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.

Cost Estimate: $1600 for an implant
The implant will always be better than a bridge and definitely is better than the partial. I have done implant over 12 years, with more than 5000 cases and less than 1% failure. We have been guaranteed our implants life time for 8 yrs now. We offer best pricing with real patient presentation whose oral condition is similar to yours. Implant will always be the best choice because of its look and feel natural and comfortable. Please make an appointment for the exam. We have the CT-Scan on site and thus we will make a very accurate diagnosis. If we cannot do implant on you, we will not charge you anything. And that is a promise from our practice.
