Dentist offers booze and Botox to go along with your filling

4/30/2012

No reason going to a dentist should be like pulling teeth. Why not a complimentary glass of bubbly at check-in, or a massage and facial -- a Botox treatment, perhaps -- to go along with that routine cleaning? This is only part of the experience offered by Dr. Patty's Dental Boutique -- yes, boutique -- in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., which operates out of a former spa and is run by cosmetic and restorative dentist April Patterson. While you're in the chair, there is even a concierge on staff - otherwise known as a "Director of Client Happiness" - who will tend to your limo and dinner reservations. Sure makes a root canal seem better.
