OMNICHROMA is a new, revolutionary composite material created by Tokuyama Dental.

Traditional composite materials used for fillings and direct bonding typically consist of color-matching a patient's existing teeth to ensure the restorations blend seamlessly into one's smile.

With OMNICHROMA, the universal composite material matches itself to a patient's existing teeth after curing — effectively eliminating the need to layer different colors of composite to match the shade.

The results he achieved were "the best we've ever seen," according to the magazine.

I created my Spin for Smiles Fund to raise money for Operation Smile – a global medical nonprofit organization that provides free surgeries for children around the world born with a cleft lip, cleft palate, and other facial deformities.

Every three minutes, a child is born with a cleft lip or cleft palate – and many families can't afford the surgery they desperately need. In many places, children with cleft conditions are abandoned or abused. Many times, they have trouble eating and drinking and can struggle to survive. Those that do can face a lifetime of shame and torment.

They need our help, and our team — in addition to patients, business partners, and kind friends and neighbors — have donated to help bring hope and new smiles to children suffering from facial deformities.

We’ve raised over $10,000 so far — helping Operation Smile provide life-changing surgery and renewed hope for 41 children around the world.

TopDentists has over 50 years of combined experience compiling peer-review referral guides in the legal, dental, and medical fields. Using this experience, along with the input of several prominent dentists in the United States, they have created a selection process that has been refined and improved over previous superlative guides. Because dentists must be voted in strictly by their peers, and virtually every dentist is given an opportunity to participate (listings cannot be purchased and no payment is required to be listed), inclusion in topDentists is considered to be a distinct honor. With a circulation of over 1 million and reaching nearly 10 million readers, topDentists is quickly becoming the most recognizable list of dentists in the U.S.

Who picks the doctors and dentists? A research and information company, Top Doc America, has published their first annual list titled "2020 Best Doctors & Dentists," which lists those whom Top Doc America has determined to be in the top 10% of the region's doctors and dentists.

How Does Top Doc America Decide Which Doctors and Dentists are the Best?

The firm conducts in-person interviews with the majority of winners and sends out thousands of nomination forms to medical professionals. The idea is that healthcare professionals are best qualified to judge other healthcare professionals, and if one recommendation is good (think of your doctor or dentist referring you to a specialist), multiple recommendations are better.

The firm also relies on patient reviews on websites such as: WebMD, Yelp, Rate MD, Health Grades, Google, Physician Reports, Dr. Oogle, and other leading independent healthcare rating companies. The interview asks recipients to nominate those doctors who, in their judgment, are the best in their field and related fields--especially those to whom they would refer their own patients and family members. Doctors and dentists are asked not to nominate themselves; nominations are kept confidential.

Top Doc America asks the nominators to take into account not only professional qualifications and reputation (education, residency, board certification, hospital appointment, and disciplinary record, for example) but also skills in dealing with patients (listening and communicating effectively, demonstrating empathy, instilling trust and confidence). Top Doc America then tabulates the results and examines the nominee pool, confirming the doctors’ board-certification, licensing, and investigating their disciplinary history.

The main purpose of the award is to make it easier for the public to meet qualified doctors and dentists to help with the healthcare crisis. Top Doc America does not pick doctors and dentists based on their medical experience, rather it relies on the popularity that they have in their community and the willingness for them to help with the healthcare crisis.
