At the office today when I was finished working on a patient I began to find out about how she found us. It’s been a couple of visits so far. She’s getting a whole new set of teeth. Her story is incredible actually because she had been to visit 2 or 3 different dentists and already spent $15000+ on her teeth.

Well, how could her teeth get to be so bad? Not her fault… She is a cancer survivor. She suffered from cervical cancer, ovarian cancer and uterine cancer. The radiation and such just caused her bones to weaken and her teeth just started falling out and breaking.

When I expressed my dismay she told me that she knew of at least three others that are experiencing similar stress. She said it was embarrassing and painful and ultimately affected her ability to work and feel good.

Currently she’s wearing her second set of temps and her real teeth will be going in soon. Already there is a marked difference in facial support. And she was in the office telling everyone how happy she is to finally feel good. It was a proud moment. She has a beautiful face and a great personality and deserves to feel good.

After spending all that money and trying dentist after dentist, I’m sure she was intimidated – It should be easier to find us!

So let’s get the word out!

If you’re reading this article and know of someone in a similar situation, or if this sounds like you, come in for a visit. It never hurts to just make an appointment and just find out what your options are.

Like my new patient says, you use your car every day, but you use your teeth all day! It’s worth it!
