Cosmetic Crowns - COLUMBUS | HILLIARD | SPRINGFIELD | POWELL, OH

Denise:
Growing up as a kid, I always had never liked my smile. It was my teeth weren’t perfect. They weren’t straight by no means. I just had this feeling that, “Gosh. I just don’t like my smile.” I had recently retired from a job that I’d done for over 30 years. And so, I decided, “Hey. This is the perfect time. I’m going to do something. I’m not going to sit around. I’m not going to start stuffing my mouth and just being miserable.” I looked at that as, “Hey. I’m going to get healthy.” I started real small, small steps. One day in March, I just decided to go for a walk. I live out in the country. And so, I’m thinking, “Okay. I’m going to start walking.” It felt really, really good. And then the next day, I started walking.

That led up to eating healthy, doing three miles a day. In my first year alone, I walked over a thousand miles in one year. To go along with that, it’s like, “Okay. I want that smile. I want people to see me.” I’m healthier than I’ve ever been. I’ve lost 53 pounds. I stopped smoking. I started eating right. I was walking. When I came to Blank Dental Group. I sat down with Dr. Blank. I told him, “Hey. I just don’t like my smile.” He said, “What don’t you like about it?” I told him, “I just don’t like the shape of my teeth. I want to be able to smile. I want to be happy.” I felt like, “Hey. I’m not a spring chicken anymore.” I’m getting older and it’s like, “What’s holding you back?” So I decided. We sat down. We came up with a plan, and we did the front uppers of my teeth, my smile line. We did six crowns. It was the best decision I have ever made in my entire life.

Dr. Blank:
The thing that kind of touched me with her is it brought her to tears. You see that every now and then. She realized she waited too long. She missed these years of opportunity. In her words to me, she said, “I wish I would have done it sooner.” That’s typically what we hear. You don’t realize how good it can be until you do the process. Most people are too scared to start it. At Blank Dental, we’re trying to get you to the end and not worry about those fears.

Denise:
When they did, they put the temporary crowns on, I mean, I was so excited. I cried. I still get teary-eyed thinking about it. Best decision in my life.
