Full Disclosure Dentistry
Have you ever come home after a physician's or dental visit, sat down and realized that you don't really know what treatment is recommended or why it's necessary? We all tend to nod in agreement during these discussions displaying our powers of comprehension of subject matter totally foreign to us, but once home, the ruse is no longer required and our understanding falls short. In addition, maybe the doctor and staff were extremely busy that day and the verbal description given was too brief or just inadequate for full understanding.
Sooner or later this happens to everyone and we understand that. We also understand a picture is worth a thousand words so we incorporate intra-oral imagery routinely in our practice and display them on medium screen hi-def monitors. The images may not always be pretty but you will see what we see, know what we know and be fully involved during your treatment plan decision making. Full Disclosure Dentistry.....allows you to see the problems and make informed decisions that are in YOUR best interest.
We utilize Full Disclosure Dentistry when treating teeth as well ! This way the patient can follow along in real time during their care. Photos are printed of all important images for patient/spouse education, case documentation and dental insurance claim requirements.
A patients trust must be earned.....allow us to earn yours with Full Disclosure Dentistry!
