Case Description
I'm 23, have all of my wisdom teeth and I'm trying to catch up on my dental health. A lack of finances and young carelessness has started taking a major toll. I went for an examination & cleaning today. I need root canals on 4 and 29 IMMEDIATELY, and fillings on other teeth. After getting back on the right track, I'd like a whitening procedure performed. The price the dentist gave me is very expensive. I'm hoping to find quality, yet affordable dental care in the Warner Robins, Macon and/or Vidalia, Lyons areas. Please help! gembruhaha@yahoo.com.

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.
