Dentists provide two services: need-based dentistry and wish-based dentistry. If your gums are bleeding or you have a toothache, you see the dentist out of need. If, however, your teeth are chipped or crooked or your smile isn't white enough, then your main goal is probably to better your appearance. This is wish-based dentistry. But, in order to enhance your appearance, you must achieve and maintain basic dental health. The two go hand in hand. In our office, we bring both dental pieces together. When you come to our office, we listen to what your wishes are and then try to show you what can be done to make them a reality. We always try to deal with the things that may have stopped you from accomplishing your goals before, so that this time you will be able to receive all the benefits of treatment. We know that your time is precious, so we try to complete your treatment in the fewest possible appointments and of course, we're always on time.
We recognize that there are many factors that influence the quality of our patients' dental experience, and we attempt to address each of your concerns. For many patients, fear is a real issue. We make every effort to ensure that your procedure time is as comfortable and as short as possible, while still paying careful attention to detail. Cost is another factor that affects many of our patients, so we try to keep our costs within reason, considering the increases in materials and new technologies. Financial arrangements can be made.
