We have had the same dentist for over 15 years. I truly love the man. He is funny, and kind… just what you would call a genuinely nice guy. Always smiling and always concerned with what is going on with our family. He’s also one of those people who appear ageless. We don’t see him daily… just every six months or year at the most… so you would think we would notice changes as the years go by. We never have… until this last visit.
He looked completely different! He looked happier. He looked younger. More confident. We all noticed the change, but we could not figure out what it was specifically. I told him he looked great! He politely thanked me without acknowledging the change or giving us any hints as to the cause.
The appointment continued with the usual conversation, made difficult with his hands in my mouth, and then he offered some information. He had been working on perfecting his smile with Invisalign… the clear plastic tray similar to a retainer… but used to straighten your teeth. I thought this must be the change… however… I had never noticed that his teeth were crooked… much less require braces. He’s always had a pleasant smile.
Again, he continued with his work and then it happened. He mentioned casually that he had lost 60 pounds! I never thought of him as overweight… but holy cow! He looked incredible! Apparently you have to remove the tray in order to eat… and brush your teeth prior to putting them back in your mouth.
Why is this not sold as a weight loss product? My friends ordering her trays today!
She’ll have somuchmore to smile about!
I am participating in a blog campaign from Bucks2Blog for a cosmetic dentist in NYC and was compensated. However, the views and opinions are my own.
