• The Average Persons Top 3 Considerations When Selecting A Cosmetic Dentist

  April 22nd, 2013

  People who are deciding on which dentist to trust for a cosmetic dentistry procedure have consistently listed the following as their top three criteria:

  1. Post-graduate training in cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry.
  2. Extensive experience in performing cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry.
  3. Genuine compassion and sincerity.

  Perhaps this is why so many people have placed their trust in Dr. Bret Davis of Smile Texas.

  Dr. Bret Davis has been following his passion and perfecting his skills in cosmetic dentistry for over a decade.  He has studied extensively at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies.  This stand-alone facility is considered the gold standard for post-graduate training in the highly technical areas of cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry.  Dr. Davis was one of the youngest dentists ever to complete the LVI curriculum and earn a fellowship status.  He then went on to instruct at Indiana State University Dental Residency while also maintaining a private practice.  Dr. Davis is also a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry.  This distinction is achieved by fewer than 1% of practicing dentists.

  Dr. Davis has put all his training to good use by placing literally thousands of all-porcelain restorations.  His training in proper bite alignment not only assures that a smile by Dr. Davis will look great, but it will last too!  In fact, we are so confident in the work of Dr. Davis that each of his cases comes with a Last Time You Pay policy.

  Finally, Dr. Davis embodies the attitude of genuine compassion and sincerity that instills a sense of confidence in his patients.  All of his efforts to be the very best cosmetic and reconstructive dentist possible stem from his desire to give his patients the very best treatment.

  In just one meeting with Dr. Davis you will know that you are in the right place.

• Your Favorite Olympic Memories

  August 30th, 2012
  

  The Summer Olympics have come and gone.  It will be 4 long years before they show up again in Rio de Janeiro.  I am always surprised how caught up in the excitement I get.  It’s not just the really popular sports, either.  While I love the swimming and the gymnastics and the track and field, I am fascinated by the BMX bicycle races, archery, and fencing.  What was your favorite Olympic memory?

  • Was it that the USA won more gold medals and more overall medals than any other country?  And that is not politically incorrect.  Our athletes compete under our flag.
  • Was it how the Brits got a healthy dose of American-like mojo and won more medals than they had ever before?
  • How about Michael Phelps becoming the most decorated Olympic athlete ever?
  • Didn’t you love the shy and retiring Usain Bolt winning the “fastest man” yet again?
  • Another special moment was marathoner Stephen Kiprotich who won the gold medal for Uganda on the last day of the Olympic Games.  Uganda had never before won an Olympic medal.  Can you imagine how proud he is?  And how proud his countrymen are of him?
  • The Opening Ceremonies are always spectacular and this year’s was no exception.  The queen parachuting into Olympic Stadium was just a hoot.  She was quite the good sport for participating in that.

  I could add dozens more examples and I’m sure you have favorites that I’ve missed.  But it will be four long years before more Summer Olympic memories will be made.  Or, on the bright side it’s only about 18 months until the Winter Games begin in Sochi, Russia.  I can’t wait for the skating, the snowboarding, the curling…

  My very favorite Olympic memory?  All those gold medal winning smiles.
