DENTAL DIGEST Ira Goldberg, DDS, FAGD, DICOI, FAAID Diplomate of the American Board of Oral Implantology / Implant Dentistry SNAP-ON-DENTURES With the looming thought of an economic recession, many patients are seeking less expensive options to address some of their dental problems. Snap-On-Dentures, also known as Implant Overdentures, are an excellent solution for a wide variety of dental troubles. A Snap-One-Denture is a full denture that snaps onto dental implants that are placed within the jaw. The implants significantly reduce or eliminate issues such as unesthetic teeth, non-savable teeth, advanced gum disease, persistent pain, denture movement, frustration, and embarrassment. It is important to realize that the denture is still removable, meaning the teeth come in & out of your mouth. Temporary dentures are sometimes required in the process of making overdentures. Reasons include: to allow the mouth to heal after extractions; to allow implants to integrate with bone for a few months; or to try out a re-designed smile. Sometimes these temporary dentures can be utilized as the final teeth, which will save you money.

If you have been considering a denture, or are a current denture wearer, overdentures are one treatment option worth considering!

“MR. JOE” BIGLIN LOCAL VOICES Joe Biglin, 66, was playing in a rock band in the early 1980s when his agent called and asked if he knew any Irish music. He didn’t, but seeing as the gig paid $400, he said he would learn 20 songs from listening to his mother’s Irish records. His agent then mentioned the gig paid $800 if the performer was from Ireland. “In my grandfather’s best Irish brogue, I said, ‘Well, tell them I’m from Ireland, then.’” He got the $800. In 1983, Biglin founded The Irish Harpers, a six-member band that now includes his son, Joe, and several other local musicians. WHERE DO YOU LIVE AND WHO MAKES UP YOUR FAMILY? I live on Lake Hopatcong in Jefferson. My family includes my son Joe, my daughter Erin, her husband Jeff, and a wonderful granddaughter Riley. WHAT WAS YOUR FULL-TIME PROFESSION? I was a consultant for the financial industry and designed trading systems. DESCRIBE THE TYPE OF MUSIC YOU TYPICALLY PLAY IN PUBLIC AND WITH WHOM? Our music style has been described as a “Celtic jam band.” We play fun time Irish tunes, classic rock, old school country and all varieties of dance music. I also play solo gigs where I am known as The Mr. Joe Show, and I’m in various other band configurations like The Biglin Gang. I am the lead singer and rhythm guitarist in The Irish Harpers. HOW OFTEN ARE YOU PERFORMING? The band plays once or twice a month during the summers with an extremely busy schedule in March. We mainly play bars and clubs in Northern New Jersey, and many civic organizations, bagpipe clubs and Irish associations hire us for fundraisers, dances and parties. WHAT OR WHO MADE YOU WANT TO BECOME A MUSICIAN? WHO HAS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST MUSICAL INFLUENCE IN LIFE AND WHY? In the early 1960s, the Beatles were coming on the scene just as I, and every other kid in America, was being introduced to rock and roll. Their unique harmonies and electric guitars drew me in. Soon after that, bands like the Grateful Dead and Pink Floyd brought a completely new feel to the music scene. Perhaps my greatest musical influence was The Doors. Jim Morrison was a magical frontman, backed by some of the finest musicians of the time. Their style and sound are probably the biggest influence on my original recordings. WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT PLAYING MUSIC? For me, it’s all about the audience. As a frontman, I love to get the party started and get our followers fired up. I love the camaraderie of the band. After 40 years, we’ve had some great times and have some strange stories. BESIDES MUSIC, DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER HOBBIES? I love to travel and have been to all 50 states and to over 20 foreign countries. I am on the board of directors of the Cedar Grove Elks, I play softball for the Sussex Blue Jays, I love camping and attend numerous music festivals up and down the East Coast. Closer to home, I am an active member of Our Lady Star of the Sea parish, and I volunteer on the Floating Classroom run by The Lake Hopatcong Foundation. WHAT’S THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE ANYONE HAS EVER GIVEN YOU IN YOUR PURSUIT OF MUSIC? During the late ‘80s and ‘90s, I worked backstage security at the Capital Theatre in Passaic, Giants Stadium in East Rutherford and The Ritz in Elizabeth when many of my favorite bands performed. One evening I was talking with Roy Clark in his dressing room. He said: “There is no such thing as being in the right place at the right time. You need to be in the right place always and eventually, your right time will come.” IS THERE SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO LEARN ABOUT YOU? In the 1990s I won a variety of radio contests. I wrote the winning jingle for WPLJ’s “The Big Show with Scott & Todd” morning program. I was selected to be WDHA’s on-location reporter and broadcast live from Woodstock ’94. The Irish band The Corrs selected my 3-D art project for the Green Thing contest, which saw me have dinner in Ireland in a castle with George Killian of Killian’s Irish Red beer. local involved unique I AM I AM I AM lakehopatcongnews.com 17
