I had a broken tooth on the upper left side of my mouth for several months. I had seen two dentists, one of whom insisted I get a bone graft ($400. out of pocket cost- not!) even though I wasn't having a tooth implanted and one who was honest about not being able to remove it because it broke close to the gum line on one side, she suggested I see an oral surgeon.
After much research I found a highly qualified oral surgeon, Dr. Paul Weinstein in Jupiter/ Palm Beach Gardens.
After a consultation/ x-rays I felt good about Dr. Weinstein. He has impressive qualifications and didn't push a bone graft (like another dentist I went to) or pad the bill with unnecessary procedures. I'm sure if he saw something that needed attention he would discuss it with me. Like I said, he is knowledgeable and qualified in his field.
I made the appointment to have the tooth extracted.
It went very good. He is very personable and made me feel at ease. His assistant was also very nice. I didn't need to be put under for this and
Dr. Weinstein was able to remove the tooth in sections because of how it broke. This made the removal go smoothly & pain free, without any complications.
