World Smile Day
It was World Smile Day last Friday 2nd October, and I happened to be sorting through my clinical photographs. This reminded me how much fun and how rewarding it is to change people's outlook on life by enhancing their smile. This can be achieved simply by whitening or may require a full makeover. Often the biggest transformation is when we can replace a missing tooth (or teeth) with implants. Implants are small titanium screws that replace a lost tooth's root, enabling new 'teeth' to be built. The loss of a tooth can be a very traumatic and emotional experience and the ability to replace it, almost like for like, with a permanent solution has a dramatic positive effect on these patients instantly restoring their confidence and self esteem.
