"The Best Decision I Made In My Entire Life"
- Duncan
Duncan Before and After Dental Implants
"Two days ago, I went to the Nuvia office where I received my new smile. Every time I walk in, I am greeted with warmth, kindness, and laughter. One of my thoughts this morning was, "had you ever bought a new car at a dealership and walked in six months after the purchase and been met with the same emotions?" There is no doubt the cost of full implants is a significant investment. What I realize is part of what makes Nuvia so extraordinary is the skill of the Doctors and staff that provide these beautiful teeth and the genuineness of each staff member. As the office has grown, many people were not there when I received my implants, yet greet me with the same friendliness as those who helped me. If you are looking for a place where you not only get the best product available, you receive a relationship that is unheard of in most dental-type offices. If you have a history of not liking dentist offices, I encourage you to take a step forward and walk into a Nuvia office and see for yourself not only an opportunity to have beautiful teeth but the kind of care that is rare."
