Dr. Araujo is very nice and sets you at ease. He lets you know the different options of treatment for you needs. He is not pushy, but listens to your concerns and lets you know the best course of action for you, but allows there are other options and discusses those with you as well. I felt that I understood all options and that the choice was mine to make. The treatment was comprehensive and I did not even need prescribed pain medication, and used motrin instead. I am very happy with the result of this treatment, and would recommend Dr. Araujo to anyone I know that needs periodontal treatment.
