| - It's one thing to wait until you're in your mid-30's to want to make some crazy changes about yourself. You get kind of obsessed with aging gracefully. It's a whole 'nother situation of crazy when you decide to get Braces at 35+ ---- (insert mysterious music) dum dum dum... In comes what I call, the "mid mid-life crisis".
Not sure what I was thinking. I looked at my smile after I did a photo-shoot and I said... "Hmmm.. I want to fix my smile". 2 weeks later, I had FULL on teen-aged braces on my teeth. Only a person in the "mid mid-life crisis" could come up with something like this and have it implemented in 2 weeks!
So, if you're reading this review and you're over 30, and you are wondering about your own "mid mid-life" crisis, let me tell ya a little about Dr Curtis to help speed you along! ;-)
I interviewed several orthodontists, even my regular dentist who also does Invisalign, However, Dr Allen Curtis won me completely over after my consultation with him. I went in for my consultation, they took 3-D images of my teeth and then systematically showed me how he was going to move my teeth. I asked a lot of questions and he answered them and I was comfortable and happy with all the answers. Most importantly, I was comfortable with his timeline for the treatment. See, when you are leaning on door number 40 so hard you can hear the hinges squeak, time is very important. He didn't quote an obnoxiously short period of time or suggest I do damage to my other teeth to get things to work in my timeline. He understands the adult patient's needs and desires. And for that, he won my trust... and my business.
The staff? Professional, gentle, knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Curtis is also such a great doctor to visit. Visiting his office is always a WIN-WIN situation!! Dr. Curtis is like the Wizard of Ortho, he has the coolest toys in his office! This office has modern amenities that make me want to live in this office versus visiting it. The free Wi-Fi, iPad in the lobby, video games, the 3-D imaging, and that CRAZY geeked out sound-system! Even his consultation office is awesome!
My only "needs improvement" at this point is how well this office works with other offices that are also in on my treatment plan. The two offices must communicate with each other behind the scenes so that my visits to the 2nd dentist is not confusing or wasted time. There were some hiccups there I attributed to Curtis's office. If this improves in the future, I will definitely update
I'm still a patient (8 months in), so I'll have to update my review at the end of my treatment.
We're off to see the Dentist and The Wizard of Ortho is in the office and IT IS ALL GOOD over here in the mid-life!
