"dentistry and the Stock Market!"
Patrice A. came in a few weeks ago with clear-eyed determination to upgrade her smile. And even when the recent up-and-down stock market days forced a few hasty delays-four rescheduled appointments!-the 42-year-old financial planner finally got the new smile she always wanted.
"I've been spending every day calming the nerves of my clients, but I still kept to my plan," she said. "More than ever, as the world can appear so uncertain, I want to make sure that I don't lose my perspective. I don't want to lose sight of my goals."
And so it was that the finance specialist this week sported a new look that began with a session to whiten her teeth, and a procedure to reshape her gum line. The final step concluded when she walked out of the office with eight exquisite porcelain veneers.
"It was just the mental lift she needed-and just the reassuring smile she needed-to continue her work with clients who are worried about their security," said Daniel J. Deutsch, DDS, at the Washington Center for Dentistry, in Washington, DC.
Dr. Deutsch notes the surprising and powerful draw of self-improvement-even in times of transition and change. He also reports that patients still are using their options with low-interest finance plans like Care Credit (www.carecredit.com).
The financial planner is not the only one to feel the pressure of the marketplace. Washington businessman, Randall Z., said he thought about putting off the start of his Invisalign invisible braces treatment. "But I decided that all tough times eventually turn around, and my teeth are not going to miraculously realign by themselves," said the 38-year-old high-tech executive.
Randall recently began wearing his first set of clear plastic trays, and he is on track to stick with his plan for whitening and, eventually, all-porcelain crowns.
"Life is short, and I know that my personal image affects my business success," he said. "I will need all of my best qualities to be in play in the challenging days ahead."
