First I want to establish myself as an experienced dental patient. I have been seenby about 15 dentists in 45 years. I have had good and bad work. I have 6 crowns, 4 root canals, many fillings, had braces on the the tops as a kid and then on the bottoms as an adult.
After having problems with two crowns falling off next to each other in 6 months, I was very upset with Dental Associates of Quincy where I'd been going for almost 20 years, (interspersed with other dentist and dental specialists). Upset, I wanted to see their best guy there (read negative comments about Dr. Woolfe).
Dr. Lewis Hootnick was the first to talk to me like a knowledgeable, intelligent person. He is the head guy there now and I think he cares dearly about his reputation which translates into doing good work. I think he will treat me better than any other dentist I have seen in the past. He said he would make things right.
If you go to Dental Associates in Quincy, I would recommend you see only him. I will keep posting to see how this works out.
We need to be our own advocates for good dental care, do the research, check the credentials and complain when things aren't right. Bad dental work can cost more money by hurting your other teeth.
