“My enthusiasm is not limited to the science of dentistry. It’s about what I can do for people, how it can enhance their appearance and ultimately change their life. I’ve seen it happen time and again and it never fails to overwhelm me”
– Dr. Bob Perkins
Most cosmetic dental treatments focus on what you can see: the teeth. But the way a smile looks and feels is deeply influenced by what supports it. Jaw position and bite alignment affect:
When these foundations are ignored, even beautiful dental work can feel “off,” wear down prematurely, or fail to deliver the result patients were hoping for. Dr. Perkins takes a different approach. By evaluating jaw position and bite first and using conservative, prepless veneers only when appropriate; treatment is planned around the entire face, not just the teeth. The result is a smile that looks natural, feels balanced, and holds up over time.
Leah came in feeling like her jaw sat too far back, softening her profile and making her look older than she felt. Right away after beginning the JawAlign™ protocol, she noticed a more attractive jaw position and a more youthful appearance from just correcting her bite in the trial phase. Her family noticed it too.
Dr. Perkins’ work goes beyond cosmetic dentistry or veneers alone. His approach focuses on improving jaw position, facial balance, and bite function together — addressing changes in facial profile, signs of aging, worn or compromised teeth, and bite-related discomfort in a single, integrated plan. Whether you have worn teeth, an overbite, crossbite, underbite, collapsed bite, or misaligned jaw, this can be achieved without surgery, braces, or drilling down healthy teeth. This revolutionary protocol is why patients from all over the world choose Dr. Perkins when exploring alternatives to corrective jaw surgery.

The most professional and pristine place I have ever been to! Dr perkins transformed my smile in such a way that even my close friends can’t see what I had done but they are all guessing I had some cosmetic surgery! I look amazingly different and I had no idea that your whole face structure could be changed by changing your bite and realigning your jaw! I couldn’t be happier and I might add that Dr Perkins is probably the nicest and most caring and meticulous dentist on this planet!
I’ve seen over 10 specialists for my TMJ that I’ve had for many years. Dr. Perkins is the first and only specialist who is able to not only get rid of my chronic headaches for over 20 years but I also did a magnificent job with veneers to give me that smile I’ve always been wanting. He’s very personable and super easy to get along with. Staff is very friendly and the location is perfect. I highly recommend him for all of your Dental needs!
I am very happy that I met Dr. Perkins when I did! He’s given me a beautiful smile. I had a couple of consultation before meeting Dr. Perkins and I wasn’t sold on any of treatment plans I had been presented. As soon as I met Dr. Perkins, he came up with a great treatment plan that was able to work around my busy schedule. His office is beautiful and welcoming as well!
