SAN JOSE — An important aspect of any building project is making sure things are done to code. The State of California has rigorous building code standards, both in regard to structural integrity and energy efficiency, so it requires careful diligence to stay in compliance with the law.
Due to the stringency of California’s building code, it’s easy for do-it-yourselfers to miss important details. For example, many homeowners do their own shopping for finish materials like faucets and light fixtures, but if they aren’t familiar with code requirements (especially those outlined in the California Green Building Standards Code), they may end up getting materials that aren’t code-compliant. This can result in an expensive mistake when the city inspector informs them that their new fixtures have to be replaced.
To avoid these kinds of issues, it’s important to partner with your contractor or designer to ensure code compliance at every level. By staying in line with building code requirements, you can ensure a smooth process and avoid costly mistakes.

 When it comes to a home remodeling project, one critical aspect is staying compliant with building code standards. To learn more, we're in San Jose with Annamarie DIAC of Best Construction, speaking on behalf of our Diamond Certified expert contributor, Sergio DIAC.

Video: The Benefits of Dental Implants



For those with missing or damaged teeth, modern restorative Dentistry can offer a variety of options. Today, we're in San raone with diamond certified expert contributor Dr. Alfred De La Cruz to talk about the benefits of dental implants.

Many people have missing teeth, and the traditional way of replacing missing teeth is with a dental bridge. The way to do that is we shave down the adjacent teeth in order to create room for the porcelain. The bridge is made in one piece, just like so, and it's cemented and permanently fixed in that position. However, you won't be able to floss in between; you'd have to floss from underneath.

Contrast that with a dental implant. This goes into the bone and it's freestanding on its own. After the bone has grown into the implant, the post is placed onto the tooth, just like so, and then a crown is put on. By doing it this way, you don't have to shave down the adjacent teeth, so it's much more conservative and it lasts you a lifetime.

Video: The Waterpik Advantage

 Hi, I'm Dr. Dela Cruz and I'm here in San Ramon. I'm a dentist, and today I wanted to provide an expert tip on using a water pig. Water pig can be substituted for flossing, and what it does is it forces water deep into your gums, and it removes all the debris, bacteria, all the bad stuff. I usually recommend to do this before you go to bed. You fill up this reservoir with warm water, and you can put a cap full of mouthwash in there. When you use it, it takes away all the debris and makes your gum super healthy, prevents bleeding, and it actually is good for the rest of your body. There's a lot of links between the gum disease and heart disease, and the more you can do to help your gums, the healthier you will be in the long run.
