Dr. Carlson left my braces on too long, and as a result I will lose 4 and probably 5 of my front, bottom teeth. He tried to tip these teeth, but my dentist said I have a prognathous jaw, and the teeth were not going to move. As a result of a number of years of braces with rubber bands and head gear, the roots of the four front, bottom teeth resorbed. Dr. Carlson did not tell me about the resorbtion. My dentist did. My dentist sucked in in breath in alarm and surprise when he saw the x-rays, and saw I had virtually no root structure in those four teeth any more.
In my opinion, Dr. Carlson runs an assembly line operation. He has too many patients in chairs at the same time, and depends on his assistants to do most of the work. It seems to me that he is too busy trying to pay overhead and make money. I think he needs to slow down, reduce his expenses, and work more conscienciously.
In his favor, he seems to have a lot of confidence, is very gregarious, and had good rapport with his patients. Also, his staff seems to be top notch.
I am going to need at least 3 implants, one crown and a bridge of 4 teeth. This will cost will be at least $10,000.
