It’s that time of year when we start to think about what we want to change. Many common New Year’s resolutions include getting more exercise, losing weight, or starting a new hobby.
How about getting your confidence back with a new smile?
Thanks to Kevin Gasser, D.D.S., and the team at Gasser Dental, patients’ lives are transformed every year with custom dental implant solutions and the best combination of quality, experience, comfort, care, and price.
“Most patients come to us for full smile restorations,” says Dr. Gasser, adding that their motives range from personal to professional and overall health.”
He says some patients miss eating the foods they enjoy. For others, missing teeth and periodontal disease interfere with their healthy body image, causing social isolation and thinking poorly of themselves. Bad teeth make many patients reluctant to smile. Others want to show off a new smile at a special event.
“People come to us with broken and missing teeth and, along with that, they also have broken and missing self-confidence,” Dr. Gasser says. “Often, they’re ashamed of their teeth, so they won’t smile or laugh. They even choose to miss social events to hide their smiles.”
Despite the multiple personal, professional, and health difficulties, patients delay their dental care because of fear, explains Dr. Gasser. “We’re nonjudgmental, and our patient’s comfort is top of mind,” he says to ease any doubts.
“When I do my exam, these patients will often say things like, ‘I bet I’m the worst you’ve ever seen. Please don’t judge me. I am so embarrassed.’ The day we restore their smile, we see their entire personality change,” Dr. Gasser says. “Most react with excitement. Others are in disbelief that they now have a beautiful smile. Some even respond with overwhelming tears of joy. It only gets better from there. We see patients start excelling in life by trying and taking on new endeavors.”
Saving Smiles and Self-Confidence for Decades
Dr. Gasser has been serving the community for nearly 30 years, making him one of the most experienced dental implant experts in Arizona. During decades in private practice, he dedicated himself to advanced education and training with an emphasis on mastering the latest dental implant techniques available in Arizona.
The All-on-4® treatment concept is one of those advanced systems. Gasser Dental has been a leader in providing the patented All-on-4® — a full arch of teeth on just four implants placed in only one day — for over 15 years.
“The concept is designed to be a cost-effective and natural-looking solution for patients who are missing all or most of their natural teeth,” explains Dr. Gasser. “A positive outcome is the norm for our patients. We use IV sedation for our dental procedures, making them comfortable during the procedure.”
Recently, Dr. Gasser was awarded the Nobel Biocare Center of Excellence Award, an honor given to only 300 doctors in North America. The Center of Excellence distinction ensures a patient can select a practitioner who has the necessary surgical experience and training to offer the All-on-4® treatment concept. A patient can also be assured that their Nobel Biocare implants are authentic and backed by a lifetime warranty.
Dr. Gasser is also recognized for his TV program “Changing Lives One Smile at a Time” on local cable TV and being featured on ABC15’s Sonoran Living, the Valley’s original local lifestyle program.
“We so appreciate all our patients and the Phoenix area for allowing us to be No. 1 in the Valley,” he says.
Gasser Dental: Cutting-Edge, Custom, Quality
To ensure the best outcome for patients, Dr. Gasser stays up to date on the latest dental advancements, research, and technology.
In 2022, Gasser Dental expanded its practice to include a new surgical suite and conference room to keep up with its continued growth. Additionally, it added new technology and equipment to make things more convenient for patients.
“We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to dental plans,” Dr. Gasser says. “We customize treatment plans that are specific to each patient’s needs.”
Dr. Gasser also believes not all implants are equal. “The implants and products we use for our smile restorations are of top quality,” he says. “Our special protocol for smile restorations is tried and true, and we have a 98% implant success rate.”
Happy New Year, Happy New Teeth
The best thing about 2022, Dr. Gasser says, is the positive effect customized treatment plans made on patients. “They’re happy being able to enjoy the foods they previously couldn’t chew. They have more confidence, look younger, and smile a whole lot more now that they have the beautiful smile they always wanted.
“We’re looking forward to continuing to help people regain their self-esteem in 2023. I can’t wait to be a part of new patients’ success stories, and we’ll continue to offer only the very best materials, procedures, compassion, and professionalism in the industry.”
As a special offer to Upper Westsider readers, Gasser Dental is offering $2,000 off a full-mouth restoration.
