In Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Labor Day is more than the unofficial end of summer.

 

It is a day rooted in the history of American workers and the idea that hard work deserves recognition, respect and rest.

During the late 19th century, at the height of the Industrial Revolution, many Americans worked 12-hour days, seven days a week, often under difficult and unsafe conditions. On September 5, 1882, approximately 10,000 workers marched through New York City in what became the first Labor Day parade, advocating for better working conditions and a shorter workday.

By 1894, Labor Day had become a federal holiday, officially recognizing the social and economic contributions of American workers.

More than a century later, the meaning remains relevant: behind every business, service, organization, and community are people giving their time, knowledge, energy, and talent.

Here in Greater Fort Lauderdale, Labor Day weekend also gives us an opportunity to enjoy the place we call home. Spend some time along our 24 miles of beaches, get out on the water, explore local parks, enjoy Las Olas, support local restaurants and businesses, or simply spend the extra day with family and friends. The official Greater Fort Lauderdale Labor Day guide also highlights outdoor activities, family attractions, dining, entertainment, shopping, and free activities throughout the area.

At Denteast, Labor Day has a special meaning for us.

Great dental care is never the work of just one person. Behind every patient experience is a team of people: 0ur doctors, hygienists, dental assistants, patient care team, laboratories, suppliers, technology partners, collaborators, vendors, delivery guys, marketing experts, developers, camera crew, promoters and many others who contribute their expertise and effort to what we do. Thank you!

We believe in working hard, working intelligently, respecting one another’s time, and creating an environment where people can do their best work. But we also believe that rest is part of doing great work.

That is why this Labor Day, the Denteast team is taking a well-deserved break.

To everyone who works at Denteast, works with us, supports us, and helps us provide the level of dental care our patients deserve: thank you. We see your work, we appreciate it, and we respect it.

And to all the hardworking people who make Fort Lauderdale and our wider South Florida community what it is today—we wish you time to slow down, recharge, and enjoy the people and places that matter to you.

Have a great Labor Day weekend.

Sincerely,
Denteast Team

Dr. Sunny and her team were amazing. I got to experience Denteast for the first time last week. Check-in was a breeze with Shania, Lisa was thorough with my teeth exam and photos, and received a detailed consult and helpful information during routine cleaning with Dr. Sunny. I will definitely come back.Read moreRead less

Dr. Sunny is vibrant and pleasant to work with. Her entire team is friendly and polite. The doctor took her time explaining everything that I needed done. The hygienist was patient and thorough, the x-ray technician was friendly and good natured and the front desk lady was hospitable and professional. I'm happy to have found my new dental office and I hope this office thrives.Read moreRead less

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to denteast for completely transforming my smile! Dr. Sunny is an absolute magician. I went in for Invisalign and the results exceeded every expectation I had. Not only was the Invisalign process smooth and seamless from start to finish, but the work she did repairing my chipped teeth is pure artistry. You cannot even tell where the damage used to be and my smile is infinitely better. It has completely changed in the best way possible. A huge shoutout to Lisa as well for handling my teeth whitening! She did an incredible job, and my teeth are brighter and more vibrant than they’ve ever been. She was so gentle, thorough, and made the whole appointment an absolute breeze. Beyond the amazing treatments, the entire office staff is top-tier. From the front desk to the dental assistants, everyone is incredibly welcoming, kind, professional, and attentive. They make you feel comfortable and cared for from the moment you walk through the door. If you are looking for a dental team that delivers world-class results while making every visit a great experience, this is your place!Read moreRead less

Dr. Sunny and Gresia took the time to walk me through my X-rays and 3D scans and they explained everything in a way that was easy to understand.

The discretion you value. The attention you appreciate. A dental experience arranged around you. There is a particular comfort in arriving somewhere and finding that the details have already been considered. Your preferences are understood. Your time is respected. You have space to settle
