Case Description
My husband has a metal plate in his jaw. He went to the dental school yesterday because he has broken off two of his lower right teeth. They would not touch it due to the metal plate he has. (It seems to run right against the roots of these teeth) It was put there years ago due to a broken jaw. He is on medication for infection, and he was reffered to an oral surgeon. We can barely afford gas right now. Is there anything out there to help? I live in Mesa Arizona. ANYTHING HELPS. We were hoping for someone who would take payments. Thanks.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
