Case Description
I had a very bad experience with my last dentist. I have a wisdom toothe that has a cvity and needs to be removed. My former dentist wanted to fill it then extract it later. Why not extract it now and get it over with? He seemed to be concerned about making money and not my health. I need a dentist that I can trust and will not turn me upside down to shake the change out of my pockets! I have BC/BS federal employees plan health insurance. Please e-mail me at louiehooper@yahoo.com

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.
