• Dental clinic uses minimally invasive care, hospital partnerships to treat children's teeth (wagmtv.com) — Families in Houlton should know that St. Apollonia Dental Clinic now uses minimally invasive techniques to treat children's tooth decay and partners with Houlton Regional Hospital for cases needing general anesthesia. That means kids requiring more complex dental work can often receive care closer to home, instead of traveling far for hospital-based pediatric dentistry.
