Concrete Driveways: What you should know about replacing your concrete driveway.
BY MACY GOODNIGHT
J
uly 2021: Home improvement is currently trending, and honestly, never goes out of style. However, for obvious reasons, more and more people are increasing their investment of time and money
into their sanctuaries, whether for updates, replacements or additions. The first impression of any home is the driveway that leads to the house itself. Add that to the top of the list when making your next improvement investment. One of the most underappreciated parts of a home may very well be the driveway. Incidentally, most people won’t notice how important this facet really is, until it’s in need of repair. If your driveway is cracked, chipped, stained, or generally in need of renewal, LCI Concrete is your solution. Owner, Kalan Paul, has been in business helping homeowners in Tulsa and surrounding areas alleviate their driveway woes for over 16 years.

Functionality is a priority, as physical hazards such as holes or cracks can wreak havoc on a vehicle and its wheels and tires. Driveway replacement can add to the value of the home and is a good investment. “I don’t think anyone would lose money replacing a driveway,” Kalan said. “It’s amazing what it can do for the look of a home.” LCI takes great pride in the speed at which they are able to complete their work. Removing and replacing 50,000 lbs and beyond of material requires a great deal of effort! Most homeowners appreciate being able to utilize their driveway as quickly as possible, and they consider this a top priority. “We lead the way as a well-oiled machine,” said Kalan. “In most cases, we show up early, work hard, remove and replace driveways within one day!” Most projects can be completed in one to two days. Their business philosophy focuses on three major points: customer satisfaction, quality workmanship and minimizing a homeowner’s downtime.

Who Makes the Best Cabinets for the Money? It pays to remember Premium Cabinets of Tulsa during your kitchen remodeling process. BY MACY GOODNIGHT
J
uly 2021: Home is where the heart is, and the kitchen is the heart of the home. Just as food nurtures the mind, body and soul… the kitchen is the place where meals are prepared with love, on-the-go and for snack time. People gather there during parties and gatherings for conversation, taste tests and memorymaking. For all these reasons your kitchen cabinets are one of the most important choices when renovating. Your cabinetry should provide the perfect balance of function, style and inspiration. Established in 2004, Premium Cabinets of Tulsa has built a strong
reputation for providing their customers with high quality cabinetry while maintaining affordability. Premium Cabinets of Tulsa is locally owned and family-operated. “My dad and I started the company. Now it’s a whole new generation with me, my wife and kids,” said Austin Gullic. You’ll enjoy dozens of choices of wood cabinetry styles and colors for kitchens and bathrooms. Design assistance is also provided. The importance of design and planning cannot be underestimated. It is key to making your space user-friendly for you and your family. They will help you with all the details including the ones sometimes overlooked. “As my family has grown, so has my

grasp on optimizing family spaces. I have training and understanding of kitchens, and my family has given me an even greater appreciation for the heart of the home.” Premium Cabinets of Tulsa enables clients to preview their visions using a 3D tour. From start to finish, a project can be completed within two to three months. As their cabinets are completely finished before installation, time spent without use of the space is minimal, and there are no dangerous fumes. Appointments for consultations are preferred, so that each client receives one-on-one personal attention. Many other cabinetry businesses were unable to weather the storm of the past year, but Premium Cabinets of Tulsa survived successfully, with

Austin attributes their growth to the quality they provide. “Our reviews and our reputation are what made us so successful,” he said. “We are really grateful for the respect of our clients and their referrals; and we are truly blessed and proud of what we’ve been able to create and continue to grow.” Premium Cabinets of Tulsa’s designs can be an enhancement not only in kitchen and bath but can extend to
built-ins for entertainment centers and around fireplaces, or storage in game rooms, and even wine cabinets. There are endless possibilities to increase the organizational flow within a home. One of the things that Austin loves the most about his work, is sitting with his clients and getting into the needs and wishes at the heart of the design. “I live by an attitude of gratitude,” he said. “I, and my staff,
love making each client feel special. We think it’s cool to turn someone’s dreams and ideas into reality.” For more information on their design and cabinetry services, visit their website at www. premiumcabinets.com/tulsa or call for an appointment at (918) 549-5553.

