Case Description
My daughter has a seizure disorder, and hit the counter one day during a seizure. One front tooth broke off, and the other permanent tooth has changed color and darkened. I think she will need to be asleep during the procedure as she is also developmentally challenged. We are relocating to the area shortly and I have no dentist yet. I know this situation may require a surgery in a hospital.

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.
