I hadn't seen a dentist for about 20 years. Someone recommended this Dr to me. When I went to him for the x-rays & consultation he didn't make me feel ashamed or emarrassed for neglecting to see someone for so long! Then he took his time explaining my options. His receptionist Vickie is very helpful & knows a lot about the denistry field also. His staff is great ! I ended up having an oral surgeon extract all but 2 of my bottom teeth, Dr. Chisteckoff did 2 rootcanals then precision attachments to those 2 teeth, I hav what they call overdentures that click on to those attachments. He was very gentle & patient, I think he's great!
