May 6, 2010 - Meeting
Some of the treatments he showed to us were: porcelain veneers; crowns and onlays; bridges; implants; and teeth whitening. With the limited time of ten minutes he did a good job of explaining to us " non dentists" what kinds of things he does and how it changes the lives of his patients.
A list of the insurances he accepts are at: Insurance Plans
During May in honor of Mother's Day, Highland Heights Dental will donate a smile makeover to a survivor of breast cancer. This includes veneers and/or crowns in order to restore the smile of one who has suffer from the disease.
Dr Craig Smith started this program three years ago with his mother-in-law, Kris L. who is a survivor of breast cancer for 14 years. In 2007, he reconstructed her upper smile and continued with the lower the following year. She has since contracted stage 4 metastatic cancer and is currently stable though things are uncertain.
Since the makeover, she enjoys smiling and is happy with the change. For this reason, it was decided to extend this offer to others. Another reason is to raise awareness. The medication that has kept his mother-in-law healthier was discovered by research funded by the Susan B Komen Foundation. If funding helped discover that remarkable medication, someday a cure might be found before the 50 percent probability of affecting his wife and daughter.
Thank you to those who nominated a survivor or included themselves. Congratulations to Ginny for winning the makeover in 2009. We plan on continuing our tradition of a complimentary smile makeover to a survivor of breast cancer in the Salt Lake Valley and surrounding counties.
The nomination process for 2010 has started. Please make your nominations before May 31, 2010. Visit the www.survivorbrightsmiles.com for addition information. You can see our survivor's change at our facebook page or in the survivor gallery.
