Interview with Dr. Jana Harrison<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/b>Q.<\/strong> What first made you think about becoming a dentist, and was there a moment when you knew for sure it was the right fit for you?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> I have always been interested in art and science. This is the best way to combine my two passions. I\u2019m able to use my intelligence and creativity every day<\/a>.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/b>Q. <\/strong>What inspired you to become a cosmetic dentist specifically?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> I love to make things pretty. That includes people and their teeth.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/b> Q. <\/strong>You\u2019re known for being both a scientist and a creative person. How do these two sides of your personality work together in cosmetic dentistry?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> A good dentist is a good mechanical engineer. The mechanics of what we do is what creates long-lasting results, but I must be able to couple that with my artistic side to make the results beautiful.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong>What was the first cosmetic dental treatment you ever completed? How did it feel to see the results?
\nDr. Harrison:<\/b> The first cosmetic case I completed was very early in my career in a small town south of Dallas. I really changed my patient\u2019s appearance. She was so happy, and it really ignited my passion to create a positive change for my patients. I could see it was really a lot more than just correcting some broken teeth. It was about giving her confidence back.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong>If you could tell your patients one thing about being a dentist or cosmetic dentist, what would it be?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> I am here to help you achieve your goals in the most comfortable way possible. I want your smile to be beautiful and last a lifetime.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong><\/span><\/b>What does it mean to you to see your patients walk through your door in pain or embarrassed by their smile and walk out pain-free and happy?
\nDr. Harrison:<\/b> It means everything! A patient crying tears of happiness is really the greatest reward.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong><\/span><\/b> What\u2019s your favorite dental tool and why?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> Our new Trios Scanner is my favorite tool. It is so much more accurate than traditional impressions. It allows for a digital workflow, and our patients no longer have to endure messy impressions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong><\/span><\/b> If you could talk to anyone considering dentistry — cosmetic dentistry or modern dentistry as a profession, what would you tell them?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> I have and do talk to lots of young people considering dentistry; whether it\u2019s administrative, assisting, dental hygiene, or becoming a dentist, it\u2019s a great profession. It allows you to help people and be creative at the same time. It can also allow flexibility in your work hours if that\u2019s needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong><\/span>What\u2019s your favorite thing about Plano?
\nDr. Harrison:<\/b> I love that Plano couples a small town, Texas feel with all the perks of a large city. It offers a great deal of cultural diversity. We really have anything you are looking for: live sports, the arts, great restaurants, and friendly people.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong>Where is your favorite place to go, anywhere in the world, and why?
\n<\/span>Dr. Harrison:<\/b> The beach. It is just such a calm infinite place.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q. <\/strong><\/span>When you\u2019re not at the office, how do you like to spend your time?
\nDr. Harrison: <\/b>I love spending time with my friends. I have a few good friends I spend a lot of time with. I also love doing art projects of any kind.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
