Terra Incognita, indeed. Spent the day with Jan Streblov at Medinah Country Club exploring autotransplantation of teeth: one of the most underutilized procedures in modern dentistry. Moving a patient’s own tooth to replace one that’s been lost: biological & elegant.

Grateful for clinicians willing to chart the unfamiliar and share the map.

She flew in from Florida for just four teeth.
▪️
Her concern wasn’t a “Hollywood smile.”
She simply didn’t like how her two front teeth hung lower than the rest of her smile, and with her son’s wedding approaching, she wanted to feel confident in photos.
Sometimes the smallest details are the ones people notice most.
▪️
After a detailed consultation, we focused on creating balance rather than change.
Treatment plan:
• Gum lift to create symmetry in the gumline
• 2 porcelain veneers
• 2 porcelain crowns
By carefully adjusting the proportions and blending the upper four front teeth, we were able to create a result that feels natural, harmonious, and uniquely hers.
▪️
The best smile makeovers aren’t about making teeth look different.
They’re about making them look like they always belonged there.
Now she’s wedding-ready.

Great dentistry rarely happens in isolation.
▪️
Our interdisciplinary study club at Medinah brings together talented clinicians from multiple specialties who are committed to learning, challenging each other, and elevating the level of care we provide our patients.
▪️
When you surround yourself with people who hold themselves to the highest standards, the conversations get better, the thinking gets sharper, and the results for our patients improve.
▪️
Grateful to help lead a group that believes education, collaboration, and a little fun along the way are essential to staying at the top of our profession.
Always learning. Always improving.

Today would have been my dad’s birthday.
▪️
It’s been five years since cancer took him from us, but the impact he had on my life is something time can never take away.
▪️
He showed me what resilience looks like, how to treat people with kindness, and how important family truly is. The older I get, the more I understand just how much of who I am comes from him.
▪️
Moments like this photo, seeing him with his grandson, remind me that love and influence continue long after someone is gone.
▪️
I miss you every day, Dad! Happy Birthday!

When a patient says, “I know exactly what I want,” I listen closely.
▪️
She came to us after being referred by her general dentist, wanting to replace the four upper front crowns that never quite felt like her. The shape felt too round… too “bubbly.” She had a very clear vision for the value, color, and overall character of her smile.
▪️
Cases like this are all about communication.
Between patient, dentist, and ceramist.
▪️
Before replacing the crowns, we completed KoR whitening to brighten her natural teeth so the new restorations could blend seamlessly. From there, it was an ongoing dialogue with a master ceramist; refining shape, surface texture, and color until everything felt balanced, natural, and uniquely hers.
▪️
When she saw the final result, she was ecstatic. And those moments, when someone finally sees the smile they’ve been envisioning, are what make the details worth it.
Because great dentistry isn’t just about replacing teeth. It’s about listening carefully enough to create something that truly fits the person behind the smile.

Some patients just feel like family.
▪️
This sweet soul reminds me so much of my adopted grandmother: gentle, patient, full of warmth, and always bringing a smile into the room before we even begin.
▪️
Moments like this are why I love what I do. Dentistry isn’t just about teeth. It’s about people. It’s about trust. It’s about caring for someone the same way you would care for your own family.
▪️
Taking care of her is never “just an appointment.” It’s a privilege.
▪️
Grateful for patients who make this profession so meaningful.

Fourteen years.
▪️
Every time I walk into the AARD meeting, I’m reminded why I fell in love with dentistry in the first place.
▪️
The level of thought.
The precision.
The accountability.
The commitment to doing things the right way, not the easy way.
▪️
The American Academy of Restorative Dentistry is a room full of clinicians who hold themselves to the highest possible standard. Not for recognition. Not for ego. But for their patients.
▪️
I’ve been fortunate to attend for over 14 years, and I never take that for granted. Each year I leave sharper, more inspired, and more grounded in what excellence truly looks like.
▪️
And none of this journey would be possible without mentorship. Dennis has helped guide me through this path, pushing me to think deeper, work harder, and elevate my standards beyond what I thought was possible. That kind of mentorship changes a career.
▪️
Grateful for the friendships.
Grateful for the learning.
Grateful to be in rooms where excellence is the norm.

This is what happens when someone finally decides to do something for themselves. Not to chase “perfect,” but to feel confident every time they smile.
We didn’t overhaul who he is; we refined what was already there.
▪️
Thoughtful planning, precise ex*****on, and a result that looks natural, balanced, and effortless. The kind of smile that doesn’t announce dental work… it just feels right.
That’s always the goal here: listen first, collaborate closely, and create a smile that fits you, not a template.
▪️
If you’ve been thinking about making a change but want it done with intention, honesty, and expertise… you’re in the right place.

Good people, loud music, zero agendas!
The kind of night where conversations overlap, laughter wins, and everyone forgets what time it is. Grateful for friendships that feel easy, energy that’s contagious, and moments that remind you life is meant to be enjoyed, not overscheduled.

Fridays hit different when you’re working with people like this.
▪️
Erika and Damian are the kind of team members who make hard days feel lighter, busy days feel smoother, and great dentistry possible behind the scenes. Skill, heart, humor, and a whole lot of teamwork packed into one photo.
▪️
Grateful for a team that shows up, has each other’s backs, and still finds time to laugh in between patients. This is what makes the practice feel like more than just a workplace.

She came to us at a big moment in her life. Heading into high school and missing her lateral incisors. That kind of transition is already a lot for any teenager, and her smile was something she thought about every day.
▪️
From the start, this was a team effort. We worked closely with her orthodontist throughout braces to carefully plan spacing, alignment, and final tooth position. The goal was always the same: give her a result that felt natural, confident, and non-removable, something she wouldn’t have to think about or take in and out.
▪️
After orthodontics, we completed KOR whitening to brighten her natural teeth, then designed porcelain Maryland bridges to replace her missing laterals. Conservative. Precise. Stable. And most importantly, age-appropriate and confidence-boosting.
▪️
Watching her see her finished smile and knowing she’s walking into high school feeling comfortable and proud is why collaborative dentistry matters. This is about timing, planning, and listening just as much as it’s about technique.
