Opis

Dentists get a bad rap. Even though the dentist is often the first responder in the battle for a patient's healthy body, we sometimes fall prey to the fear that continues to circulate around this group of professionals sparked by long-ago stories about bad dental chair experiences. This book, A Cup of Coffee with "My" Dentist, hopes to change that-at least for a few dentists, anyway. The dentists whose stories reside within the covers of this book want you to know and understand them better as human beings and, as a bonus, they will teach you more about your teeth than you ever knew was possible. -What is "sedation dentistry," and are you a candidate? -Why not just pull that broken molar? Do you really need it? -Are dental implants right for you? -How long should I expect my natural teeth to last? (Can you spell f-o-r-e-v-e-r?) A Cup of Coffee with "My" Dentist will introduce some of the dedicated individuals who devote their days to caring for your mouth and, in so doing, make the rest of your body function the way it was meant to. You'll learn about their backgrounds, what inspires them, the fuel that drives them, and the reason that drive seems unquenchable.
