Wainright & Wassel, DDS

At my semiannual appointment today, after taking x-rays, my hygienist gently and thoroughly cleaned and polished my teeth. Dr. Prettyman then examined my teeth and my x-rays. The x-rays revealed some problems for my dentist to fix: 1. Cavity that needs fillings on 2 surfaces. 2. Cracked crown that needs replacing. 3. Loose crown on a 15-year-old dental implant. I made one appointment and my dentist will fix all three problems during that one appointment. At my appointment 6 months ago, I learned about infection under two old root canals. I knew I had problems because I had swollen glands in my neck. Dr. Prettyman recommended oral surgeons who could remove the crowns and put in dental implants. I’ve had the old crowns removed and infections cleared up. At the end of December, the implants wiil be placed. At the appropriate time, I will return to Wainright&Wassel for my new crowns. YAY!
