Dear Dr. Swoverland:

I have had problems with my teeth my entire life. I am sure that no one has had as many dental visits as I have had in my life. Due to these visits (experienced in another country) I developed a very serious dental phobia. I remember running from the dentist's waiting room more than once while waiting for my appointment. It was a vicious circle. If you are scared of and avoid dentists, you need them much more.

When I was younger I was a professional model. After every dental operation, I became photogenically worse. I even started to avoid showing up for my family pictures. I lost weight, developed digestion problems, chewing problems, headaches and had unbalanced and misshapen jaws. By a year ago I had totally lost my self-confidence and had become a totally unsociable person.

I think the day I met Dr. Swoverland and his wife has been one of my luckiest days. Dr. Swoverland helped me to get rid of my dental phobia like a therapist. His team members' professionalism and their kind, friendly and compassion&te manner, his office's ambience and hygiene, lets you know that he is a doctor that knows and loves his profession. You feel like you are in secure hands. After these experiences, I am saying (as a dental expert) that Dr. Swoverland is the BEST. He is really a perfectionist, working with an artist's particularity. Here is the result! Look at me! My teeth have never looked this natural before! I can smile freely! I don't have one picture while smiling this much, including my modeling photos. Dr. Swoverland did not give me just a smile; he gave me a life and a future. Now I am ready for life. I cannot find any words to express my appreciation to Swoverland Dentistry. I love you and may God save and bless you.

Best regards,
