Veneers, crowns, implants, bleaching, Invisalign--all have been on the agenda for our patients--of all political stripes--who have been deep in the fray of presidential politics. And it's been exciting to do our part in improving and maintaining camera-ready smiles for national TV, campaign rallies and fundraisers.
"One of the benefits of being in Washington, DC is that we see many news people, congressmen, consultants, party big-wigs, activists who apparently see the value of a good smile in politics," says Dr. Daniel J. Deutsch, of the Washington Center for Dentistry, in Washington, DC.
Dr. Deutsch wasn't naming names, but he noted that it was "fun" to turn on the TV every night and see patients who are newsmen and pundits show up on CNN and MSNBC with their good-looking smiles.
Dr. Marc Doctors, also of the Washington Center, said he was surprised that people took time during the campaign to come in for what ever it took to look their best--from routine check-ups to upper-and-lower veneers.
"Having on-air appeal definitely includes your teeth," he said.
And as the long campaign season draws to a close, one political pundit noted that whitening his teeth was a must before he hit the campaign trail. "Nowadays, it's the person with the 'needy' smile that is the exception," he said. "You want to be at the top of the list of producers calling for people to comment on events going on. Every one knows that means more than giving great analysis. You have to look good while you're giving it."
