Thank you, Dr. Garrett and Dr. Garrett (husband and wife) and Carolina Bright Smiles!!
Long post but so worth the read.
For my entire life, as long as I can remember, I have absolutely hated to smile. I have hidden my teeth, and have cried many, many tears through the years (many more than anyone in this world will ever know). Very hurtful things have been said, and even worse, were the things left unsaid but the looks said it all. I have smiled many fake smiles and unsure smiles because I really didn’t want to show my teeth. Even at 44 the words and the looks have affected me and haunt me still. My daughter was even picked on in elementary school for the way her mama’s teeth looked.
TODAY though, TODAY I cried tears for a very different reason because of my teeth.
TODAY, a dream came true. TODAY, I will start to smile because I WANT to smile. Today, is the start of a new me. A me that WANTS to smile, a me that will look at herself completely and totally in a mirror. Today I will no longer look at parts of my face in a mirror but I will look at myself completely and as a whole. Today was for me and sometimes it’s okay to do something for yourself, today was that day and I will have no guilt. This was a huge step but a very important one. Today was a day that will make me smile forever!!

Have had several crowns, numerous fillings, 2 root canals, and 3 wisdom tooth extractions done by the Dr. Garrett . Great results on all counts. And best of all, nearly painless. Dr. Garrett has extreme patience, taking whatever time is necessary to get a perfect fit and perfect look.
