Smile makeover is something that's gotten a lot of press lately with some TV programs that focus on it. Smile make over is nothing more than doing dentistry from a cosmetic standpoint. Veneers are part of it. Crowns are part of it, implants are part of it. There's a lot of different things and what's best for the patient would be something we can explain to them individually what works for them. We have some unique things. When we do smile makeovers. We have the dental lab actually come to our office so we can custom pick a shade for that patient. And I encourage the patient to look at pictures of teeth, tell me what they want, what it is they'd like to get. And it's not just about the color. The color is important, but actually contour is just as important. So we have patients looking at different contours. You know there's about 11 different contours of teeth out there?And we educate the patients so they can decide what's best for them. Believe it or not, there's male and female teeth and if you give someone the wrong teeth, it will look wrong. They won't know exactly what it is, but they'll say, “Well, it just doesn't look right.” Even the Greeks figured this out. I teach this to dentists. 3000 years ago. You know the width of your front tooth is one 16th of the width of your face? The length of the tooth is also one 16th of the length of your face and the same general shape, male and female teeth.So there's a science to it, but there's also an art and this is where the lab comes in and we get the shading and the color just right for that patient. So it's science and art together that makes cosmetic work overs and you can't have one without the other. We have patients fly in from all over the country for this particular procedure. We've earned a reputation of doing this very well and they're challenging cases. I've had cases I've done that were done previously by two or three other dentists and I tell the patient, “I don't want to be another one in the list. I want to be the last one. We're going to figure this out. We want to get this done just right for you. And I need from you feedback on what it is you want things to be.”
