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.

We can recement your temporary crown - when are you scheduled for your final crown to be cemented?Or, most pharmacies sell a product in the toothpaste aisle called Temp It (buy the crown version).Toothpaste works okay for a few hours.

If the tooth doesn''''t bother you, nothing.If it does, put it back on with a dab of toothpaste inside and see if it stays on; avoid chewing on that side. Or you can try putting it back in with some denture adhesive like polident.This advice is intended to be interim in nature and not a substitute for a first-hand examination by your dentist.
