Question:
Dr. Sam, could you explain in layman’s terms what Face Lift Dentistry ® is?
Answer:
Face Lift Dentistry ® is much more than just a cosmetic dental procedure. It’s about the highest level of dental health that has a profound and positive impact on the health of the entire body.
It prolongs life with the elimination of decay and disease that is very common in the mouth that freely flows down the throat and penetrates into the blood stream every single day. With the reduction in mouth infections the health of the entire body is improved. With decreased levels of disease and infections, the patient adds years to their life span and quality of life is improved.
These patients have achieved such a superior level of home care, that they actually enjoy doing it. Dentistry that is a perfect fit, allows these patients to clean their mouths and be totally free of infection. Gums are pink and tight, no swelling, no bleeding and their breath is clean and fresh. The benefits of the total approach to dental health care are enormous long term.
Face Lift Dentistry ® also reduces daily stress within the skeletal muscular system. The grinding of the teeth and a bad bite contribute to TMJ pain, headaches, neck and jaw muscle pain. This level of stress reduces the body’s ability to function efficiently and reduces mental capacity as the entire body is in constant compromise as it has to adapt to a higher stress level. Treating the bite and creating harmony with the jaw joint or TMJ or jaw joint, reduces mental and physical stress within the body systems. It is well documented in the literature that stress reduction improves the quality and quantity of years during the patient’s lifetime.
Face Lift Dentistry ® also improves self-esteem and professional appearance. How a person presents themselves impacts the quality of their relationships. The movie industry creates ugly looking teeth for the villains while the hero looks very good.
Studies have show that children with bad looking teeth and bad bites have more behavioral problems. Self-esteem is greatly enhanced and Face Lift Dentistry ® benefits the entire face including the eyes. The patients viewed in Dr. Muslin’s Face Lift Dentistry website all show the “proud and happy” look because they know they are looking better for the rest of their lives
