A very happy Dentist Studio patient describing her life before after and during her complete and successful smile makeover

Dr. Zach Hodgins is the official dentist for the 2008 Mrs. Globe Pageant. This year Mrs. Great Britain flew from England to the Dentist’s Studio in Winter Park, FL to have her smile design completed. I’m sure that you would agree that she now has a winning smile! Jane had her smile makeover completed while totally relaxed with IV sedation. Dr. Hodgins placed 10 porcelain veneers to give Jane a brighter, whiter smile. Jane was gracious enough to comment on her experience in a written testimonial.

Dear Dr Hodgins and Staff,
What can I say that hasn’t already been said! You are truly an amazing Dentist with amazing staff. From the moment I walked through the doors of your office to start my smile make over until the end of my treatment and the miracle of my new smile I was treated like a queen. I was always scared of the dentist from an early age but you recommended sedation dentistry and talked me through the procedure and it changed my life, I now have no fear of going to the dentist and I have an amazing new smile thanks to your devotion and generocity.My smile was always ok but my teeth always looked darker than I wanted and years of antibiotics had left their mark and one of my front teeth turned in very slightly which I wasn’t happy with, you did a thorough smile analysis and created the perfect smile just for me, right from the very first consultation until the end result I felt like I was in safe hands and couldn’t wait to see the finished result. Your staff are so friendly and really made me feel special, thank you to Dawn for going above and beyond her duty and giving up her time to help me through my procedure, and to you Dr Hodgins for working around my time schedule. I truly had an amazing experience at The Dentist Studio, from the comfortable relaxing surroundings to the professional, friendly staff and an exceptionally gifted talented dentist, you have all made my dream of having a perfect smile come true. Everyday I smile more and more and people smile back and comment on how wonderful my smile is. I will be forever indebted to you for giving me the gift of a lifetime, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Warmest Regards,
Jayne Taylor, Mrs Great Britain Globe 2007.

Q: Will I really be totally relaxed?
A: You’ll receive enough sedation so that you’ll be completely unaware of the treatment, as you would if you were asleep.

Q: Will I remember anything?
A: At the end of the treatment, you’ll have little or no memore of your dental visit.

Q: Will I feel any pain?
A: Most patients feel no discomfort whatsoever during their treatment and feel surprisingly good afterward. Local anesthetic is used in addition to the sedation drugs.

Q: Is Sedation Dentistry safe for me?
A: Before starting any treatments, we review your medical history, and we monitor you very closely while your under sedation.

Q: Will my insurance cover treatment?
A: We’ll review your insurance coverage and, if necessary, make financial arrangements to insure you get the dental care you need.

We’ll be happy to explain the details and benefits of Sedation Dentistry.

ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF GOOD HEALTH AND A BEAUTIFUL SMILE!

Sedation dentistry protocols have been safely used for over 30 years with millins of dental procedures. Before starting any treatments, we review you medical history and explain how sedation dentistry can work for you. We want you to feel good about going forward towards a healthy, new smile.

The night before the procedure, you will take medication – a pill, that will ensure a good nights sleep. The morning of your appointment we will make sure that you are very comfortable and we monitor your vital signs very closely with the latest equipment. An IV is started, and the medication is administered to sedate you for your appointment. Many patientst feel no discomfort whatsoever,and have little to no memory of the visit.

WITH SEDATION DENTISTRY, YEARS OF NEGLECT CAN BE REVERSED IN A FEW HOURS.

With sedation dentistry, we can complete most of your dental care at one time. We can often do extended treatments in a couple of appointments, including:

OVER 150 PATIENTS SEEN IN ONE DAY!

Our first annual Dentistry From The Heart event was a huge success! On February 9, 2008, a team of volunteers, consisting of 4 dentists, 7 hygienists, and over 15 dental assistants worked from 5am-9:30pm to help the Orlando community. Dr. Hodgins organized the day of free dentistry for those in need, to help those that could not afford the most basic of dental care. The team provided services that included either a free teeth cleaning, filling, or tooth extraction on a first come first served basis. Word spread quickly about the day, and the patients actually camped out the night before the event. They traveled from as far away as West Palm Beach, and Tampa to take care of their dental needs. “It was an extremely emotional day. There were a lot of hugs and a few tears of joy and appreciation.” said Dr. Hodgins. The Dentist’s Studio understands the need to give back to the community, and will continue to hold the event durning the weekend before Valentines Day on an annual basis. Please check our website for more information regarding this year’s event and future events.
