Both of my now teenage children have seen Dr. Ricketts. He offers air abrasion for their cavities. The procedure was painless, NO SHOTS, and best of all, did not damage the rest of the tooth. The fillings are sooooo small I can't even see them. If I hadn't been there to actually watch the procedure, I would think nothing was done. This prevents fillings so huge you later have to crown the tooth if filling falls out. My children's teeth still look great. He also bonded my son's chipped front tooth and it looks perfect. Would definitely recommend him. (Dr. Ricketts is no longer at this location, he is in the town & country area now).
