Tennessee dentist Dr. Randall Deaton has reached #1 on the Amazon.com Bestsellers List with his book A Reason to Smile: Fixing Broken Confidence with Cosmetic Dentistry. This book contains practical information on how to choose the right dental care for every need along with tips and tricks to help patients have a healthy, beautiful smile.

A Reason to Smile was created as a common-sense approach to allow readers to learn the facts about dental treatments from the experts. The book teaches patients what to look for in a dentist as well as how to spot problems and treat them proactively. Dental patients are given information on a wide range of topics including orthodontics, preventative care, and cosmetic dentistry.

The book has been hailed as a handbook for patient empowerment. By giving dental patients the information they need to make informed choices, Deaton hopes that they will understand the benefits of choosing various procedures, particularly those labeled as “cosmetic.” In many cases, according to the author, cosmetic procedures are far more important than simply improving appearance; often, they can be the key to lifelong dental health and increased self-confidence.

“It is a great honor to receive positive critical acclaim for this book,” said Deaton, “but it is even better to learn that patients are benefitting from this information. My purpose in writing was to help patients everywhere understand their dental care options and make good choices.”

Dr. Deaton has become recognized for his work in a wide range of cosmetic dentistry, including teeth whitening. In his chapter, “Fifty Shades of White,” Deaton discusses popular methods of teeth whitening and explains why not all tooth whiteners are equal. He also discusses the benefits of allowing a professional to work with patients to discover the ultimate white smile.

A Reason to Smile became a #1 Bestseller on Amazon in the United States and Canada and #2 in the UK. It can be found in both the Dentistry and Oral Health categories.
