Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

There are several options that you may have availible to you In some instances it is better to have the implants placed when you have your teeth extracted depending on how much bone and the quality of the bone among other factors. Sometimes it is better and wait to place the implants after the bone has healed. We have a dentist in our office who does nothing but implants and would be happy to spend some time with you to determine what would be appropriate for your specific case. Let us know if we can help

I would be glad to consult with you about your situation. I am a periodontist and have years of experience of treating the bone and gum around the teeth, as well as implant planning and placement.Perhaps, there are teeth that we may be able to save and extract those that are hopeless. Depending how we decide to do the implants, there are many different ways to plan the restorations.In any case, I would be happy to discuss the options with you.Did another dentist diagnose the need to extract all of your teeth? Feel free to email or call.Thanks
