When Jason Elliott stepped into Park Family and Cosmetic Dentistry (PFCD), he was looking for more than a brighter smile—he was looking for confidence. As a software designer turned digital nomad, Jason had spent years battling tooth decay and feeling self-conscious about the appearance of his teeth. But thanks to Dr. William Campbell and the caring team at PFCD, Jason finally found the solution he needed: porcelain crowns that transformed both his smile and his outlook.
Jason’s lifestyle is anything but ordinary. Though based in Florida, he and his fiancée are currently traveling the world, taking on freelance design projects from wherever inspiration strikes. “We just spent 14 days in Italy,” he says. “I loved Tortola, the culture, and especially meeting new people. It’s so much easier to connect when you’re confident in your smile.”
The Problem: Cavities and Confidence
Like many patients, Jason came to PFCD with a history of cavities and dissatisfaction with the appearance of his teeth. “I wanted something that looked more professional,” he says. “Something whiter, straighter—and I wanted it done right.”
Cavities, or dental caries, are among the most common chronic diseases worldwide. Caused by a combination of bacteria, sugars, and poor oral hygiene, cavities can damage the structure of the teeth and lead to sensitivity, infection, or even tooth loss if not treated promptly. When restorative work such as fillings is no longer sufficient, dental crowns may be recommended.
The Solution: Porcelain Crowns
Dr. Campbell recommended porcelain crowns for Jason’s top teeth. Dental crowns are custom-made restorations that cover the entire visible portion of a tooth. They are often used to:
• Strengthen weakened or damaged teeth
• Restore teeth with extensive decay or large fillings
• Improve the appearance of discolored or misshapen teeth
• Support dental bridges or top dental implants
Porcelain crowns are a popular choice for front teeth because they closely mimic the translucency and shine of natural enamel. They are also highly durable and stain-resistant.
The process typically involves two to three visits. During the first appointment, Dr. Campbell made impressions and carefully reshaped Jason’s teeth to accommodate the crowns. Temporary crowns were placed while the permanent ones were being fabricated by the dental lab. Once ready, the final crowns were bonded in place, instantly transforming Jason’s smile.
“Absolutely Worth It”
When asked if he would do it again, Jason didn’t hesitate. “Absolutely,” he says. “The best part is how white and natural they look. I get compliments all the time. But more than that, I have the confidence to smile and speak freely—whether I’m pitching to a client or just talking to a stranger in a café.”
This boost in self-assurance has had a ripple effect on both his personal and professional life. “My new teeth have helped me win over clients for jobs. I love that people notice my smile—it’s something I never experienced before.”
Managing Dental Anxiety
Dental anxiety is a common barrier to care. The American Dental Association estimates that as many as 22% of adults avoid going to the dentist due to fear. For Jason, this was once a real concern. But PFCD made a lasting impression.
“I had a lot of dental anxiety in the past,” he admits. “But I didn’t feel it here. Everyone is so professional and kind.”
Jason credits Dr. Campbell’s assistant, James, as a key part of his positive experience. “James was incredible. He answered my questions before I could even ask them. He walked me through the entire process and made me feel totally comfortable.”
At Park Family and Cosmetic Dentistry, managing dental anxiety is an essential part of patient care. The team is trained to recognize signs of discomfort and offers solutions such as clear communication, gentle techniques, and sedation options when appropriate. These efforts are especially important for patients undergoing multi-step procedures like crown placement.
An Office That Feels Like Family
Jason’s praise extends beyond just his smile makeover. “I love everyone at Park Family and Cosmetic Dentistry,” he says. “It’s such a great place. I can’t recommend them enough.”
Dr. William Campbell and his team take pride in offering a patient-centered approach. Every smile transformation begins with a detailed consultation and personalized treatment plan, ensuring that patients understand their options and feel confident about their care.
For individuals who struggle with damaged, discolored, or decayed teeth, porcelain crowns offer both aesthetic and functional benefits. When placed by an experienced provider like Dr. Campbell, they can restore not just your smile, but your quality of life.
