Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry Announces the “Straight Teeth for Summer” Invisalign Special

Practice News, Special Events Comments Off

Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry is offering a limited time summer Invisalign special to both new and current patients.

Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry Announces the “Straight Teeth for Summer” Invisalign Special practice-newsMany patients want to have the benefits of a beautiful straight smile, but do not want to be inconvenienced with wearing unsightly metal braces for several years. This is where the Invisalign method can make a difference. Invisalign is an alternative to traditional braces, where the patient uses a series of clear aligners that are custom molded to fit the patient’s teeth. The aligners are gradually repositioned over time to adjust the smile and give the desired result.

In contrast to traditional braces that are permanently fixed into the mouth during treatment, Invisalign braces are removable during eating and to brush the teeth. Heather, Marketing & Guest Services Coordinator for the South Florida Dentist, and current Invisalign patient said, “I wanted to have straight teeth for my upcoming wedding, but there was no way that I would be caught wearing metal braces for several years. This is my chance to have straight teeth in a short amount of time without anyone knowing that I am even wearing braces.

“It’s one thing to tell patients what we can do for them,” said Dr. Charles Nottingham, a cosmetic dentist who is the senior partner at Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry. “It’s another thing to show them.”

Smile South Florida Get Festive for Halloween

Dentistry, Practice News Comments Off

The staff of Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry certainly knows how to enjoy themselves and have fun during the holidays.  This past Friday, October 31st, was no exception.  With some of the office staff (including the doctors) dressing up for Halloween, we had a great time.

It’s the one time of year that you can pretend to be someone or something else, without having people think that you’re nuts!  I chose to wear a Corrections Officer outfit, to match Alex, who was a prisoner in his orange jumpsuit.  Dr. Anenberg was fully decked out in a 70’s hippie-meets-disco-mullet-haired dude.  It was hilarious! (See photo below).

I am taking Dr. A to jail.

Later in the evening, we had a fun-filled party at our house with plenty of candy eating and spooky music.  Dr. Nottingham came dressed up in a medieval knight outfit, while his wife, Elisabeth was a cute spider.  Xochilt and Jason made an appearance as well!

It was a great night and we will definitely do it again next year!  Happy Halloween to all from Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry!!

Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry Breaks Into the Wedding Industry health-beautyThere are so many great ideas out there just waiting to be discovered -so much unchartered territory in the marketing world-that all you really need to do is just get creative, think outside of the box, and be ready to get “unbrideled.”

Great ideas can come out of necessity, so I guess that is where my trip began. I am newly engaged to be married next year (2009), and I work as a marketing & guest services coordinator for an upscale cosmetic dental office in south Florida-Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry. The first step began as I have always has crooked lower teeth, and could not imagine smiling in my wedding photos with these crooked snaggleteeth. I started looking into my options, and am in the process of getting Invisalign done to correct the crookedness and overlapping. Prior to my wedding I will also be getting ZOOM! whitening treatment done to make sure that my teeth are as pearly white as they can be.

Dentistry and the Current Economy

Dental News, Practice News Comments Off

Many of us have been affected by the latest news with our economy.

Because I work in dentistry, I was concerned as to how this current situation affects the Dental field.  In the past economic times many people prolonged dental treatment for reasons such as fear, work schedules and more.

Now with the current economic situation we should all be more proactive with our dental care.  Many of us still have jobs that offer dental insurance.  We must take advantage of this benefit.  I find that a lot of patients unknowingly waste their yearly benefits.  I imagine that this is due to work conflicts and such. If we are all pulling together in these tough economic times, one way is to utilize these dental benefits.

Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry Joins Forces With The Extreme Makeover Dental Lab dental-newsda Vinci Studios, the dental laboratory service for ABC’s Extreme Makeover and Fox’s The Swan, now offers a lifetime warranty on their porcelain veneers.

Free Cosmetic Consultations at Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry

Dental Health, Dental Services, Helpful Hints, Practice News 1 Comment »

Smile South Florida Cosmetic Dentistry Offers Cosmetic Consultations, Invisalign Consulations, and Sedations Consultations – Complimentary!

Going to the dentists office can be a scary thing for anyone, no matter what gender or age you are.  Imagine if you wanted to have major cosmetic work that you would possibly be making a large investment on – both financially and aesthetically.  Would you trust your smile to just anyone?

I like to compare dental work (or any other cosmetic procedure for that matter) to a relationship:

(1) It needs to begin on a solid foundation
(2) It is a major decision that involves a great deal of thought, research, and
(3) You want to choose the right person

Choosing the wrong dentist that lacks experience, in exchange for price shopping, so-called “good deals,” and to-good-to-be-true offers can leave you in pain, in debt, and could cost more money out of pocket in the long run!
