Dr Hodgert is a very talented Dentist. I couldn't have been more impressed with his skill and great staff. It was disappointing though to have had 3 failed bone grafts and sinus lifts, and be blamed for it. I was told the failure happened because i went off my antibiotics. I did sign a lot of papers saying that dental work is not guaranteed. But, I would have appreciated up front communication about the risks. I didn`t here about the risks until I was about to have the procedure done, and it was by reading a paper I had to sign. It would have helped if I was plainly told that if I went off the antibiotic, the bone graft might fail and that the Dr. would not be responsible. Or that if he redid the procedure it would cost quite a bit more. I feel I got a bad deal. 3 out of 6 bone grafts didn't make it. Bottom line: $9,000 for 3 bone grafts and No implants. Ouch! read more
