Happy President's Day from My Dentist USA!

Cosmetic dentistry has been around a long time. Ancient Egyptian dentists were known to be practicing dentistry in the Old Kingdom as early as c.2650 BCE. Since then, dentists have been improving the smile of prominent figures throughout history such as our first President, George Washington, whose birthday we celebrate today. President Washington wore dentures made of ivory, not wood as most people think, to improve his smile.

Cosmetic dentistry has come a long way, indeed. Today, the First President would be fitted with dental implants which are permanent, fully functional teeth, rather than ivory dentures fashioned with human and animal teeth.

George wore ivory dentures to improve his smile. What lengths would you go to to improve yours?
