dimension of safety.

SAMSUNG FAMILY HUB This might be the year that we start referring to the kitchen as the family hub. Samsung has revolutionized the refrigerator, combining everything you want in a smart fridge into one handsome, fingerprint-resistant black stainless steel case. A tablet allows you to keep track of groceries; view shopping lists and recipes; order food with GrubHub, Instacart or Amazon Dash; stream music; connect to other devices; and so much more. Hands full? Bixby is there to help: reading out recipes step by step and taking dictation. You can choose from three models: 4-door flex, 4-door French and 3-door French, each with a bevy of options (starting at $2,800). The kitchen will never be the same.
WYND Created by a former aerospace engineer, Wynd ($200) is a smart, portable air purifier that filters out particulates, allergens, smoke and pollution from your personal space. The size of a water bottle, it monitors your environment and cleans as needed. The best part might be its weight: coming in at under a pound, its infinitely portable—making it the perfect device to accompany you to the office, hotels, cars or public transportation. Simply pair it with your phone or smartwatch, and its air-quality tracker will alert you when the air around you becomes unhealthy.
AMAZON ECHO You know her name. Maybe you’ve even spoken to her. Amazon’s Echo comes complete with Alexa, a virtual assistant who can, with a simple audio command, browse the Internet, make phone calls and control smart-home devices. One of the most popular smart speakers on the market today is the new Echo Plus, a second-generation device with even more functions. Both models are relatively cheap, too. The new Echo costs around $100 for a cloth-covered model or $120 for a model with a finish. The Echo Plus comes in at around $150.
