With the goal of staying healthy for many years to come, and better sleep for himself and his wife, this health conscious founder came to us ready to improve his life. He arrived well aware of the fact that untreated sleep apnea is estimated to shorten one’s lifespan by 7-10 years.
With a history of having had double jaw surgery 25 years ago without an ideal result, and 2 full mouth reconstructions trying to find a bite that felt comfortable, he had tried it all before. So we discussed his options ranging from idealizing his bite, esthetics, and airway by redoing his previous jaw surgeries and reconstructions OR focusing on just his sleep apnea with a nighttime appliance to improve his airway while sleeping. He decided to skip the jaw surgery and have a full mouth reconstruction to idealize his youthful display, bite and smile.
Using our Ageless Smile Algorithm we designed a smile that was much more natural in tooth color and translucency, had a youthful amount of tooth display, and supported his lips for more fullness. Given his long history he had concerns about getting the bite right, as it had alway been a problem. But in the end he said he had no idea a bite could feel so great! And to his and his wife’s amazement, his snoring stopped as well, even before we made him his nighttime appliance. Now he has a more youthful and more natural appearance, and he saved years of his life by improving his sleep apnea - A truly Ageless Smile.
