Earth Day is celebrated every year on April 22 and
teaches people that the planet belongs to everyone, so everyone is equally
responsible for protecting it. Many events are demonstrated worldwide to raise
awareness about how we can show support for environmental protection. It is a
day to inspire appreciation for the Earth’s environment and learn the many issues
that can threaten it.
Here at Legler Orthodontics, Earth Day is not only
important to us on April 22 every year, it is extremely important to us every
day! All three of our offices are located on the Treasure Coast of Florida:
Vero Beach, Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie. The beautiful waterways of this
area are what attracted Dr. Lee Legler to start practicing here in 1991. His love of surfing is even carried through
in the theme of all our offices! So
keeping our waterways on the Treasure Coast clean and safe for the generations
of “Legler Smiles” to come is quite important to all of us here at Legler
Orthodontics.
Please join us this Earth Day and every day to help
protect our waterways of the Treasure Coast of Florida. You and your family can make a difference today! Check out the links below and like them on
