It is a truism to say that dentists know dentistry.
The FACT is, that many dentists never pursue excellence and therefore, the dentistry that they know is the dentistry that they provide to their own patients. Most dentists do not select great dentists to be their personal dentist and usually go to the dentist down the street. (My dentist IS a world class clinician)
I posted a wonderful case on the ACE forum last week and one of the dentists in the group from Atlanta,GA sent me the following email:
If I ever need cosmetic composites done on my teeth....I'm flying my ass to YOUR office!!
Those were not the only kind words about my work but it IS the most telling.
You should select the dentist that OTHER DENTISTS select as their dentist.
