<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">A
smile is more attractive with perfectly-lined teeth. Those pearly
white incisors are like precious jewels that light up the face. It’s the first
body part that grabs public attention. It also says a lot about the person's
genes, health and cleanliness habits.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 40.3pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Some people are
fortunate enough to be born with beautiful set of teeth. The not so lucky ones
would have to endure several trips to the dentist- if they happen to be brave
enough.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 21.9pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Let’s face it, several
people still cringe at the mere thought of getting a dental procedure.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 23.05pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.95pt;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Center (GAOC), this is expected.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 6.35pt; mso-line-height-alt: 8.05pt;">
<i><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Dr. Steve Mark Gan, President and CEO, GAOC<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 23.05pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">In the past, dentists
did pay close attention to how their clinics look or how they are perceived by
the public. “If they have a clinic, they just have a sign outside, maybe post
their clinic hours and then inside they have a dental chair and maybe a clerk.
That's it, no lifestyle elements. That's why people are scared to go to the
dentist. "<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 22.45pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">The no-to-glamorous image
of dentists concerned the young doctor. Rather than conform to existing mold
Dr. Gan accepted the challenge to take a different route. "My goal was to
really change the dentistry landscape in the Philippines. I want to remove the
scary factor. It should be glamorous more lifestyle oriented."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">While
taking his residency in the U.S., Dr. Gan learned the latest technology in
dental medicine. He returned to Manila and opened a small dental clinic in
Binondo, Manila. Soon after his list of clientele grew, he founded the Gan
Advanced Osseointegration Center or GAOC in 2001, the one-stop dental
center offers the most advanced technology in oral diagnostic and surgical
procedures.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 15.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Apart from the regular
dental procedure GAOC specialized in implants or osseointegration, the process
in which the bone cells are attached to the titanium surface which locks the
dental implant to the jaw bone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 10.35pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">The concept was
relatively unheard of in the Philippines back in 2001. Today apart from general
dentistry his clinic is fast becoming known for the wonders of dental
aesthetics and implants, more importantly for being the "Dentist of the
Stars". </span><i style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">GAOC’s surgery team with Dr. Steve Mark Gan, at

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-line-height-alt: 13.8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">"When
I decided to specialize in dental implants people told me ' are you crazy'? <i>Sino
ang magpapa implant dito</i>," he relates.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 22.45pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Dental implant surgery
replaces missing or damaged teeth with artificial teeth that look and feel like
the real ones. It replaces tooth roots with metal, screw-like posts.
It’s the perfect alternative for dentures that run the risk of falling off.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 23.05pt; mso-line-height-alt: 13.8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Dr. Gan cites the case
of singer comedian Allan K, who was using dentures for the long time. Once time
while hosting on TV, he was laughing so hard his dentures fell off.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 23.05pt; mso-line-height-alt: 13.8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Dr. Gan offered to
change his dentures to implants "Now he is so happy. He can eat anything
he can chew, he can talk and talk without fear that of falling dentures,"
he said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 22.45pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">The comedian was so
happy that he refused to go back to his old dentures, even when Dr. Gan told
him that he needed to do some revisions on his implant. "You know what he
said? you are not going to touch my teeth. I refuse to go back to dentures”.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 21.3pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Dr. Gan believes that
having good teeth builds confidence. "It is as important as any part of
the body. First, you use it for eating. How can you swallow your food if you
don't chew it well? Second, it builds confidence. Without nice teeth, how can you
smile? How can How can you talk confidently? How can you socialize? “he said.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 22.45pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Thanks to
osseointegration or dental implants, a good number of patients, including
famous personalities, who used to feel so insecure because of bad teeth, are
now flashing confident smiles. According to the doctor, the procedure does not
hurt, "when done properly" that is why it is important that patients
only go to "qualified" dentists.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 22.45pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 23.6pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.95pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Dr. Gan is all to launch the newest and the
fourth GAOC at St. Luke's Global City. The new<o:p></o:p></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt; text-align: justify;">clinic
is a homecoming of sorts since Dr. Gan first started his dental group practice
with a clinic in St. Luke's Quezon City. The new GAOC, located at the 9th floor
of the Medical Arts Building is a serene and relaxing abode, giving a quiet
sense of relaxation to all those who enter the room. The mint blue color
scheme, fine lines and the use of natural light closely resembles a spa,
encouraging dental patients to relax and feel at home.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 23.6pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.55pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Although it is located
inside the country's top hospital. GAOC has its own consultation room, dental
laboratory, and treatment rooms. And just like all the GAOC branches, patients
can expect the most advanced, technologically superior equipment and service.
And to keep up with the latest trends, the center regularly sends their
dentists abroad for training.</span><i style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">Treatment Room - GAOC St. Luke’s Global City</span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 15.55pt; mso-line-height-alt: 15.0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16pt;">With the new venture Dr.
Gan would like to focus more on hospital-based dentistry. Aside from
making his patients look more beautiful and confident, Dr. Gan wishes to work
with patients with more serious dental problems.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

in the world today, we are seeing a growing demand for homes, and with this
comes the need to outfit these homes with appliances that will both ease the
burden of housework for everyone and be reliable enough to last for years.