uly 2021: It is said that home is where the heart is, but finding the house of your dreams, and following through the stressful process of buying, takes working with a real estate agent that genuinely has the heart for it. Tonya Jarvis isn’t just in the real estate industry, she’s in the business of building friendships. Since 2016, she has strived to provide her clients with a higher level of service as an awardwinning, RE/MAX REALTOR that truly cares about the needs and wishes of those she serves. It is her commitment to her own family and values that compels her and also separates her from others in her field. “I went into this business with a helpful spirit, and I wanted to build friendships with these people who were trusting me with one of the biggest steps they’re going to make for their family,”
so that there is nothing unexpected.” Through her work, Tonya found that she had a genuine passion for helping other people. “My success in real estate has allowed me to share with others and to give back in a way I wasn’t able to do before,” she said. “I take pride in being able to do things outside of that, whatever that looks like; whether buying books, or contributing to Big Brothers and Big Sisters.” One of her passion projects is an annual blood drive held in the RE/MAX office, with the third one coming up in September of this year. In December of last year, Tonya
“I went into this business with a helpful spirit, and I wanted to build friendships with these people who were trusting me with one of the biggest steps they’re going to make for their family.” she said. “That level of trust and transparency, in the beginning, is super critical.” With so many moving parts to buying a home, a REALTOR is there to help navigate the journey and maneuver through each step and ensure that all of the difficult details come together seamlessly. “My motto is start to close with TJ,” said Tonya. “I like to spend as much time as possible with my buyers to explain the process, the positives and the negatives that can be expected,

According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), all chimneys should be cleaned at least once every year. Keeping your chimney clean helps prevent home fires—it’s as simple as that. When you burn a fire in your fireplace, two things happen: Chimney soot builds up, as well as creosote, which is a heavy, thick, oily residue similar to tar that’s a byproduct of burning wood. While soot is more easily removable, creosote sticks to the chimney lining, which can be dangerous because it’s extremely flammable.

According to the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA), some of the new gas fireplaces still recommend or require an annual chimney cleaning. There will not be any soot or creosote in the chimney since you are not burning wood, but you may find bird nests that need to be removed, along with ensure firewalls are able to contain combustion/fire and safely exhaust them from the home, check for damaged or cracked chimney crown and mortar joints, and moisture problems.

steoporosis can be as deadly as heart disease. In the 1980s, the disease was naturally considered a normal process of aging. As medicine evolved, it became evident that Osteoporosis was connected to fractures. Today, medicine shows that not everyone with Osteoporosis has low bone density and people can have ‘fragility fractures’ as a result of the disease’s progression. “There are thousands of doctors who do kyphoplasty in the U.S. and very few actually treat the underlying osteoporosis. As an interventional musculoskeletal radiologist, there are very few of us who actually focus on treating osteoporosis and not just fixing fractures. I was the first in Oklahoma to have a free standing clinic focused on treating osteoporosis, not just the fractures with kyphoplasty, but medically treating the underlying osteoporosis. There are probably less than 20 doctors around the country that I know that do this to the high degree that we do,” explained Dr. Webb. Though the majority of
36 |
Above: Dr. James Webb.
Osteoporosis patients are over 60, he has treated patients as young as 18, and many in their 30s. He is helping drive research for vertebral fractures. Dr. Webb is offering free bone density scans to qualified patients to improve access to care as well as raise awareness of the disease.
“I really wanted to offer free screening to all patients who needed it--to raise awareness of bone health and to give back to this community that has been so supportive of us.” “Most people hear the word ‘osteoporosis’ and they think of a ninety-year-old grandmother with a hip fracture. Unfortunately, problems with bone health can impact younger patients and it also affects men.” Webb said. “Like heart disease or a stroke,
VALUE NEWS BIXBY, JENKS & SAPULPA JULY 2021 WWW.VALUENEWS.COM
people think it can’t happen to them until it’s too late. Fractures from bad bone health are a common cause of misdiagnosed back pain. If you’re concerned about your bone health, or you have back pain that no one has been able to help, give us a call.” Interested participants should call the Dr. James Webb & Associates office at 918-260-9322 for a prescreening. Priority will be given to those who have fallen and broken a bone, have a family history of osteoporosis, or take certain medications proven to reduce bone density. Pre-screening is needed to make sure that the test is medically indicated as well as to avoid regulatory hurdles. “I really wanted to offer free screening to all patients who needed it--to raise awareness of bone health and to give back to this community that has been so supportive of us,” Webb says. “Unfortunately, government and insurance regulations actually won’t allow us to do that, so our focus is really for uninsured patients who need bone density testing”
Osteoporosis occurs when the body’s bones become weak from low bone density, low bone quality, or both. As a result, bones become weak and may break from a fall or, in serious cases, from something as slight as sneezing or minor bumps. Most often, osteoporosis is a silent killer until a fracture occurs. “There is hope for slowing down and even reversing the effects of bad bone health,” said Webb. “The key is to catch it as early as possible and then treat it medically to reduce the risk of future fractures.” Osteoporosis is often underdiagnosed. At least once a month he sees a patient who has been told they don’t have osteoporosis when in fact they do have the disease. One of the ways doctors screen is by using a DEXA bone density scan. This test does two things: Screens for risk in asymptomatic people; and
helps determine if a person’s bone density is low enough to be put on medication. Screening is good if you have a family history or any concern about Osteoporosis. Essentially, a bone density scan compares bone density to the bones of an average healthy young adult. The test results can help determine if you have osteoporosis, are at risk for it, and can be used to determine the overall risk for having a fracture. “Advanced CT scans and X-ray’s can miss half the fractures; and two-thirds of the unfound vertebral fractures heal before they receive medical treatment,” explained Dr. Webb. “A physical exam is the most technical way to detect a fracture. We treat the patient and not the imaging because we know that many fractures are painful for weeks before we can detect the collapse on imaging.” He specializes in innovative less invasive treatments to treat Osteoporosis and fractures before they become severe. He uses a variety of treatments including kyphoplasty, steroid injections, ablations and other pain-relieving procedures.
Left image: MRI showing acute fracture with fluid cleft. Middle image: picture during kyphoplasty with balloon in the fracture cleft.

