Go to this dentist!! Do not pass Go, turn the horse around, don't search any further, and just make an appointment today. Various hours fit our modern bizarre schedules so you'll find a good time. Don't even think about going to Acme Dental Corporation Unlimited and Fishmonger where they have revolving dentists who don't even introduce themselves. Bleh. This is an office up to date on the latest procedures, not the latest industrial nameless and faceless medicine elsewhere. But if you absolutely, positively must have yet another toothbrush with a company name and phone number emblazoned on the handle then go elsewhere. I'm sure they are valuable on Ebay.
The optional laser for soft tissue and tooth work is the preferred way to go. Yes it may cost $60 per session or thereabout but there is no awful drill sound, smell, far less material is removed, it is far more precise than a standard drill, and it cleans and disinfects as it operates. Remember belt driven drills were replaced by direct drive and now laser is the standard. Just like cars used to have fixable carburetors and now have computer-controlled injectors once you have a laser procedure you'll never want to go back. Never ever. Nope. Nyet. Nada. Unless you enjoy starting a car by cranking a handle in front of your Model T with Henry Ford. I'm just saying.
The office does implants which is quickly becoming the standard for major work. They have a great implant offer and cost program along with a kind of annual flat fee program. Upgrades from the minimal insurance coverage of metal crowns to porcelain and amalgam to composite fillings are available if you desire. Recommended preventive procedures are totally optional but they know what my mouth looks like better than I do! What is the old saying? "Only floss the ones you want to keep." Strange how some people think the recommendation for new wiper blades is unimpeachable but the recommendation by doctors with years of schooling is best decided by an internet search. My last dentist had the hands of a freakin' mason. Knew his stuff but sheesh I felt like slab of granite at a monument yard being chiseled with a tulip. This doc must weave silk as a hobby he is so smooth and gentle.
The office is furnished normally without the costly extravagance of fish tanks and video machines that must be paid for with higher charges. Plus there is a real patient bathroom! No ridiculous key on a chain attached to a giant plastic molar to access a toxic public restroom! Why do other places think that is acceptable?
Each appointment has enough time so there is plenty of time to complete the procedures. I once had an emergency and I saw how the Doc and staff slipped into well-oiled machine consummate professional Marcus Welby, George Clooney, ER (before it jumped the shark), House (without the arrogance) mode and Bam! everything was completed without disrupting the whole schedule. Don't be fooled by the cool music and think otherwise, because every person knows how to do everything required.
The office staff make the experience a complete pleasure. Many people fear the dentist so it is understandable folks might associate bad experiences with the staff. They are keenly aware of the natural stress of procedures, the anxiety of payments, and the challenges of scheduling all of our responsibilities with infrequent medical appointments. I've observed as they treat patients like a person, a human, and not like an inconvenience, a customer, or a bother. Sure Dr. Gaeta tells stories but they all will also listen if you have something good to say. The humanity we all cherish, deserve, and which nourishes our soul exists in this office and with these people. Once you try this office you will realize just what is missing in dental services elsewhere and you'll realize how much you deserve to be treated this well everywhere you go. Dr. Gaeta, Jules, Karen, Brittany, Saby, Austin, and the rest will take care of you and your family. On the door it says, "Dentistry the way it ought to be." They live by that motto. Go see Dr. Gaeta; you'll be happy you did. read more
