Dear Dr. Miyasaki:
I cannnot thank you and your staff enough for the fabulous work you did in seeing me through my dental procedure. I am so grateful to have my confidence, self-esteem and most importantly-beautiful SMILE! I was fortunate to have the support of my husband Paul throughout my ordeal. back in December when all the teeth were removed I raelly had a hard time looking into the mirror. But, I could not turn back and had to move forward no matter what. It was hard getting used to the dentures at first but I gradually got accustomed to it and within time the adjustment was so much better. There are still some foods that I cannot eat because they will stick to the dentures but overall I’m doing well.
My dental problems started when I was 12 years old. Since that time I’ve never been back to the dentist until I got the courage to make an appointment to come into your office. Growing up, from elementary, intermediate and high school i never had any friends. The boys back hen called me “corroded.” I never did smile and when I’d talk sometimes I would over my mouth. Often, people could not understand my speech because I would not open my mouth wide enough so it was like the words were lost and I would have to repeat myself. It wasn’t until the teeth were falling out about two years ago that I knew I had to do something. I could not continue living the way I had but that was then.
Today, I smile more and a better person to be around. My husband has noticed how much more happier I am. So, with that said, thank you Dr Miyasaki for your patience and never makeing judgments and making me feel better.
Much Aloha
