Deciding on a dentist.... GO TO CDFX
I grew up with well water, terrified of the dentists, I had a mouth full of mercury, black, gray, yellow areas, and silver 25 year old fillings. I could not go back to the last dentist who was all about the money, just rushed you through the herd. I felt like my whole mouth wasn't considered, although I was there for a broken tooth. I started to feel like I had to cover my smile it looked and felt awful. I went to CDFX with a new broken tooth and the remaining partial broken tooth, and several fillings in dire need of replacing.
As I walked in Dawn(now Stacy) at the front desk was very pleasant, and understanding, also Danielle and Kim the assistants(they are training Dawn and another girl who looks like Rae off the new star wars I think her name is Kerry- you get to watch movies while they work on you great for all for a distraction!), very gentle to Dr. Yu although she was busy, she took her time with me, I felt at ease the whole time and every time, anytime, something didn't feel quite right they got me in. Now, these ladies have seen me over the past 2 years or more, it seems like every other month. They evaluated my mouth every time I came in, to check on how I was feeling, how my teeth and gums looked. I needed several things first they sent me out for a second opinion to verify their findings, and they left it up to me to decide what I wanted to do based on how comfortable I felt. I needed teeth pulled(I got teary eyed), my fillings were too large to be replaced, so this meant several crowns, and a bridge. After all this work was complete I had the whiting light applied to fix the residual staining on my teeth from the well water and old fillings I grew up with all this and now I feel like I have fabulous strong teeth, again, finally!!! I haven't had that feeling in so long I can't even remember, I was always sensitive to hot, cold, certain textures, grainy, oh and if I ever got foil or too gritty(like metallic sandy- clams and oysters) in my mouth forget it I went through the roof so painful. All the black, gray, yellow and silver is gone, no sensitivity, my mouth looks, feels and tasted completely different, what a relief so much better, the best! I love my mouth now, thanks a million to CDFX, the best part is;
I love to smile again!
