We are going to try something new in Houston, utilizing new and commonly owned technologies.  If you have a digital camera, a computer, and an internet connection, you are all set.  You can take a few pictures of your smile and e mail it to Dr. Frazar.  She can then give you an idea of what might be possible. 

Here is what you will need to do.  Get your digital camera and set it in Macro Mode.  This is usually a setting with a flower as a symbol.  You will need a helper to take the pictures. It is too hard to take it on yourself. Have the shooter stand about three feet away and zoom in to the corners of the mouth.  Being three feet away allows the flash to diffuse.  Take a straight on smile and one from each side.   

Wash your hands and use your index and middle fingers on each side of your mouth to retract your lips out of the way.  Take two pictures in this position.  Take the first picture biting together and one slightly open so the bottom teeth show.

E-mail this to Dr. Frazar and she will evaluate the possibilities that cosmetic dentistry can offer and e-mail you back.  Label your e-mails as “Smile Consult” and send to info@drfrazar.com.  Please refer to the pictures below for an example:

     

This is what happens when you use a flash:
