Extreme Makeover Stories

Smile Extreme Makeovers... by Design

Hazel M. Roberts

Dear Dr. Flax:

I had always been reluctant to smile because of the space between my two front teeth. One picture taken at my youngest son’s wedding showed my teeth and I realized just how bad they looked. My oldest son commented that I would, “be so pretty” if I had the space between my teeth closed and suggested I consult with a cosmetic dentist. I took his suggestion and scheduled a consultation with you.

My first visit with you revealed that I was actually missing a tooth on both sides of these front teeth. In addition, there was excess tissue between these teeth which was connected to my upper gum. While I have always had regular dental care, I had never been told this before. It was then that I decided to begin the process of correction. Now, I enjoy smiling because of my beautiful teeth.

Thanks to you and your wonderful staff. The care, concern, and love I received on each visit were special. In return, I want you to know how appreciative I am. I have a new “dental family” and I love each of you.

Sincerely,

Hazel M. Roberts
