Patient Transformation Stories – Janet S
Janet
Having started major restorative work on my terrible teeth in my late 30s, I had to face the fact that they were unlikely to last for the rest of my life. Another major refit twenty years later before I left Hong Kong helped to shore them up for another decade - but finally it was clear that most of those that remained could no longer be saved. My dentist referred me to a consultant in Birmingham who gave me a plan that meant keeping teeth that were well past their best. This would have meant that I would have had a patchwork smile and therefore facing even more treatment in the future. It was also going to cost a small fortune.
And then I talked to Toyah who recommended me to Richard and his great team. I just had to step through the door to know it was the right place to be. I had always been an anxious patient, although had improved a lot after many hours in the dentist’s chair, but facing the loss of my teeth was something I had dreaded for decades and the thought of dentures was not something I relished.
Richard gave me a lot of time to discuss treatment options and I was given lots of reassurance. I knew I could have sedation for anything that I did not want to face and I was given a very good detailed briefing as to what was proposed. Richard filled me with confidence that the solution offered was the right one - lose them all and go for implant retained bridges to create a beautiful smile and no fear of having it done as I would be sedated – the perfect solution for me!
I was given the best care with a great deal of consideration about how to deal with my health problems. I was so well looked after before, during and after the procedures. And now….I smile with confidence and I can eat what I like. I cannot speak highly enough of the great care I have received and I am so grateful for Richard's skill. My original teeth never looked as good as these! Thank you for my beautiful smile and for making something I had dreaded so easy. The results speak for themselves.
