Celebrating
more than a century in Waukesha
WAUKESHA - If you’ve lived in Waukesha long enough,
there’s a good chance someone you know has had his or
her their teeth cleaned by a member of the Davies family
- and maybe you have as well.
In
search of the perfect smile Beauty
may well be in the eye of the beholder, but when it comes to a
winning smile, it’s also in the numbers — the length of your
teeth, the amount of gum showing, and other measurable factors.
So, how do you capture the perfect smile?
Open

Estimates show that as many as 75
percent of U.S. adults have some degree of fear of going to the
dentist. But perhaps 5 to 10 percent of them actually suffer from
dental phobia, which causes so much distress that they avoid the
dentist at all costs — until an emergency happens.
Set
your smile free
Mention
the word "dentist" to Carol Gerard of Milwaukee, and she’s
likely to flash you a million-dollar grin. But she wasn’t always
enthusiastic about sitting in a dentist’s chair. "They’ve
come a long way with dentistry," Gerard says. "I used to
have a dentist I (jokingly) called ‘Dr. Yankum.’"
