In our combined 100 years + experience, we’ve seen it all. The Good, The Bad and the Ugly! We can assist you in formulating a thorough and complete case plan. From the most basic cases to complete rehab cases, we can offer you complex plan outlines as well as the fees involved. We offer this consulting service either in your office individually, or together with your dental team and the patient if so desired.

A few other items may also be required by the clinician and may include:
We pride ourselves on our success rate with both simple and complex cases. We believe that success in dentistry is only as good as your team is. Remember If You Fail to Plan then you must be Prepared to Fail.
