Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 I took the plunge and visited the dentist today and explained the problems I've been having. She couldn't have been better to me. She took the time to phone the Orthodontist she personally would recommend me to go to. The only drawback was that his office is over an hour away, which isn't very practical. He recommended an orthodontist only about 25 minutes away who is working in conjunction with other Orthos and Oral Surgeons on a study involving misaligned jaws and sleep apnea. The Orthodontist was very happy to take me on as a patient because of this. To make matters even better, my dentist wrote a personal letter to the orthodonist and faxed it immediately to explain my situation. I phoned the Ortho's office when I got home and they knew exactly who I was from the letter she had written. They scheduled me for a consultation on July 26, which would be the earliest they could get me in. Although, they put me on their cancellation list because I told them I was flexible. Well, no more than 5 minutes later they phoned and booked me for this coming Monday, June 27. Needless to say, I'm extremely happy with the service I received from my dentist. She took the time to answer all of my questions including the most important one: In her opinion, is this the right thing to do for practical and medical purposes or does she feel it is purely esthetical? She assured me it was the former and not the latter. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
