Snap-on Smile Still a Popular Choice at JFK Dental Care

By Barry Dubin, D.D.S. on February 24, 2010

After ABC local channel 6 featured Dr. Barry Dubin and JFK Dental Care on a health segment about Snap-on Smile, we received many calls and emails from people who couldn’t wait to find out if this fantastic new dental appliance was right for them. That was way back in December, but surprisingly, we are still getting almost as many calls 2 months later. It was news that resonated with a large population of the public. It just goes to show that lots of people are really unhappy with their teeth – or lack thereof.

Snap-on Smile is a dental appliance that can be worn right over your existing and missing teeth. It is made of a thin plastic material that “snaps” securely on over whatever teeth you have. Obviously, people without any teeth at all cannot wear it but it is great for those who currently have a removeable partial denture to replace some missing teeth. Snap-on Smile can be worn on both the lower and upper teeth and the cost is very reasonable – $1500 for each arch – about the same as for a partial.

With Snap-on Smile, though, you get so much more. A partial denture does nothing to beautify the rest of your smile. It just replaces teeth and gives the wearer better function. Of course, one looks better without missing teeth, but the existing teeth will still be yellow, crooked, or mishapen. Snap-on Smile not only replaces the missing teeth but also covers the existing not-so-pretty teeth with a beautiful white smile. Its a whole make-over in your hand. Just snap it into place and get a gorgeous smile.

Of course, some dentists have actually used this same technique to make vampire fangs for fans of Twilight. You can practically get any shape or color you want. Instead of movie star beautiful, you can be Night of the Living Dead creepy. Most of us, however, prefer white and gorgeous.

Dr. Barry Dubin featured on ABC TV with Snap-On-Smile

By Barry Dubin, D.D.S. on December 23, 2009

Dr. Barry Dubin of JFK Dental Care was the subject of a Special Report that aired on the local 11:00 pm news on ABC TV, Channel 6 on Monday night, December, 21, 2009. The report covered one of our patients, Marcella Crawley, getting a Snap-On-Smile, the revolutionary new way to get a beautiful smile without braces or extensive dental work.

A reporter from Channel 6 approached Dr. Dubin back in the summer about this new technique. Apparently, she had received some press releases about Snap-On-Smile and thought it would make an interesting story and provide viewers with valuable and useful information. She then contacted the makers of Snap-On-Smile to find out what dentists in the Delaware Valley were experienced in this procedure. They gave her Dr. Dubin’s name.

When she came to interview us and ask if we had a patient that she could follow through the process, she got more than she bargained for with Miss Crawley. Marcella , a lovely woman with a personality and heart to match, had a great story to tell about waiting for a beautiful smile before getting married. And we were thrilled to be able to help Marcella. On the day she got her new smile, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.

Marcella’s story featuring JFK Dental Care and Dr. Barry Dubin will be available for viewing on the ABC 6 website, http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi for at least a month. Just go to Special Reports, Dental Appliance to view the video and transcript of the report, or click on the link below.

As explained in the story, Snap-On-Smile is a removable appliance that fits right over your own teeth to give you a beautiful smile without drilling, adhesives, needles, or any invasive dental treatment. We just take molds of your own teeth, send them out to the lab, get them back in about 2 weeks, snap them onto your teeth, and off you go with a life-changing new look. It couldn’t be easier or more affordable. You’re heard stories about the many thousands of dollars people have spent on complex cosmetic dental work but for less than $3000 you can have a great smile, too. Give us a call today for a free Snap On Smile consultation.

Philadelphia general dentist, Dr. Barry Dubin, brings life back to patient’s smile!

By Barry Dubin, D.D.S. on July 30, 2008

Abdullah came in a bit afraid to show his teeth. Dr. Dubin commended him for taking the next step to restore his mouth now – finding a dentist who cares about him and his teeth and gums. General Dentistry, preventative maintenance and treating minor decay before it becomes sever, is important to continue JFK Dental Care’s goal for a healthy, beautiful smile in every patient. Dr. Dubin did just that for Abdullah. Abdullah had not been to the dentist in quite some time and did not know what he needed to do. JFK Dental Care got right to work. Dr. Dubin and his staff gave Abdullah a 10-point comprehensive examination, full mouth radiographs (x-rays) to diagnose the next step needed to restore his mouth. Next Abdullah came in for a extensive cleaning to get all the tartar and plaque build-up. Abdullah had obvious decay in multiple areas of his mouth as well as other restorative work. Abdullah came in for his visit yesterday to complete treatment on the decay with tooth-colored fillings for a more natural smile. We are so proud he took the next step.

Seeing is believing… We’ll let you see for yourself what Dr. Dubin can do for a patient in need!
