Extraction of bad tooth and implant of bone, requiring gum surgery. This went very well and was not very painful, I did not need as many painkillers as I expected. Dr Zarkesh explained everything very well before, during, and after the surgery. For such a drastic procedure it felt very gentle (which I'd put down to the good Dr's skill).
Then insertion of a pin to allow a crown to be put on. Again, really nice work. Dr Zarkesh was very thorough, explained everything all the time, and is clearly the best at what she does. No pain at all. For a tough procedure it felt very comfortable and easy. She took great care to do a superb job and paid special attention to areas in the structure of my mouth that could have caused problems.
She also encouraged me to have a ENT specialist check out some things that the X-Rays showed up. Definitely someone who takes supreme care of her patients and made me feel that she was providing the best care possible.
Now, after everything has settled down, the tooth works great and I've had no problems at all. Such a huge relief.
Cost - it wasn't cheap but I don't know how it would compare to other dentists.
All the ladies in the office are really nice and friendly, they're great.
