Last year a young man came to my office for a new patient dental checkup after he had visited my website and saw examples of beautiful dentistry. He really wanted to have veneers because he had large gaps in his front teeth. A clinical exam and a study of his new x-rays revealed that he had decay in every single one of his teeth that were fixed by a dentist just 10 months before.I successfully convinced the young man to restore all of decayed back teeth before worrying about correcting his esthetic concerns. X-rays and digital photographs DOCUMENTED the tooth decay under all of his fillings and after 16 hours in the dental chair, we had replaced the defective fillings with beautiful, new, strong and functional bonded white fillings.
Yesterday the young man's sister and mother came to my office after an hour and a half trip from Vermont. His Mother had gone to the same dentist for her dental care and she was convinced by her son that she needed to find a new dentist. His mom told me that, "she was tired of going to an average dentist because she could not trust him and it ended up costing more money." She concluded by saying that 'she wanted to go to the best like her son had.'
I am thrilled and honored to have been able to earn the trust of a young man barely out of his teens.
As I always tell you...We all need to search out good people to take care of us. Our health depends on it.
