I recently had the pleasure of working with Kelly Pittman, Mrs. Georgia 2009 to redesign her smile. We did a smile makeover for Kelly with porcelain veneers, and I’m sure that you would agree that she looks absolutely stunning! She’s a great lady and an amazing spokeswoman for The WIN Foundation. Â Kelly will compete in the Mrs. Globe Competition in 2010 in Anaheim California, and I hope that her smile gives her that winning edge. Â Major kudos to Curt Littlecott from Nu Visions in Photography for taking this incredible photo. Â Curt was recently voted one of the best photographers in the world.

Dr. Zach Hodgins, an Orlando dentist, is often asked about the safety of Mercury fillings that patients have in their mouths. While mercury fillings are still approved by the American Dental Association, Dr. Hodgins recognizes the hazards of this material, and has not used this material ever in his professional career. Many people do not realize the “silver” amalgam fillings are 50% mercury. In fact, a large mercury filling may contain as much mercury as a thermometer.
Dr. Zach Hodgins, an Orlando Mercury Free Dentist, is a recognized leader in Dentistry. He practices mercury free dentistry. He offers patients a safe and easy way to remove their mercury fillings from their mouths.
Dr. Hodgins is a member of the IAOMT
, and utilizes mercury removal protocols established by the IAOMT, The International Association of Oral Medicine and Toxicology. (more…)
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.

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.
