From Multiple Worries to Total Confidence

Lester came to Dental Specialty Group with a desire to do something that would have long-term benefits. His teeth were in serious condition, many had fallen out, and his jawbone had deteriorated, which caused eating problems resulting in a lot of stomach discomfort. Traditional adhesive dentures were not his first, second, or third choice. Slipping dentures and all the embarrassment and hassle of wearing them for many years got him thinking about what else was out there.

As he found out more about dental implants from his general dentist Dr. Brannon, he started to seriously consider this advanced course of treatment. He wanted comfort and lifelike results. Before Lester came to Dental Specialty Group, his ability to chew food was terribly difficult. Choking down large pieces of food upset his stomach, and made eating out, which he liked to do, frustrating and very awkward. He needed and wanted a real change not just a stopgap solution that would have offered only a different set unpleasant issues to deal with.

Dr. Brannon suggested he visit us here at Dental Specialty Group in Nashville. He met with one of our oral surgeons, Dr. Tania Howlett, for an initial consultation. His next DSG appointment consisted of a complete oral health exam using the latest diagnostic dental technology. The dental implant treatment plan she developed after gathering Lester's health information, and the pleasant demeanor of the entire DSG team, gave him the confidence to get started.  

Lester explains in this dental implant video testimonial how his treatment positively changed his life from a health and overall perspective.

• In another video with six other DSG patients, Lester talks more about his dental implant treatment.

Just as Lester did, we encourage you to start a discussion with your family or general dentist. Collaboration with your dentist is the key to developing a complete dental health plan.
