ether you work in a doctor’s office or a small business startup, it’s likely that you deal with a seemingly endless mountain of paper.
This information is the lifeblood of any business and is critical to your business’s success. But how can you best use this information to move your business forward? To help, here are three ways that you can better store, manage and access your information: • Move documents to the cloud—How many times have you turned your office upside down in search of a document? You know that it’s on your desk or in a file cabinet somewhere, but you can’t seem to locate it. You’re not alone. According to International Data Corporation (IDC), the average employee will spend 2.5 hours a day searching for work-related information. With this in mind, small- to medium-sized business owners should consider adopting cloud-enabled IT systems to digitize important information, centralize data and reduce long-term costs. • Simplify tasks with multifunction technology—Like most small businesses, it’s typical for staff to manage multiple tasks at once, which can lead to miscellaneous documents strewn around the office. In today’s world of digital information, scanning document files to the network or the cloud enables staff to clear the clutter and work more efficiently. Consider a multifunction printer that offers scanning, faxing and printing directly to the network or cloud, such as the HP LaserJet Pro MFP M521 or HP LaserJet Pro 500 color MFP M570.

More than 4 million people in the U.S. wear braces and more than 25 percent of them are adults. There are many reasons. Some say not having a straight smile holds them back from landing a new job, getting a promotion, fitting in at school, or asking that special someone out on a date. Others see it as a way to improve their self-esteem and health, overall. The good news is, with today’s orthodontic technology, you can avoid much of the appearance-related anxiety that traditional metal braces bring and opt for a more discreet, even invisible way to improve your smile and health. Consider these available options: • Ceramic braces, similar to traditional braces, but with tooth-colored brackets instead of metal. Ceramic braces can correct even serious orthodontic issues but blend into the tooth for a more understated look. They’re so subtle that celebrities Tom Cruise and Faith Hill wore them on the red carpet. These tend to be the most wallet-friendly of the new generation of subtle braces.

Not everyone can be treated with clear aligners, but your orthodontist can tell you if you’re a good candidate for these. • Lingual braces are the most discreet option for people who want to keep their braces completely hidden. These use brackets on the back of your teeth, the “lingual” side, and don’t require much discipline—once they’re in, they stay put until your orthodontist removes them. They’re so hidden that Miss Teen USA contestants have competed while wearing them. Incognito Hidden Braces from 3M are available with options to straighten your whole arch or just the “social six,” the teeth that are visible at the front of your mouth. These customized braces are often a good choice for professional adults or anyone who really wants to keep their orthodontic treatment to themselves. Learn more at hiddenbraces.com.
