Do you like your smile? Or does the state of your teeth make you feel self-conscious when you talk?
Possibly you find yourself hiding your smile in pictures? Maybe people wonder why you are always so straight faced in their photographs.
If so, you’re not alone. Studies show that our smiles matter. Our health, self-esteem and personal happiness can all be impacted by our teeth.
The good news is we can help! We specialize in the latest innovations and techniques in dentistry to assist you in reclaiming your smile. My favorite part about being a dentist is hearing someone say that I have “changed their life” by simply changing the way someone smiles.
Some common dental problems that can rob us of the smile we desire include:
- Broken Teeth (chips and cracks that cause an uneven smile)
- Missing Teeth (gaps in our smile and difficulty eating or speaking)
- Misaligned Teeth (crooked teeth that are hard to clean and may cause problems with eating, speech, or headaches and/or make us self-conscious about showing our teeth)
- Discolored Teeth (caused by diet, tobacco, or fluorosis)
Over the next few weeks, I am honored to share this blog space with some of our Olympia Hills Family Dental patients and the life changing smile improvements our team has given them. Their photos and testimonials will help illustrate some of the most common dental problems that rob people of their smiles and how we can help get those smiles back.
Here’s what one of our patients had to say about his smile-changing experience:
“Thank goodness for Dr. Hafen!! He changed my life forever by providing me the smile I always wanted. The bridge matches my other teeth perfectly and it has not caused me any discomfort. I was always very self-conscious of my smile, but now I smile from ear to ear in every picture that is taken with my beautiful grandchildren.”
