My life has changed. After a botched job with another dentist, resulting in pain, I was fortunate to find Dr. Pontynen and his wonderful assistant, Wendy.
By the time I got to Dr. Pontynen I was thoroughly frightened of dentists. I was in pain because the teeth on top did not match those on the bottom and so they would strike each other. As a result I already had one root canal and had I not found Dr. Pontynen I'm sure there would have more, if not even loss of teeth.
Dr.Pontynen and Wendy were kind and understanding, nothing phony about them. They are top notch people, friendly and warm and they do everything the right way. No shortcuts here.
For someone as frightened as I was, I experienced virtually little pain. That was one of the reasons I was referred by a medical doctor to Dr. Pontynen. My fear was overwhelming and it was clear I required a gentle but expert dentist. Dr. Pontynen and his excellent assistant, Wendy, are all of that and more.
Dr. Pontynen, who re-did all of my teeth, top and bottom, is a perfectionist. He is youngish but patient and listens closely. He's up on the most recent research.
If you go through the procedure as he recommends you will have the most amazing teeth and gums.
