I retired from the profession of Dentistry quite some time ago. While materials and procedures always continue to advance, some things remain the same. I still know enough about Dentistry to know what to look for in a Practice.
An exceptional General Dentist must have a good working knowledge of all areas of Dentistry and related Medicine. He or she must be able to successfully incorporate new materials and procedures into their practice but they must know where and when the "new" is truly a better option than more established procedures with long proven and predictable outcomes.
While a good General Dentist should ideally be able to complete much of the required treatment personally, they must also know when to refer the patient to someone who specializes in a particular area. He or she must be someone who knows and is respected by the dental community. He or she is able to coordinate all available expertise in order to get a good, individualized treatment plan done as well and as efficiently as possible.
This demands a person who loves the profession and who is committed to spend their time, effort and resources in the pursuit of *professional* continuing education.
Excellent health care service is seldom cheap to receive. It is not cheap to provide, either. While you will may have some success in finding a less expensive practice, I doubt that you'll find better Health Care in General Dentistry than that provided by Dr. Andrew Reese and his Office staff.
If you are looking for a good General Dentistry Practice, "Smiles on Broadway" is worthy of your consideration. You'll get what you pay for there. That has been my experience anyway. I am happy to be a patient in their practice and I recommend them highly. read more