Genant Six-Point Semi-Quantitative Analysis (SPSQA) measurements show between 45-55% height loss. (17mm compared to 31mm posterior wall height).
Dr. Webb – Kyphoplasty Expert in back pain relief, treating old and new injuries...focuses on finding the underlying cause of back pain in patients and providing targeted, minimally invasive treatment. Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that quickly repairs vertebral compression fractures (VCF) and restores structural integrity to broken vertebral bone. It is an outpatient procedure that uses a cavity creation device (usually a balloon) to create a space in the broken vertebra which is then filled with a special bone cement to stabilize the fracture and reduce pain. Dr. Webb is one of the most experienced physicians in the United States and has performed thousands of these procedures.

Left: Bone densitometry, also called dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, DEXA or DXA, uses a very small dose of ionizing radiation to produce pictures of the inside of the body (usually the lower (or lumbar) spine and hips) to measure bone loss. It is commonly used to diagnose osteoporosis, to assess an individual’s risk for developing osteoporotic fractures. DXA is simple, quick and noninvasive. It’s also the most commonly used and the most standard method for diagnosing osteoporosis. WWW.VALUENEWS.COM JULY 2021 BIXBY, JENKS & SAPULPA VALUE NEWS

ABOUT OSTEOPOROSIS
•
Osteoporosis is a disease of the bone. •
Osteoporosis is often called a “silent disease” because you cannot feel your bones getting weaker. • You may not even know you have osteoporosis until after you break a bone. Osteoporosis is common. • Approximately 10 million Americans have osteoporosis and another 44 million have low bone density, placing them at increased risk. • This means that half of all adults age 50 and 38 |

For over one and half years, Dwain suffered from severe chest and shoulder pain. He had been an athlete most of his life and lived the rough and tumble lifestyle that most athletes endure. “I felt like I was having a heart attack all of the time and was experiencing great pain between my shoulder blades,” he explains, “my doctor ran tests and determined that I have always had a very healthy heart and my heart health was not causing my pain.” Following further examination, his doctor diagnosed him with osteoporosis and one broken vertebra.

