- As if I don't already have enough energy.
Oh, that's good.
Oh, I love coffee.
Oh, it's so good.
I don't know if it's the emoticon that makes it taste better
or if it's just, coffee's just that good.
Woo, so good.
Ah, coffee.
Mm, so good.
All right, what's up, guys?
This is Dr. O from Innovative Dental.
Hope you're having an awesome week.
Man, it's been a week since I've seen you guys,
unless you've been watching the Dental Drive.
Do you guys like the Dental Drive?
Is it workin' out?
Is it engaging, is it fun?
Am I wasting my time?
I mean, seriously, be honest with me.
I can take it.
I can take it, I'm pretty tough.
I might cry a little bit.
I'll try to hide my tears.
I'll edit the tears out of the camera shots and stuff,
but just comment below.
You know what I'm talkin' about, just comment below.
This smile transformation should be one that'll help a lot
of you understand, and I'm sure you'll relate to her story,
and kind of what situation she had going on with her bite
and her smile prior to seeking out cosmetic treatment.
So, when she came into our practice,
she didn't tell us this initially,
but in followup appointments, one of the things
that she had said in her followup appointments is
now she can take a selfie with her granddaughter.
And if you've seen, we have a promotional video,
and it actually has that where the daughter gets married,
and the mom doesn't wanna smile,
then afterwards she smiles.
That was really based off of this lady right here.
Also, I sat next to her at church
about three or four weeks ago,
after I stood next to her in the coffee line at church.
So, it's kind of cool to see her there
and just kind of see her smilin' and livin' life
out in the wild, enjoyin' her new smile.
So, it was pretty cool to connect with her and say hello.
Let's get back to the story of the smile.
So, when she first came, she wanted
to do something fairly quickly.
She saw that we could do smiles in a day,
that we can transform smiles with veneers in a single visit,
and had heard that people had come to us for that.
And that's kind of what she wanted.
And looking at her bite, so let's go ahead
and look at the closeup photo here,
and I'll point to this side.
Do you like the fireplace?
It's like warmin' my back, ooh.
Oh, it's so good.
Coffee is so good.
Cheers, can you see the steam?
Anyways, it's good.
If we look at this photo of the closeup of her bite.
Bite is really important before we
do cosmetic treatment for a number of reasons.
Obviously, we have to have the space in her bite
to make the teeth the proper dimension.
So, heighth, and width, and making sure
that they look great.
After all, if you're gonna invest quite a bit
in your smile and wanna have a confident, beautiful smile,
you definitely don't wanna waste the money
and get something that's kind of subpar.
And right here you can tell that if we were
to build those teeth any taller, especially those canines.
Those are actually her baby canines, isn't that cool?
She's got her primary or baby canine teeth still present,
good amount of bone, so pretty neat
that she's still rockin' those.
We were able to actually look at that and consider,
can we place any veneers on that,
or can we make them look pretty?
And obviously, the bite not gonna let that happen.
So, because of her bite, we had to address that first.
We had to move teeth.
And you know, we didn't use to have
such a great solution for adults to move teeth.
And now, we have an amazing solution,
and that's called Invisalign.
So, we used accelerated Invisalign
and we used some special techniques, too.
And if you've watched this channel at all,
you've heard me probably talk about Invisalign quite a bit.
I love it, it's awesome.
It's a great tool for us, and it allows us
to not have to cut corners and give people
just not as good of the quality smile as we can.
We wanna be able to make the teeth the right length.
And so, in order to do that, we need to create some room.
And Invisalign's an awesome tool to do that.
We decided to use that for about six months.
It moved her bite to where she had some clearance,
and those teeth now were in a proper position.
Now, when we restored them with veneers,
they could bite and not hit each other.
You can see before they were kind of end to end.
And now, we're able to create
the proper overjet and overbite.
So, those two things are pretty important
when you're considering making a beautiful smile.
She's an amazing person, and her awesome story
of how someone goes from here's the before,
still a beautiful lady before.
Just because those worn canines,
kind of looks like maybe she missing some teeth.
But after, we were able to look at her now,
look at the confidence she has in her smile.
Let's go ahead and go to the closeup of the bite.
And now, you can kind of see in her bite
where there's no space and then now transforming
to the after where now we have the space,
the teeth are the right length,
and they work beautifully with her smile.
What's awesome, too, is we were able to go pretty light.
I know there's a lot of fears when patients are going,
okay, how do I make these not look like Chiclets or fake?
And that's really up to the dentist
using the proper material.
It's not just a component of shade.
So, using the right shade is great,
but it needs to be something that's translucent.
So, if you're looking for veneers, obviously,
we would love for you to come to our practice.
We have people do that all the time.
We got a lady from New York coming next week.
We just took care of a guy from Texas today.
I mean, we've got people traveling,
so if you're interested in that, get in touch with us.
We have concierge service that'll help you
set up that appointment so you can get
the vacation dentistry and transform your smile.
So, don't let distance be a problem.
But I get that not everybody's gonna wanna travel.
And so, if you're not, make sure you talk
with your dentist about the type of material.
I recommend something like a, I prefer Emax,
or the feldspathic porcelain is another one.
But feldspathic is kind of likely to fracture.
So, for many reasons, I would prefer Emax porcelain.
And so, you might have heard me talk about that before,
but maybe request that, or talk to a cosmetic dentist
in your area if you're wanting to do the treatment there,
that is comfortable using that material as a veneer for you.
Because it can look really natural,
especially if they use a higher translucent material
rather than a low translucent.
And that just means, fancy term, translucency,
for how much light does it let in?
And when light can penetrate the veneer, looks really good.
So, that's all to say, look at her smile,
looks great, looks natural.
Now, she can get those selfies confidently
with her daughter.
How do you put a value on that?
That's pretty cool when you think about just spending life
with people not feeling comfortable smiling
and expressing your joy, and then take that
and now you can fully express your joy and your happiness,
and smile big and bright and confidently.
And do it in photos with your kids,
people you love, your loved ones, that's awesome.
Being a dentist and doing cosmetic dentistry
has gotta be one of the most rewarding,
fantastic, enjoyable things.
And I just love this story.
I hope you loved it, too.
Next week, oh my gosh, I'm so excited for next week.
We interviewed the girl today, she is so cool.
And I'll put up her photo here.
But this is before.
There are a lot of private things that went on in her life,
a lot of challenges, I think some illnesses,
I don't know all the details,
but just trying to put herself,
and she talks a lot about her own worth.
And so, that's gonna be next week.
So, if you're kind of on the fence about doing something
like improving your smile and transforming your life
with that, this is the lady you wanna talk to.
She's got a story, she's got a passion for life.
So, tune in next week and definitely don't miss
that amazing smile transformation,
and the personal interview and testimony
of that amazing patient.
All right, so hopefully, you found this video useful.
Hopefully, it was encouraging.
I'm hopin' somebody learned something
so that way they don't make any mistakes
when they get their smile done, and learn that,
hey, maybe positioning the teeth first if they're crooked
or the bite is wrong is more of a priority,
so that way you don't waste your investment
and you get a beautiful smile afterwards.
That would be worth every second of this video
if somebody sees it and avoids that mistake.
So, I hope you enjoyed it.
