Cosmetic Dentist Receives Prestigious Cosmetic Practice of the Year Award
Cosmetic dentist Harry Long has a little something extra to smile about: The New Jersey-based dentist received the prestigious Cosmetic Practice of the Year Award, awarded by the Levin Group.
Wayne, NJ (PRWEB via PR Web Direct)
May 17, 2005 -- Dentist Harry Long, DMD, received the prestigious 2004 Cosmetic
Practice of the Year (CPOY) Award in February this year. Dr. Long received the
award from Levin Group, a leading dental consulting firm providing innovative
lifetime services to dentists. The award recognizes Dr. Long's excellence in
cosmetic dentistry based on his practice philosophy, commitment, performance,
leadership, smile design, use of advanced technologies and dedication to patient
comfort and communication. He was honored for the award during a ceremony in
Chicago.
"I felt humbled to have won this award," said Dr. Long, who
maintains a Wayne, N.J., private practice that generates nearly 70 percent of
its dentistry from cosmetic dentistry procedures. “It has encouraged me to
continue my pursuit to give patients a more beautiful smile and help them feel
better about themselves.”
Dr. Long's practice is more like a spa than a
traditional dental office. Patients can enjoy a full array of satellite
programming on flat-screen TVs in five treatment rooms, and each dental chair
has a heated massage back for patient comfort. The practice also provides
paraffin hand wax treatments, freshly baked cookies, coffee and cappuccino to
patients.
Dr. Long, who is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic
Dentistry, says he has always been interested in improving his practice to
provide the finest in patient care and the latest technology.
"Advancements in modern dental care have made everything much easier and
more comfortable for patients," said Dr. Long. "Now a person can have a dazzling
smile much more easily; I feel fortunate to be able to help them achieve the
appearance they've always wanted."
