It seems to me that a successful dental practice would acknowledge these overriding concerns and respond positively to them.
In particular, concerns #3 and #4 can be addressed by an affordable, effective and safe preventive maintenance program which really works to minimize further restorations, root canals and extractions (and cost).
This is what Dr. Jan Chithalen found in introducing Prevora to his patients. His first responders were in their 70s, had lots of fillings and risk factors, and simply wanted a more manageable dental treatment plan. Watch Dr. Chithalen speak about these patients by clicking on this short video.
