LONNNNG REVIEW, LONNNNG OVERDUE…read more
First of all, I have to say that I should have written this review probably more than a year ago. I blame ADHD.
The truth is, I absolutely LOVE Dr. Yar. He and his staff are all so very kind, gentle, have delightful senses of humor, and they were very quick to make me feel so comfortable in their care. Every appointment, even the painful ones, have had me leaving quite contentedly and in a great mood.
Most importantly, Dr. Yar has transformed my smile in a way that I had only dreamed of, for years, and never ever thought possible.
I was an extreme case to begin with. My family has a genetic condition that had plagued me and left me a depressed, and extremely self conscious about my smile for my entire life. I would hide my teeth in social settings, and photos, trying hard to ONLY give that closed-mouth Mona Lisa smile while everyone else smiled widely and openly. I worried what people thought when I had accidentally smiled too big, and my teeth were shown. When I laughed, I used to cover my mouth, just in case. It was so bad, that I was often bullied about my teeth. People can be so cruel, sometimes, ya know?
There were also plenty of times that I had cried from the pain that my breaking teeth had caused throughout the years. It got so bad at times, I would often tell my loved ones that I would choose to go through childbirth again, rather than experiencing this pain.
Before I met with Dr. Yar, I had been to another dentist that pulled all of my upper teeth and gave me a top denture. I was desperate for the pain to be relieved, and I had hoped that in the end, I would be able to smile again. Alas, the appliance I ended up receiving was horribly designed! The teeth were tiny, misshapen, and didn't even let me eat properly. I was told this was the best they could do for me, and I tried so hard to be thankful, to be happy just to not have my natural upper teeth causing me the pain issues anymore... but the confidence I had hoped to gain, never came.
I didn't think I would have the chance to fix what had been done. I solemnly accepted my fate for years. Until the time came that I needed my (still natural) lower teeth to also be pulled, and get a bottom denture.
Of course I was not going to go back to the previous dentist that had not been able to deliver the standard I needed, which lead me to search for someone to help me achieve what I really wanted all along.
Dr. Yar designed a plan for me that changed everything.
Yes, he took away the pain, but what I didn't expect was how happy I would be in the end.
He gave me an "all on four" implant supported lower denture, and a completely new upper denture. Admittedly, It cost a lot of money, but I knew that this was highly important to me.
Guess what? No more pain. No more fear of showing my smile. I say this without any bit of exaggeration: My life has been changed. I get compliments now, for the first time ever, about how beautiful my smile is. I don't shy away from laughing without covering my mouth. I eat without worrying that I am going to suddenly be in excruciating pain, and I can look in the mirror without hating to see my smile now.
Thank you, Dr. Yar. Thank you for everything you've done for me. Thank you to all of your staff as well. I am so grateful to have been able to trust you. If I could have seen you before I went to that first dentist, I would have!
TLDR: If you feel down about your dental health, the appearance of your smile, or you have been experiencing trouble with pain, THIS is your guy. I highly recommend that you see Dr. Yar. He transformed me. Give him a chance!
