One of our patients was 31 years old – and wouldn't talk without covering her mouth with her hand.
Growing up with parents who didn't understand oral health created a cascade of problems – root canals, crowns, broken teeth, partial dentures, new cavities on existing dental work. By her 20s, her smile was breaking down.
When she came to us, she felt embarrassed and overwhelmed.
First, know this – there is NO judgment here. We were honored she chose us to help.
We talked through all her options: dentures versus All-on-4 with implants. She was excited about All-on-4 because she wanted permanent teeth, not something removable.
She got her temporaries first. This stage let her decide exactly how she wanted her teeth to look. We made adjustments until they were perfect.
At the try-in for permanent teeth, she confirmed – "These are beautiful. These are what I want."
The transformation was monumental.
She went from covering her mouth to hide broken teeth to smiling big and wide. She even got a new job, she radiated so much confidence.
There's nothing better than seeing someone's life change like this. This is exactly why we love what we do.
