What patients tell us the most is that they feel the most heard that they’ve ever felt coming here, that they really feel valued and that they trust that we’re listening, and that we are following through with what they need and what they want. We are not imposing what we think they need. Now, of course, if they asked our opinion, what we would do if it was our mouth, we would, of course, tell them, I always tell patients that I treat them like family and I wouldn’t do anything to them that wouldn’t do to my husband, my siblings, my kids. And that’s really true. And they feel it and know it.
So I knew I could trust Jana after my Invisalign experience, where she pulled it through to completion and made my teeth look dramatically different. And then after my Invisalign, we talked about some cosmetic dentistry, where we talked about veneers on my front two teeth. And the veneer process with Dr Jana was amazing.
I think if you would have asked me three years ago how I felt about dentistry, in general, how I felt about going to the dentist, if I would ever consider myself, you know, excited to come for, you know, a twice-a-year dental cleaning, I would have said absolutely not. Now that I’ve gone through everything and I’ve had everything taken care of, I do find myself actually getting excited to come in for the, you know, twice-a-year cleaning just because I know that I’m gonna be well taken care of.
A lot of people didn’t realize that I got Invisalign, one, because it was such a short period, and two, because my teeth weren’t, like, crazy, like, crooked or anything. But I noticed it, and I think that’s the biggest thing that matters is that, because you see your own teeth every day, so you’re gonna notice the little changes. Even if it shifts just a little bit, you know, I notice it.
And so, I had severe head pain, a lot of headaches, and I just thought it was stress. Just going through having TMJ and looking at it now, what I understand about it, at the time, I didn’t really realize that that was the problem. Number one thing is that the headaches are gone. I might get a stress headache, whatever, the normal I might have, but I don’t have the every-single-day headache like I used to have. I would wake up in the morning with a headache.
The girls and Dr Jana, they really do treat you like you’re important. You’re not just a number coming in and out. They call you afterwards to make sure everything’s okay. And their energy and their passion for what they’re doing is a big deal.
I would say, along with the people, the equipment, and the facility that they have here is what keeps me coming back. It’s always a good mood. They’re always happy to see you. And the people that Jana picks to work on you are very personable and make you feel good.
