I wanted to give you my testimony for the
orthodontic treatment experience I have received
through your office, Jefferson Dental. I first have to
say that I had many consults with several
orthodontists, dentists, and even a few oral surgeons
as my case was very extreme. I had a 7-8 mm overjet, a
Class II malocclusion, and a lower jaw that is
somewhat smaller than my upper jaw. Many doctors
recommended that I have orthonagthic surgery and most
recommended at least some teeth extraction. I was also
given a timeline of several years to be finished with
my case.
When I came to your office, I would have never even
considered metal braces but was going to give Viazzi
braces a try before giving up completely with braces.
I am glad to say now that Viazzi was the best choice I
have ever made. I was given a timeline of at least 2
years if I had worn regular metal braces or
Invisalign, but with Viazzi braces, I was able to
finish in only 8 months! Considering that I am over
18, that is even quicker than Viazzi's average claim
to finish in half the time of regular braces. Now I
have a Class I bite with almost no overjet, achieved
without any extractions or surgery. Most of all, I do
not have any TMJ symptoms as I did in the past. Dr
Shih was very conscientious about making sure that my
TMJ would not be exascerbated by my wearing the braces
and made sure I was never in any pain throughout these
last 8 months. He was always very patient and
explained everything to me as things were happening
with the wires, brackets, and powerchains. I think Dr
Shih should be doing Extreme Makeovers for ABC. It was
fast, easy, and painless and my teeth, gums, and roots
are healthy as well. Now I can go back to
acting/modeling and dating again!
Thanks Dr. Shih for being one of the best
orthodontists in the country and I am grateful and
very fortunate to have had the opportunity other
people only dream of!
See you at my next follow up,
Sincerely,
Susie V.
