"Your new tooth looks like a million bucks!"
This is exactly what a friend said to me recently. It has been a couple of months now and I'm still in shock - speechless and thankful!
Here's the scenario that started it off - hopefully, no one else will ever have this happen to them, but if it does, let this letter serve as a reminder of where you must go to get the resolution.
The bottom line in this is that I am very thankful to be a patient of Light Breeze Dental located at 2500 Alton Pkwy #203, in Irvine, CA 92606 for several years now.
Here's one of the reasons why: During the first week of October 2023, I bit into a piece of pizza like you normally do. In an instant, a front crown that had been placed decades ago unexpectedly broke and that's when reality quickly set in.
My concerns were further multiplied because the very next week, I was scheduled to begin speaking face-to-face with clients over the next several months, enrolling them in life and health insurance coverages for 2024.
I knew I was in big trouble since there was no way I was going to be able to function with a missing front tooth!
So, I called Light Breeze Dental and spoke to the office receptionist Diana. She was extremely attentive as I explained my predicament to her. This was on Thursday, October 5, 2023. She asked me if I could come into the office at 4:00 PM that day. I replied, "Absolutely!"
Diana was very professional yet was also caring and understanding of my exact situation at the same time.
At a little before 4:00, I arrived and sat in the waiting room for only a very short time when I was called to the back by Diana. She indicated the room where I took a seat in the dental chair.
Again, I didn't wait long until Dr. Nikolay Sky, DDS came in to examine my tooth (Or what was left of it).
I had met Dr. Nikolay Sky once or twice before but only briefly since my usual dentist was his wife, Dr. Zoya Sky, DDS. They are a "power couple" in the world of family dentistry!
So, I was unsure how everything was going to play out as I contemplated the various scenarios (In my limited knowledge) Dr. Sky may recommend gaining a resolution to the predicament I now found myself in.
He examined my tooth for a minute and casually announced that he could build the rest of a tooth over the base of the tooth that was left. I said, "Great!" I then cautiously asked him if I needed to make another appointment, simultaneously hoping I wouldn't have to go on for much longer with a missing tooth.
To my utter surprise, Dr. Nikolay Sky told me that he could accomplish the repair right then, late on a Thursday afternoon! The Light Breeze Dental office is closed on Fridays, so this was truly amazing to me - and I was very, very thankful, to say the least.
Before I knew it, the procedure began with Dr. Sky's assistant, Alicia, assisting him. What a great lady Alicia is! I met her many times during my visits to the dental office as she routinely assists both Dr. Skys.
Dr. Sky and Alicia worked perfectly together and all I did was keep my mouth open wide so they could do their best work. And their BEST work, they certainly did!
The dentist and his assistant barely spoke to each other during the entire procedure, which was in itself amazing. They were like a highwire act, working with complete precision and confidence.
My story and great experience with both Drs. Sky, Alicia, Diana, and the entire Light Breeze Dental Office team are still as fresh today as they were a couple of months ago.
And to have my friend unequivocally state that my new tooth looks like a million bucks put the proverbial "icing on the cake" and made me feel like a "million bucks!"
Thank you, Dr. Nikolay Sky, DDS, Dr. Zoya Sky, DDS & Light Breeze Dental!
