I was researching orthodontists because I'm getting Invisalign. Unfortunately.
And I found this amazing dentist. I don't have any reason to see this guy so I won't be going here but, I thought this was amazing work and I had to share it with people who need more than just straight teeth.

(I'm amazed by these results)
(Look at how drastically different she looks. She looks like a different person.)
For people out there suffering from TMJ or things like, overbite, underbite, or want to improve their jaw alignment issues, facial profile issues- even look younger, make the face appear more symmetrical and proportional (fixing the effects of overbite resulting in a smaller chin).
He does it without porcelain veneers, which normally require that your teeth are shaved down to nubs, permanently ruined. They are expensive and lets be honest they don't look natural.
And without needing braces or jaw surgery- which braces takes forever, can permanently damage the enamel on your teeth and also all the other reasons no one wants braces lol, and jaw surgery is risky. no one wants to be put under, drugged up on pain meds for months, with downtime healing with their face swollen, its just a huge hassle and a mess to deal with post-op- not to mention the risks during and after surgery- the most scary being blood clot resulting in death, stroke or other complications during the surgery that basically result in you not waking up, the fear that people have of anesthesia (which- you should be afraid of it, its not the safest thing in the world-it is a risk to be put under- and if you've had multiple surgeries- the more times you are put under, the more of a risk it is), and, lastly, fatal infections after surgery. right now superbugs are super common, unfortunately. they breed in places like OR's and they cannot be sterilized away, or treated once they've entered a host. There is no way to predict that a patient will develop a post-op infection, and sometimes, there is no way to treat it. Resulting in a cascade of organ failure, high grade fevers and death.
Needless to say- I would never go under the knife unless it was absolutely the last possible option. If someone wants to do surgery on your jaw don't let them. If you want jaw surgery for cosmetic reasons, consider other options like facial fillers and cosmetic dentistry to correct your appearance.
It's just not worth it.
I thought this was amazing work that this dentist is doing here, because here's the best part. This doesn't require that you be put under. The doesn't require numbing. The procedure is painless. PAINLESS. And takes just one visit. I'm like what???? lol. Like you literally walk in, with TMJ, or premature aging, a lisp, extreme underbite etc. And walk out with a changed face, a brand new perfect smile.
That blows my mind.

here is an example of the full depth, of how much of a hassle jaw surgery is for people with severe underbite.
The reason why I am calling it "work" as if it's like an art form is because it truly is to me. It's hard to explain succinctly but, there are things that this dentist can do that I haven't seen any other cosmetic dentist do even with surgery and veneers. I've seen a lot of before and after results, where the teeth are better in line, but not- *perfect* like this.
There is more that goes into a perfect smile than just straight teeth. And ontop of that, he creates a better facial alignment for people that is actually notably different and has more perfect alignment, symmetry and proportion.
The cost of that alone, in fillers or surgery, would be tens of thousands of dollars.
For people who are just born with bad jaw alignment, it's just not fair that they would have to undergo all these crazy procedures and spend all this money just to look "normal"
I always felt bad for people dealing with that. But you can see here, the people are like really happy afterward and it makes me happy to see that.
I've seen so many cosmetic dental stuff just, not turn out *that great* to seem worth all the money and effort, and pain of procedure.
But this guy truly knows what he's doing and I really appreciate it. This is the kind of cosmetic dentistry people need. This is a really good thing he is doing here.
