“I’ve got my smile back”- boxer received dental implant surgery that gave him a brand new smile in just one day

“You’ve put a smile back on my face and you’ve given me my confidence back”

-

A warm smile can communicat­e a lot; it tells others that we are happy, it reassures those around us, and it communicat­es trustworth­iness and compassion. With researcher­s at the University of Kansas claiming that smiling can even trick our brains into being happier, having a set of pearly whites that we are proud of and are happy to show off, has never been more important. However, many people in the UK are living with unstable teeth, gum disease, or bone loss in the mouth, and some are struggling to fix the problem effectivel­y and quickly.

This is why Marc Northover and Suresh Chohan at Changing Faces Dentistry are working to combat the issue with a new solution, Same Day Teeth - which offers impressive new arches of natural-looking teeth, securely held in place using dental implants.

With practices in both Harborne, Birmingham, and Knowle, Solihull, the pair have been delighting patients with full jaw dental implants for many years, and they have supported each other, as well as their patients, on their mission of making the perfect smile accessible to the masses.

Marc is an award-winning clinical dental technician who has been hand-crafting dental bridges for implants for over 25 years. He applies his skills meticulous­ly to create truly lifelike sets of teeth that enable patients to chew, bite and talk naturally.

As an experience­d implant dentist holding a Masters in Implant Dentistry, Suresh is highly proficient in full jaw implantolo­gy, taking on complex cases and providing patients with life-changing results. He places the implants which securely hold Marc’s crafted sets of fixed teeth in position.

Dr. Suresh Chohan, the principal implant surgeon at Changing Faces, said: “We combine our skills to create smiles that are really lifelike“.

“We believe in a holistic approach that truly cares for our patients and their aspiration­s, ensuring that they get a result that suits their individual needs. It is never too late to see us - even if you have not seen a dentist in many years, have been told you don’t have enough bone for implants, have a dental phobia, or you feel your teeth have gone too far to be saved.”

Like any cosmetic surgery, dental implant surgery is an invasive procedure and is not risk-free or a solution to personal problems. Always seek independen­t medical advice and give the procedure careful considerat­ion before going ahead. And results may vary depending on the age and health of the person.

Shaun Cooper from Dudley, whose teeth had suffered after the effects of a profession­al boxing career, decided to take the plunge and contact Marc and Suresh for help. He said: “The problem started occurring when I’d had 16 profession­al fights. All of the sparring I’ve done over the years - it’s a lot of rounds of pounding that my mouth has taken - it took its toll. I had to have three dentures on the bottom, and it was a case of, take them out eat some food, glue them back in. I felt my smile had gone. “I felt like I was 50, well I felt older than 50 to be fair. I wasn’t confident. It was time to get them (his teeth)

sorted, I just wanted to find a dentist that could give me a smile back, and that’s why I made the phone call.” Shaun asked if he could visit for a free consultati­on, and was able to go in and discuss his options with the team, he said: “They were very polite, very profession­al, and we went from there.”

The team explained to Shaun exactly what would happen during the procedure, what the effects would be, and what would change, so he was well prepared for the day. Although he was nervous about the procedure, he was also excited, and described the day as a ‘life change’.

One of the selling points for Shaun was the fact that Marc and Suresh took the time to make him feel comfortabl­e, and build a trusting, and enjoyable relationsh­ip with him. He said: “I had good craic with them all the way through the day. for the time I was there with them. I don’t think they could believe how happy I was going through it the treatment.

“When I walked out and saw myself in the mirror, I smiled, and I thought ‘you’ve definitely changed my face, you’ve put a smile back on my face and you’ve given me my confidence back.’to be fair, I could have cried but I wouldn’t because there were too many people there.” Shaun joked.

“Driving back, I’ve never looked in the mirror so much. It was like my life had started again. I got back and I had lamb chops with mashed potatoes peas and gravy, and I can remember eating it. It was food I hadn’t eaten in years, and I enjoyed every bit.

“I can eat what I want, I can do what I want, I can smile when I want, I can be at the front of any photo, smiling. It is Life changing - definitely.”
