Case Description
While I was pregnant with my twin girls my teeth seemed to get in horrible shape & 2 of them have broken (one on each side!!) & I do not even like to smile anymore. I do not have dental insurance, therefore, any financial info on this subject is needed as well. I am not sure if it is pertinent, however, I had RNY gastric bypass a few years ago, which my bariatric surgeon states may have not "helped' two bad teeth due to low calcium levels. Any info & help is greatly appreciated.

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.

It is impossible to diagnose your problem without x rays and a clinical exam.The only way I can advise you properly , would be to see you. We have financial programs which can help with costs but until we know what the issues are, it is impossible to estimate costs.Please call my office to set up an appointment to evaluate and discuss.Dr. David Zelby770 955 0550

Thank you for contacting us. It is not uncommon to have problems arise with your teeth during pregnancy. Many women have issues with their gums as well. The best advice I can give you is to schedule a comprehensive exam with x-rays to determine which areas need immediate attention. Our office is very conservative and will help you sequence your dental treatment so that you can actually afford to get it done. As well, we offer financing plans that work within most budgets. Please contact me directly and I will be happy to answer any other questions you may have. Thank you again and I look forward to hearing from you.Christina CampbellPatient CoordinatorDentistry at East Piedmont770-321-5558christina@smilesinatlanta.com
