In my job I'm talking to people all the time. I'm either presenting or I'm talking one on one with people, and what had occurred to me, because my mouth had gotten so bad, my teeth had gotten so bad, what had happened was I was concentrating more on hiding my mouth, than communicating with people. and I imagine of the message was getting lost, and I imagine probably even some of my confidence was being impacted, and I had talked to my dentist about the possibility of implants. And he didn't do it all the time, but he said I could certainly do it for you that it would be very expensive, so I heard an ad for the smile implant center and I said, let me give it a shot. Let me got and talk to these folks, and I did, and I was very impressed with how they approached me to begin with, how they looked at the problem. and as I looked at it I was really looking at value. not value in term with what's the cheapest way to do this. because I could have just gotten dentures and it would have all been over with, but I looked at three things. Professionalism, the people doing it, did they really know what they were doing? and in fact they did. I did all kinds of research and these folks really knew what they were doing. I looked at what they were doing, the procedures, the materials. Did some research on that, found out this stuff is good. it has a proven track record. And third, was cost, and I was stunned by the cost. When I talked to my dentist about it, he gave me one figure, for just doing part of my mouth. The figure that I got for having my entire mouth done here was about a 1/3 of what my dentist quoted me for part of my mouth.
Prior to coming in and having this done, everyone explained to me in great detail exactly what was going to happen. That of course took care of a lot of the apprehension. When I got here, of course, we went through it again. And everybody was concerned about my comfort. First they said we don't want this to be a painful bad experience, and they made sure that was the case. It was not painful, actually the day went by fairly quickly. I got up walked myself out of here to my car with no problems at all. And felt great.
I've had a number of friends who've had problems with teeth, whether missing a tooth or dentures. And I suggested to them that they'll want to take a look at the smile implant center. Where as cost may not be the biggest determining factor for me, I know it is for a lot of people. And you just can't beat the cost of having it done here.
So I did this, it was great, I have to tell you I walked out of here, the first day, with a full set of teeth. What you see in my mouth now, the day that I had the procedure, this is it.
but frankly I was eating, fairly normally, 4 days after I had it done. And I haven't had a problem with it, this is great. And most important of all, what worked out absolutely the best, is when I smile now, my wife smiles again.
Pros: value, professionalism, knowledge, cost
