This practice is really special to me because not only do we have a lot of senior dentists that have so much experience, but it's also very special in the fact that we really push excellence in dentistry. So, for me, what excellence in dentistry means is that I can provide the best care to the patient, and sometimes that means doing minimal treatments, sometimes it means doing the most maximum treatment. The biggest thing for me is explaining to each patient, “These are your options.” There's always minimum, middle, maximum. So the most important thing is that I explain to them, “This is what we can do. We can try this first.” Some people kind of call it hurl of dentistry, but it's important because the patients, sometimes when they come into the dentist's, they don't have an option. They tell them, “You need to get the tooth extracted,” or “You need the root canal.” But there's not always that ... it's not always that extreme.
Sometimes it's like, “Look, we can provide this treatment and see how the tooth responds. And then you come back when you're in excruciating pain, and then we do the root canal.” So the thing that I find most special about this practice is that we really let the patient ... educate the patient and let the patient decide what they wanna do, because at the end of the day, it's the patient's mouth. It's his oral cavity that he or she needs to make the most educated decision on. So I think patient education is huge, and we strive to do that in this practice.
