​We’d like to introduce you to our patient, Jane Smith (name changed for privacy). Jane is a young adult who, growing up, wasn’t able to care for her teeth as well as she would have liked. Now, at this point in her life, she’s ready to reclaim her smile—not only for herself but for her children as well. She wants to be a role model for them, teaching them the importance of good oral health and leading by example. Jane searched for a dentist who could guide her through a comprehensive treatment plan. After seeing several dentists, she was given a variety of options, from dentures to implant-supported dentures. However, she was determined to save as many of her natural teeth as possible and wanted a dentist who could help her achieve that goal. That’s when she came to us for a consultation. During her visit, we conducted a full exam, including X-rays and photos of her mouth, and discussed her goals for treatment. Jane shared old pictures of herself smiling, wishing to return to that version of herself. Before starting any procedures, we did a mock-up to show her what her smile would look like after treatment. With this visual in hand, we moved forward with a treatment plan tailored specifically to her needs. Over the course of 7-8 appointments, which included necessary healing periods, we were able to restore Jane’s smile with a combination of root canals, extractions, crowns, veneers, bridges, and implants. By the end of the process, we not only saved her teeth but also restored her confidence and her ability to smile in front of her children. Dr. Sharma and our entire team are thrilled to have played a role in helping Jane feel like herself again. The best compliment we received was when her kids didn’t even recognize her—because her smile had changed so much!
