Dr Chiafair is very nice. He is also very, very good. He had to extract my tooth before he could do the implant. Hearing him take out the tooth was more painful than his actually pulling it out! That's right...the sound was worse than the pain. (I was just sure it would hurt, and when i heard the tooth crack and he pulled it out, i was a astonished that i felt no pain.) I kept waiting for the pain to kick in...but it never did! He did the whole implant process without practically any pain. I was most impressed. I found out after the fact, that my insurance didn't cover the implant. that was far more painful than anything Dr Chiafair did!
