Case Description
I have had alot of fillings done ~ 15 -16 yrs ago along with a root canal and crown on the last molar, lower rt. All molars have large fillings except upper rt. 1st molar on lower lft and rt have fillings, but now each has a crack causing sensitivity to cold and hot. Lower lft also sensitive when biting down if there is a seed or nut or something very crunchy. I have a dental plan with what I consider a very low yrly allowance. This will make this work very difficult financially. Help!

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
