Rick Testimonial | Full Mouth Reconstruction

Wednesday, January 12th, 2011

My name is Rick.  I had full mouth reconstruction, including all new veneers.  If you saw the before & after pictures, you would be amazed at what Dr. Carson did with my mouth!   It changed my whole life.  The difference between a dentist and a dental hygenist?  I can’t even explain the difference because it is completely different.  I went to several dentists for years, but this is a totally different experience. Makes me not mind coming to the dentist at all anymore.

The procedure was about a 6 to 8 month process.  There was very little pain involved and it was amazing what they could do in that short of time.  I smile a lot more now and a lot more confident.  Before, I was hiding my smile because my teeth were just a mess, but now I get compliments constantly like “wow, you have beautiful teeth.”

Mike Testimonial | Porcelain Veneers

Wednesday, January 5th, 2011

My name is Mike.  In the other dentists I have been to over the years, it has always appeared to be the same type of office.  Dr. Carson’s practice has the latest technology, they go out of their way to make you feel very comfortable, whether it is a drink of water, music, or television.  They always seem to be on the cutting edge of what techniques are out there.

I have been coming to Westlake Dental Arts for three years now. I have heard the horror stories of drilling and what not, but my experience here was very painless and comfortable.  Well the veneer work I had done was actually a present for my wedding that my wife did for me.  The whole process just took a couple of hours. There was no hard recovery.  The office is a very comfortable atmosphere.  Originally, I had a gap between my two front teeth, but now I have 4 new porcelain teeth that looks fabulous!

I am no longer self conscious of my smile, so for face to face meetings, it certainly helps!  Both the whiteness and the smile.

Lane Testimonial | Inlays

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

My name is Lane.  I have been to other dentists besides Dr. Carson. I have never enjoyed the dentist.  Notoriously, my teeth are very susceptible to cavities.  It has always been a very difficult day and involvement. Dr. Carson’s office is simply a pleasure.  I like coming here.  I arrive at my appointments early because it is fun to talk to the girls who work here, they have great coffee and snacks.  It is funny because in the past, you always want to brush your teeth as much as possible before going to the dentist, but here one of the hygenists told me, “no, no, no, don’t brush.  I really enjoy a challenge when I’m cleaning the teeth” after I just had a handful of trail mix.   Everyone is so nice.   You can get a nice decaffeinated, relax in the chair, listen to music, there is nice energy, and it is actually really fun.

I’ve done everything from a basic cleaning to fillings and inlays. She replaced a lot of old, big silver fillings, and gold crowns with porcelain.  So now, I am much less subconscious.  I have a very big mouth and my whole job is about talking so I am happy I do not see a big silver bottom part of my jaw. So the mouth does look a lot better, I have to say!

Jared Testimonial | PPM

Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010

My name is Jared. I found out about the PPM through Dr. Carson.  She called me one day and told me about this great information she had and told me to look into it and it was pretty incredible.  So first she brought me in and showed me some information on CD: some demos that were done by the guy who created it.  It seemed pretty great.  Then, from that point, I came in and did some tests and that is how it started. Before this, I was using a night guard because I grind my teeth.  Now that I have the PPM, I use it for everything! It is pretty neat. I think this was worth the time and money to get it done.

I own my own personal training company. The athletes I think would get the most benefit from it, but regular people can use it as well. Basketball players to football players to golfers, I think everyone can find some use for it.  I’ve noticed my strength gain has gotten better since using it.  So, I am able to do 1 and 2 more reps where before I would fail.  It has helped me gain in confidence in doing things I wasn’t able to do before.

Janette Testimonial

Wednesday, December 8th, 2010

My name is Janette D. I had meningitis a while back and actually during that time, it was in 2003, I was incubated and they knocked my 2 front teeth out.  So it started with bonding and keep those 2 front teeth.  So, I came and Dr. Carson didn’t try to sell me anything, she just said “this might be something you want to look into” and it just went from having my jaw move to getting caught into the fact that I could get all of my teeth done.  I have had every single tooth replaced in my mouth.  I was really scared coming into it because I always hear these horror stories of how you are going to have these little half teeth and that it can be really painful.  That wasn’t my experience at all!  I felt really at home and really well coached, I felt I was educated about the whole process the whole way through.  It was a very slow process. It felt very preventative rather than just slapping veneers on.  So, I really felt like it was a systemic change, not just a “I want to look nice” change.  I smile a lot more. I definitely feel a lot younger.  I feel as if my teeth match my personality now.   Everyone thinks that getting your teeth done is painful for some reason.  I thought that if I was going to get my teeth replaced that it would be really painful  and a hard process, I was really surprised that it wasn’t.

Everyone is obviously really friendly and I feel really cared about here.

Jane Testimonial

Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

My name is Jane K. I have quite a problem where I had former caps and they were beginning to wear away, you could see aluminum. I was really in trouble of losing my teeth, plus it looked so awful.  You know, I have been with another practice for a long time, it was fine and nothing major occurred, but I had just heard so much about Dr. Carson and her expertise with cosmetic dentistry.  I know I needed some restorative dentistry work on my top teeth and I had just heard about some amazing things about her. When I met Dr. Carson, I knew I was in the right place.  I had about 3 or 4 visits during my procedure, and most work was done within a day.  It was so easy working with Dr. Carson and Maria; they make you laugh all of the time and it is fun to be here.  I don’t remember coming to Dr. Carson as a hardship, they are such a family.  Choosing to get work done is a decision and an investment, but it is the best investment in one’s self for your self esteem and your health.  She gives you all the tools you need. Before I even had the restoration, she sent me home with the water pic device and it is just amazing the tools that she has.  She did such a beautiful job.  Again, I used to put my hand over my mouth, it bothered me more than I ever realized.  So, I had my smile back. It was really a gift.

Helen Testimonial | Ventura County Full Mouth Reconstruction | Westlake Dental Arts

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

Helen.  Around 2002 is when I met Dr. Carson. She is the best. Form the beginning I told her that I would follow her everywhere. When she moved, I came with her.  My teeth needed a little work, especially my front teeth.  She did a a really good job on my front teeth and I feel really good about it.  I always feel confident in her work.

The work I got done is permanent, they need to look good and be perfect– it needs to look natural.   You could not be in better hands then with Dr. Carson.  I am glad I switched and had my dental work done by her.
