Why?
COURSE BACKGROUND
We met Keve in November 2010; she came to our office and quickly pointed out that she was terrified of dentists and that she had awful experiences on and off with dentists. She then shared with me that she had just gotten married and had a congenitally missing lateral incisor (tooth #10); for her wedding pictures she did not want to wear the old flipper her dentist had made for her when she was a teenager but wanted a more permanent solution for her tooth so she chose who she was told was the best dentist in the area to do so.
I casually asked her who had done the implant for her and she replied she didn’t remember so I went ahead and asked her who had restored it for her and she mentioned that the same dentist restored it. I then asked how soon before her wedding she had the implant done and restored and how long did it take and she said it just took an hour, included the crown and she had paid $2,000 for it. We dentists can relate to my next question:
“Keve, do you mind if I take a radiograph?” and there it was…
Many times in situations like this we feel helpless, but this time was different. I knew it was time to show Keve that our profession is exceptional, predictable and an awesome rewarding experience if the doctor surrounds him/herself with a team of experts that have the opportunity to carefully evaluate the patient’s needs and communicate with each other to create exceptional results. Our team met on many occasions and decided to not only provide her with the best treatment plan possible but that we would all share the costs of her treatment without her spending a single cent. I guess sometimes enough is enough…
Let us introduce you to Keve’s case:
