Our approach
Nothing
out of order
Every practice offers the same list. What separates them is the order they read it in — and whether they tell you.
Look
first
An hour of looking before a minute of drilling. Charting, x-rays, photographs, and how the bite actually closes.
Keep what
still works
Preserve before crowning, crown before losing. Sometimes the honest answer is to wait six months and spend nothing.
Say the
number
Your share of the cost, in writing, before the chair goes back. If it changes mid-treatment, we stop and tell you.
Make it
invisible
Cosmetic work should read as a face, not as dentistry. Shade and shape are matched to you, not to a chart.
No
lectures
Years away is normal here. We start from where the mouth is today and work forward — with sedation and evenings if that helps.
