All of the upper teeth were restored with porcelain fused to gold crowns.

"SMILE - You're on candid camera!!! A familiar slogan many years ago but I would not smile for any camera. I was very uncomfortable smiling due to my dental problems. As I grew older and could have had these problems corrected, I thought "Why do this at my age?"

Then I became a patient of Dr. Tom DeLopez and he helped me to see that it would make a big difference in my confidence and outlook to have these corrections made. And it really has!!

Two years ago my three boys (grown men) wanted to have a portrait made of the three of them and me. Before, I would have said a definite NO but I had enough confidence to go ahead with the picture. It is something that I really treasure.

So - Thank You Dr. DeLopez for helping me to enrich these 'later years.' By the way, I am eighty (80) years old. You can see that it is never too late to make changes. "