products to the Philippine market for years. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

its own line of appliances here in the Philippines on September 8, 2014. And
that means a number of things for homeowners and partner retailers alike. The
first is that, while the refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, air
conditioners, and other appliances sold by mabe will have the same high quality
and top-of-the-line features as their GE-labeled counterparts at a competitive
price. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Watsons Generics’ wide range of medicines and supplements, the most essential
health needs of the entire family can be met. Pantry stocking is made easy and
affordable with various vitamins, pain relief, cough and cold medicines to aid
the recovery of a sick loved one. Super Moms are equipped to fight off common
bacteria with the roster of effective and affordable antibiotics. The younger
generation will be able to find supplements like Vitamin B that will suit their
fast-paced lifestyle. Young women can also purchase affordable beauty ingestives
such as collagen or glutathione, giving them the opportunity to be able to
focus on other things such as a dream vacation. The elderly can also benefit
from Watsons Generics’ wide portfolio of maintenance medicines to help manage
their diabetes, hypertension or high blood. The lolo of the family, who
previously would not regularly take his maintenance medicines due to high
costs, can now make the switch to affordable generics as he is now assured of
its quality.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

recognize that each family will have specific needs when it comes to their
health. However, with the rising cost of not just medicines but all
commodities, families may have difficulty meeting each specific need. With the
launch of Watsons Generics, we aim to help families by giving them more healthcare

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">The popularity of vertical living has paved the way for a booming
property industry, giving rise to numerous condominiums that offer the same
comforts. But </span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";">whether you live in a condo or
house and lot, </span><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">the importance of maintaining a clean home for a
healthy family is of utmost importance to Avida. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">“We in Avida believe that cleanliness is crucial to those seeking to set
off to a great start with their new beginnings in life, largely due to our
belief that starting out in a clean home will create healthy and happy
families,” said Tess Tatco, Head of Avida Corporate Marketing. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";">“Unilever Homecare is pleased
to partner with Avida in its endeavor because we believe in making life’s new
beginnings healthy and clean especially when it concerns families </span><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">and communities</span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";">,”
said Dennis Chua, Domex and Cif brand manager.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">Avida and Unilever’s globally trusted home cleaners DOMEX and CIF share
this cause, and are working hand-in-hand to promote healthy living and proper
hygiene among Avida homeowners by raising awareness on the use of household
cleaning products and encourage developing a habit of keeping homes clean
within Avida communities.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

healthy living through programs on proper cleaning and sanitation.</span><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;"> In partnership with the communities’ respective homeowners
associations/Condo Corp. and Avida Customer Care Unit headed by Nancy
Delegencia, Unilever will conduct a series of educational talks that will initially
benefit more than 6,000 Avida homeowners
in Bonifacio Global City, Quezon City, Muntinlupa, Parañaque, Cavite, NUVALI.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

such as Domex multipurpose cleaner, Domex toilet bowl cleaner, and everyday
household cleaning product. Cif will also be given out to new condominium and
house and lot homeowners upon the turnover of their units.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";">The use of right cleaning
products</span><span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;"> complements Avida promoting healthy living through
proper ventilation, </span><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";">free-flowing
air and sunlight present in all Avida units. Avida and Unilever thru Domex and
Cif are together in this venture for clean and healthy homes, for happier

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">This partnership is aligned with the Domex 1 Million Clean Toilets
campaign, which aims to raise awareness on proper toilet sanitation and provide
access to basic sanitation for the less fortunate. This falls under the Unilever
Sustainable Living Plan that aims to help improve the health and well-being of
more than a billion people. This is in an effort to possibly see a reduction in
the number of cases of diarrhea, reported to be the second leading cause of
death among children below 5 years old in the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Philippines</st1:place></st1:country-region>. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-PH" style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"; mso-ansi-language: EN-PH;">So far, the movement has been continuously receiving pledges and it
hopes to achieve one million clean toilets, in time for World Toilet Day in
November.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