The disease is responsible for an estimated 2 million broken bones per year, yet nearly 80 percent of older Americans who suffer bone breaks are not tested or treated for osteoporosis. One in two women and up to one in four men over age 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis. People with osteoporosis can break a bone from a minor fall, or in serious cases, even from simple actions like sneezing or bumping into furniture. Osteoporosis is serious, even deadly. A woman’s risk of fracture is equal to her combined risk of breast, uterine and ovarian cancer. A man is more likely to break a bone due to

I had terrible back pain and had trouble walking and sleeping, I have a demanding job and had to have Above: Terrilyn relief from the pain. Dr. Webb was very compassionate and he actually listened to me…Really his whole office was great and they all listened to me. He was able to stop the low back pain, repaired my fractures. Now I can do what I want and go anywhere I want. I really don’t believe that I would be able to walk now if it weren’t for Dr. Webb. I see him now for maintenance. I have five grandkids that I can keep up with and it’s wonderful….I am in high demand! I highly recommend Dr. Webb.

Today’s Science: Solutions for Back Pain What is Kyphoplasty? Does it Relieve Chronic Back Pain? Why are Vertebral Compression Fractures (VCF) important?
A vertebral compression fracture is often the first sign of osteoporosis, but they are usually missed by imaging. For example, 86% of VCFs are missed on advanced CT. VCFs are also associated with high rates of death if left untreated. A recent analysis of the entire Medicare data set showed that for patients with a VCF, only 15% will survive 10 years. However, the same analysis showed that kyphoplasty more than doubles the survival rate of these patients.
What is Kyphoplasty?
• • • •
Kyphoplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that quickly repairs vertebral compression fractures (VCF) and restores structural integrity to broken vertebral bone. Kyphoplasty is an outpatient procedure that uses a cavity creation device (usually a balloon) to create a space in the broken vertebra which is then filled with a special bone cement to stabilize the fracture and reduce pain.
How does Kyphoplasty help?
The goal of kyphoplasty is to restore the broken vertebra to a more normal height and to fix the pain caused by the fracture. When a vertebral fracture occurs, it most commonly presents as an acute worsening of chronic lower back pain. Many times the patient’s chronic back pain is getting worse, but it’s actually due to a recent fracture. Many of our patients experience immediate pain relief following kyphoplasty. It can help relieve pain by stabilizing the fracture. Improved mobility results because of decreased pain levels.
What happens during the Kyphoplasty procedure?
•
• Needle Placement - Under IV sedation and using x-ray guidance, a
pencil-sized needle is placed through a small (quarter-inch) incision and a working channel is made in the fractured vertebral body. Cavity Created – A balloon is generally used to create a space and to reduce the fracture to more anatomic alignment. Devices Removed – The balloon is deflated, leaving a cavity in the vertebral body. Fracture Stabilized – The cavity is filled with bone cement to stabilize the fracture. Once filled, the incision is closed. End of Procedure – With the process completed, an internal cast is now in place. This stabilizes the vertebral body and provides rapid mobility and pain relief. The procedure takes about 30 minutes and has a short recovery time, usually a couple of days for most patients.
After Kyphoplasty
Patients treated with balloon kyphoplasty have significantly better outcomes in terms of pain reduction, quality of life, function and mobility both initially at one month, and throughout the months and years after treatment. 94% have complete or significant pain reduction and 67% have improved mobility. While kyphoplasty is highly effective for improving mobility and decreasing pain in patients with spinal fractures, it does not treat the underlying osteoporosis itself. It’s important for your doctor to treat the underlying bone disease (osteoporosis) causing the fractures. This decreases the risk of future fractures and generally makes spinal fractures less frequent.
Kyphoplasty vs. Vertebroplasty
Kyphoplasty and vertebroplasty are both medical procedures designed to treat pain associated with vertebral compression fractures. The main difference is vertebroplasty does not create a cavity and there is higher likelihood of cement leakage. Kyphoplasty has a significantly lower complication rate compared to verteboplasty and more than doubles the 10-year survival rate in patients over 65.
Dr. Webb – Kyphoplasty Expert When it comes to kyphoplasty, Dr. Webb is one of the most experienced physicians in the US. Dr. Webb has performed thousands of kyphoplasty procedures and has the experience necessary to safely perform kyphoplasty. In fact, he also teaches other physicians how to safely and effectively perform the procedure. Here are a few facts about Dr. Webb’s kyphoplasty expertise: • He performed over 120 kyphoplasties during his training (fellowship). • Was one of the first physicians to perform kyphoplasty in Oklahoma. • Was a principal investigator in the EVOLVE trial,
