A master dentist understands how the teeth, lips and muscles of the face interact to create a beautiful smile. Understanding facial anatomy is where a dentist’s training has an advantage in facial esthetics. As a DMD – Doctor of Dental Medicine – Dr. Frank knows how the decisions of today will affect your facial esthetics in the future, specifically in relation to function and longevity
Dr. Franks philosophy and approach to caring for each patient has been founded on the facially generated treatment planning strategy, which incorporates the patients entire face into the design of his or her new smile.

Similar to working from the outside-in for your smile makeover, Dr. Frank is able to work from the inside-out for your facial renaissance, utilizing minimally invasive cosmetics procedures, like Botox and fillers. This inside-out method also encompasses the facially generated treatment planning structure, which starts with an examination of the dental components that influence and support the shape of the face, such as the skeletal substructure, teeth and muscles of face, which provides valuable information.
