Cosmetic Dentistry
Doctors Art and Kim Mowery don’t just dabble in cosmetic dentistry. Both are graduates of the University of Florida School of Dentistry and are currently clinical adjunct professors there. They have extensive cosmetic, reconstructive and physiological dental training from the prestigious Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies and Dr. Art Mowery served as an instructor at the institute for more than ten years.
Combined, the doctors have placed over 5,000 porcelain restorations and have performed thousands of cosmetic, restorative and physiological smile makeovers. They have treated more than 200 other dentists, have more than 200 client testimonials (link to videos & Print), and have hundreds of ‘Actual Client before and after photos’ to view (link to gallery).
When choosing a dentist to perform your smile makeover be sure you know what to look for;
Training
Start by ensuring that whoever is doing your treatment has specific training in aesthetic dentistry either at the university level or through continued education courses. Your dentist should continue his or her aesthetics education every year.
Consultation
Once you find a dentist who interests you, make an appointment for a consultation. While there, ask to see the photo album of the dentist’s own before and after cases. Be sure that it contains only the work they have done and are not stock photography or simulations. Also look at the dentist and his or her team member smiles; have they had the procedures they are recommending to you? Do they look good? Ask who did their dental work.
Exam
During the records appointment, the dentist should personally do a comprehensive examination of your teeth. He or she should view x-rays, discuss any discomfort you may be experiencing and ask you pertinent questions about what you would like to change about your smile or bite. They should then give you several treatment options to enhance or repair your smile.
Laboratory
Ask what laboratory ceramist and materials the dentist uses to make veneers. Laboratories and material can also be researched. Your dentist should have no problem helping you to get personal validation that they use an excellent lab and materials.
"We love what we do," says Art Mowery. “Kim and I thrive on the positive changes our Smile Makeovers create for our patients. Many of them couldn’t even be helped before this new technology. Now, crooked teeth can be straightened, stained teeth whitened, chipped or broken teeth can be repaired and missing teeth replaced. Most, in just two visits! No more two years wearing braces.
