Case Description
In Dec. 2004 my dentist in Ohio recommended that I have my wisdom teeth removed, as 2 of 3 of them had cavitites. Recently they started hurting off-and-on, with the pain now daily, especially after eating. I've been putting this off since I don't have dental insurance, but I now need to be seen to take care of this. Thanks.

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.
