A few days ago, a lady, a first-time patient at the Clinic, asked me about the guarantee she had for the treatments she was going to have...
I am often asked…
If the implants they are going to put in are for life...
How many years will the crowns last…
Or
The warranty period for porcelain veneers.
I reply to everyone…
I don't know...
Well, if teeth, in theory, are meant to last a lifetime!
and people for one reason or another end up losing them…
What I know is that anything we place in our mouths to replace dental structures is inferior to what Nature created.
And if a perfect natural work can be spoiled, any alternative can also be spoiled…
I also know that well-executed treatments have greater durability... and better, and (usually) more expensive materials, likewise...
Neither I nor anyone else can guarantee anything regarding 100% in Medicine.
What I can guarantee to people is that I will do everything within my power to provide them with the best possible treatment for their individual situation.
In terms of the techniques to be used… Of the materials applied… Of the support and monitoring provided… Of the maintenance required from then on…
My guarantee is to make all treatment plans with long-term durability in mind.
This is done by knowing from experience what works, what lasts, or not.
Making “patches” and looking at a situation in isolation doesn't work...
Cheaper alternatives don't really either...
On the other hand, studying cases with a global perspective and...
Executing a plan with a beginning, middle, and end guarantees us a much higher probability of success!
Another thing my patients take for granted is that I and my Team will be there for them when they need us most…
We truly care about people!
We're not going to close or disappear overnight…
Being a “caring” clinic makes a big difference!
And it has great value...
One hug
