My result is better than any of the pictures I sent them in the planning processJulia, US, 27 05 24

I’d been wanting to get veneers for years. I never liked the look of my teeth despite going through both braces and Invisalign. They were uneven, small, and chipped and because of that I rarely showed my teeth when smiling for photos. I had been saving pictures of what I wanted my dream smile to look like for years and after lots of research and seeing what Dr. Rowan, Dr. Gabriel, and the team had accomplished in the past, I knew if anyone could give me my dream smile, it was them. I originally assumed I would find someone close to me in NYC to do my teeth, but after a friend mentioned they had gotten their teeth done by Dr. Rowan and I saw how fantastic those looked, I got in touch with him. Dr. Rowan met with me for hours and then was in communication with me for weeks leading up to my trip to Rio. Throughout that time he explained in incredible detail the technology they used, which is very advanced, and the overall process and what to expect. He took into account every aspect of what I wanted in my dream smile. Seeing that they were capable of, it was an obvious decision for me to go with them versus someone closer to home. Dr. Rowan and his team are not only more talented than anyone I could find in the U.S., they are also the most considerate, patient, and caring team I’ve ever come across. You do not get this kind of dedicated care in the U.S., in any medical field. Dr. Gabriel did my procedure while in Rio and carefully paid attention to the features of each individual tooth. He is an artist! For countless hours across a few days in the office (and through a weekend so that I could come to Rio on a quick trip from Thursday to Sunday and go home with a completed smile) he diligently worked on each tooth until and did not quit until my smile was perfect. I still cannot believe how natural each tooth looks. My result is better than any of the pictures I sent them in the planning process! I will be smiling big in all of my future photos! All of my happy moments will have a piece of them in it now! They have an incredibly caring team that were there every day dedicated to making sure my experience was fantastic, and it was! I’m usually a much more private person about this stuff, but they all are way too amazing to not share what an incredible experience and end result this was. It would be cruel to have a team dedicate this much time and attention and create such a perfect work of art and not share it with the world so everyone can know what they’re capable of!! Plus, I’m so happy with it that I’ve been telling everyone I see lol. My family and friends are obsessed with how it came out! My parents both have porcelain veneers and I’m sure will be coming here for their new future sets. They are blown away by the time and dedication to excellence this office has! Dr. Rowan, you’ve really created something special down in Rio. Thank you so much for the smile of my dreams 🤩
