When Samantha* came to our office, she had already seen several dentists. She had broken-down teeth and cavities on every single tooth. Each time she saw a new dentist, the treatment plan felt overwhelming. She would start some of the treatment, but she never finished. She could never see the end in sight.
A Plan She Could See From Start to Finish
With Samantha, we made everything transparent. Before we ever touched her teeth, we mapped out exactly:
- Which teeth needed to come out
- Which teeth needed crowns
- Where we would place her implants
- What would be done at every single appointment
- How long each appointment would take
- How much each appointment would cost
- What she could expect her smile to look like
Everything was explained in a presentation she could take home and discuss with her family. She told us how much she appreciated how thorough the plan was before any treatment started.
An Office Just for Her
Because her treatment was extensive, there were days when we closed the office just for Samantha, so we could make the most of each appointment without any interruptions. These accommodations helped her feel more at ease. She knew she had my undivided attention.
Her Treatment
Samantha’s restoration included 3 dental implants, a root canal and 24 esthetic crowns, in about 7 appointments.
From start to finish, her case took 2 years, because we waited for her implants to heal before restoring her smile permanently. She didn’t have to wait to smile, though. Within the first month she had temporaries that looked very much like her final crowns.
The Result
Today Samantha smiles confidently, and she can finally eat the foods she avoided for years.
“I love that I can finally eat the foods I’ve waited so long to eat. I love that I can finally smile big without covering it up.”
