I called Deer Springs thanks to a Yelp search after I swallowed a good chunk of my molar during lunch the other day. Today was my appointment and of course I was a trembling mess of nerves as I walked in.
The office is immaculate, and also paperless. The women at the desk greet you with a smile that's more like a hug than anything. Karen really helped to ease my nerves. The doctor likes to get to know his patients a bit before sticking his hands in your mouth - which I truly appreciated. Courtney took approximately 647832 x-rays and it was really cool that they took every angle that someone can think of - all for the purpose of really being able to diagnose and also show you transformation.
Turns out I need a ton of work, but I knew that going in, because I was without a dentist for 15 years (11 of which I had a tongue ring that destroyed everything I had). They gave me some really fantastic options, walked me though each and every one and really made me feel comfortable about it all. The doctor wants to do as little invasively as possible, which tells me that he's in it for your best interest, not for what's best for his wallet.
Courtney gave me a thorough cleaning with a fluoride treatment at the end that she said will help to strengthen and repair my teeth; however, it tastes absolutely horrible. Haha. She never said it was going to taste good. :)
Overall, I've been happy thus far with my choice, I'll let you know once the heavy lifting has been done :D
