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.

Hi, It is hard to dx the problem and to offer an exact tx without any x-rays, but I think it sounds like not much tooth structure there any more , so the best tx would be an extraction, then single tooth implant or may be a bridge in the area or if there is enough tooth structure post and core and a crown; please feel to contact our ofice for a free consultation to discuss this matter.
