Re: [ACEsthetics] new patient today

Dave. when a clasic car is restored, with a rotiserrie or ground-up restoration, you go right down to the frame, get rid of the rust, and decide what parts you can keep, and which need to be ordered or created by a machinist.  When it's all said and done, the body is separated from the chassis and sent for layers of paint and lacquer.  You can't do it a fender at a time and expect it to last until you get to the next fender.  There are some cases that can be done piecemeal.  Siegel's case was an all-or nothing proposition.

Those are good analogies, especially the wedding dress.  However I do know guys that restore cars over years.  The problem I see happening is that when people want to restore their mouth over time, it eliminates the the ability to do it "properly".  Yes you can do many crowns on a person that way but in the end, to get a "restoration" of the mouth and improve the bite all of the crowns will have to be redone into a healthier bite relationship.

Folks, this is a great analogy, and great analogies don't grow on trees. I will be using this! Makes so much intuitive sense!
 
Good job, Steve.

Are you into classic cars?  Just doing the bridge, without looking at everything else would be like trying to restore a classic car one quarter panel at a time.  Just off the top of my head.  For a woman: trying to do the bridge would be like buying a sleeve for the bridal gown this year, the trail next year, etc.  Let them connect the dots.

So we had a consult this morning for someone new to the area that had porcelain break off of his front bridge.  We took photos and showed it to him on the BAM (big ass monitor) like Mac and Joleen tought us.  I spent maybe 5 minutes with him but my TC spent time showing him his photos and discussing what we all see.  Has some TMD symptoms so also showed him Curtis's presentation on TMJ.  He had no idea how bad things are so seems motivated.  So my question is, how do you get him to want to do his whole mouth when he was just concerned about the broken bridge.  He had no idea how much was going on until he saw the photos.
