Barbara Henderson – Thank you Mom for Taking Care of Me
Today’s mom reminds me of the superhero Wonder Woman! Juggling kids and spouse schedules, home responsibilities and work, leaves little time for mom herself. So often I hear in my dental office “oh please take care of the kid’s dental needs first”. This attitude of caring for others first is very noble, but not fair for women who truly need dental care themselves. I encourage these super moms to care for both their children and their own needs. We as parents must lead by example and show our children that dental health is important and not to be feared.
Wanting to show appreciation and gratitude to her mom for always putting others first, Terra decided to give her mom a beautiful thank you gift – a smile makeover. Growing up in Virginia, Terra saw her mom Barbara, devoting all of her time into

raising her and putting others needs before her own. When her mom moved to Florida and began having dental problems, Terra encouraged her to finally take care of herself. Terra wanted to use her knowledge as a former dental assistant and now a dental office manager and be involved in selecting a dentist for her mom. Barbara decided to take matters into her own hands and find a dentist on her own. Though the Yellow Pages and internet initially led Barbara to me. She knew she was at the right place when she drove up to the office and saw the “beautiful golden columns at the Fountain of Youth”. As a child Barbara told me she was often sick and felt now healthy teeth were very important to her overall physical and mental health. To accomplish this, a team approach needed to be taken. Her daughter flew down to meet me and the staff and then we all agreed upon a plan to give Barbara a beautiful, healthy smile. Working with Barbara’s schedule, which now involved caring for her elderly mom, the treatment took several months. Her full mouth reconstruction involved the placement of dental implants to replace the areas of missing teeth and crowns and bridges to restore the function and beauty that she had lost years before.
Today Barbara, a writer, is also working towards becoming a lifestyle coach – helping people to maintain their self-esteem while they are going through changes in their life. She certainly does live by example. Today she is vibrant and healthy. In her words, “it is so important to find joy in one’s self, spirit, and the world”. Thank you Terra for giving your mom such a wonderful gift! |

Mark Hanisee
This was a big political year for everyone. For Mark Hanisee, a political consultant, fundraiser, strategist, and employee benefit consultant, it was even bigger and better. Mark is in the helping people business where his appearance and the confidence he portrays are very important. Today he is exuberant and positive and makes us laugh when he calls Dr. Lieberman a “rock star”. Most of his life he had a poor smile with dark, worn teeth. While feeling great photographed in his pin striped suit he rarely smiled and showed his teeth. Finally disgusted and ready to improve his teeth and health, Mark did his research and asked everyone he knew in his professional circles where he should go. |

Dr. Lieberman’s name came up enough for him to get the motivation to call and begin his journey. After meeting Mark and seeing how outgoing and personable he was we knew we had to do a great job getting him back his smile. At the initial visit we did a comprehensive exam. We took necessary x-rays, photographs, study models and discussed his wants and needs. With the use of beautiful, natural looking, lab processed porcelain crowns and veneers we were able to restore Mark’s bite, health, smile, and confidence. Over the course of several months we helped Mark overcome his dental fear and anxiety and achieved what he came in for – a natural and confident smile.
Now when representing political leaders and businessmen he walks and talks with an air of pride. He is often amazed at the number of times he is complimented about his beautiful smile. Even most recently the owner of a large dental lab complimented his smile.
In these economic times it may not be possible for everyone to give themselves the smile makeover Mark did however; there is a lot that can be done easily and affordably. We can phase the length of treatment or offer alternative suggestions (i.e. teeth whitening, white composite fillings or removable crown and bridge). It is our goal to help every patient achieve his dream large or small
