Thanks for your comments about Lumineers

Filed under: Lumineers, Thank yous — iowasmiles @ 8:07 pm

Dear Dr. Hall,

I just read your “Lumineers cost“article at  and also the “example” question and answer which pertains to this topic and I was so pleased to read it. I write dental websites, and because of my familiarity with the dental world I have long been aware that Lumineers are not the best option available. I prefer not to write about them in favorable terms, but it is sometimes required as part of my job. I was pleased to read this direct and honest representation of Lumineers. In writing for dental websites, I have seen innumerable before and after images of Lumineers and of truly custom porcelain veneers, and the difference is almost always highly noticeable. While I cannot write website articles that warn individuals against Lumineers in a professional sense, I was very pleased to see that someone else has. Your article came up 3rd when I Googled “Lumineers.”

Because of the nature of my work, I prefer not to make my name available and would appreciate your discretion regarding my email address. However, I wanted to thank you for representing Lumineers as an option, but one which may have more negative than positive aspects.

I am amused to read your “hate mail section” - to find that dentists who are not willing to undergo the training which will allow them to do really great dental work are disparaging toward your article and email, and see it only as confirmation of their lack of interest in their patients’ welfare. Sincerely, &tc.

“L”

Dear “L”,
Thanks for your kind comments.

Dr Hall,

I don’t have a question, rather I wanted to thank you for putting together and maintaining this excellent web site on cosmetic dentistry. I am currently looking into getting some cosmetic dental work done, and your web site has been an invaluable resource. All the content is very well written, easy to follow, and extremely informative.

Thanks and keep up the good work,
-Joe from Boston

Joe,

A toast to Dr. Hall at a pub in Ireland

Filed under: Thank yous — iowasmiles @ 10:54 pm

Dear Dr. Hall,
I’m sure you are a very busy man, so I would like to thank you wholeheartedly for taking the time to reply to me. Your answer to my question about dry socket has done a lot to reassure me and help me calm down. I had been really worried about it.

My dentist has prescribed antibiotics, as you suggested.

Last night, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, in a quiet pub in Galway, your name was spoken and glasses raised to toast your good health. Go Raibh Maith Agat!

- Patrick in Ireland

Patrick,
Thanks. When people like you are so gracious and kind, it really warms my heart.
