Cosmetic dentistry is a specialty that requires at least three things from the dentist: extensive experience, an artistic touch, and the ability to integrate each patient’s needs and desires as a guiding principle of the treatment plan. Excelling in all of the above, Dr. Nelson Y. Howard is a national leader in the field of cosmetic dentistry. His recent article published in aesthetic advances, “Considerations for treating transgender patients” (April 2018), details the need to consider the differences in anterior teeth between men and women. This publication is one of many articles from Dr. Howard — he continues to lead the pack in the field of cosmetic dentistry!
