The Power of a Smile

Wikipedia describes a smile as:

 A smile is a facial expression formed primarily by flexing the muscles at the sides of the mouth.^[1] Some smiles include a contraction of the muscles at the corner of the eyes, an action known as a "Duchenne smile". Smiles performed without the eye contraction can be perceived as "fake".

Among humans, smiling is an expression denoting pleasure, sociability, happiness, or amusement. It is distinct from a similar but usually involuntary expression of anxiety known as a grimace. Although cross-cultural studies have shown that smiling is a means of communication throughout the world,^[2] there are large differences between different cultures, with some using smiles to convey confusion or embarrassment.

We work with smiles all day long and every smile is unique, no two of them are alike.  Our goal in providing personal attention to all the details is to give you the smile you desire. Some things that may inhibit our ability to give you the smile you desire are the shape and size of your teeth. When this is the case, we work side by side with your general dentist to make your teeth the optimum shape and size that they should be.

In our office, we provide the extra attention to this detail. This is so important for both visual and functional purposes. We are the "set-up" guys, placing your teeth where they need to be and provisionally bonding them until orthodontic treatment is complete. Once treatment in our office is complete, your general dentist will place the final restoration.  When you have teeth that are misshapen, worn or small, this is so important to ensure long term stability for your orthodontic investment.

At Dr. Majznerski's office our goal is to provide you with all the extra details that will give you the beautiful smile that you desire, a smile that will last a lifetime!
