“There’s more possible than you think… Life-transformations, I see those happen all the time” -DR. BENJAMIN POLAN
Are you a caterpillar?
Keep your head down, don’t look anybody in the eye, just do whatever you can to get through the day – caterpillars live in a constant state of anxiety worrying about themselves and their surroundings. I see many people suffer a blow to their confidence due to oral health problems, TMJ pain, sleep disorders, and issues with their appearance and so they crawl through life the same way caterpillars do. However, caterpillars have an incredible evolutionary trait. They undergo metamorphosis, becoming an entirely new creature and gaining a plethora of new abilities along with a beautiful new appearance. Sounds pretty great right?
Change happens when you want it
Most people never even realize the potential they contain to undergo their own metamorphosis, but I strive to be an innovative dentist who opens the door to a life-altering transformation for you as well. I use a combination of aesthetic and neuromuscular dentistry as the ‘cocoon’ or ‘chrysalis’ stage, carefully guiding your transformation in both function and appearance. Just like for the caterpillars, a process like this takes time, effort, and patience to get the right results.
Become a butterfly
The freedom a butterfly must feel when first taking off is precisely what I wish for my patients to experience when completing their treatment. Shedding any old anxiety allows the patient to look to the skies with their head held high and gain a confidence they may never have known existed. Whether you’re stuck as a caterpillar due to appearance issues, TMJ pain, oral health problems or a sleep disorder, the first step to your metamorphosis is getting a thorough examination. Please let me help you become a “butterfly”.
