Ned A. Nippoldt, DDS, of Woodbury-based Centre for Distinctive Dentistry knows that a healthy smile affects a person’s overall well-being, and a confident smile has the power of changing a person’s physical appearance and self-esteem. A nice smile can make a huge impact in a person’s life.
A member of seven professional dental associations, Dr. Nippoldt is trained to understand smile design and neuromuscular bite so that his patients’ smiles look natural and function effectively. He has taken advanced dental courses in cosmetic dentistry, neuromuscular dentistry, implant dentistry, cosmetic dentures, and endodontics, and is constantly looking for ways to improve the lives of his clients.
One way the Centre for Distinctive Dentistry improves lives is by offering patients a whole-mouth approach to achieving a beautiful smile that will last a lifetime.
“By this I mean we look at the conditions our patients present, their dental health, and their dreams for how they want their smile to look, and we put together a plan to help them achieve those dreams,†explains Dr. Nippoldt.
His staff truly cares about each patient, offering special treatments for nervous patients, and advanced techniques–such as the use
of lasers.
“Every patient is so different,†Dr. Nippoldt says. “What I enjoy most about my job is developing relationships with my patients and seeing how what we have to offer truly changes their lives for the better.â€
