Denture Near Me in Medford, MA

I went to Advanced Dental Care in Plainville, MA to get four front crowns replaced. I had been going to “overly qualified” dentists (3 of them), but I left unsatisfied every time. Plus, I feel like they wanted my money more than they wanted to help me. It was always one problem on top of another, and no one cared to fix my smile correctly the first time. I was impressed with Dr. Naiman as soon as I met him. He actually listened to me and told me he could do what I wanted. He told me everything was fixable and that I wouldn’t leave dissatisfied. He’s very nice, and he loves his job. Plus, he’s really a tooth artist! You must have artistic talent and a great ceramist to be an excellent cosmetic dentist, and he definitely has both! I’m so pleased with my new crowns. They look amazing and natural, and I have no pain between the implant crown and the front tooth for the first time in years! They’re not only comfortable, but they look great too! I’m so happy that I can’t help but smile all the time! He put a ton of thought and time into my procedure, and I appreciate him, his ceramist, and his staff for being so kind, understanding, skilled, organized, and patient. It takes one awesome team to be able to fix a problem like mine, and I’m so thankful for every one of them!
