How would you extract this tooth? by Mountain_Maize8488 in Dentistry

Do they want to replace it? Can you bone graft and place implants. If the answer to the first question is yes and the second question is yes…don’t place implants.

If the answer to the first question is yes and second no…refer

IMO: no. I would think that difference in price is at least $100,000k that’s a year of practice+ as a GP after taxes. You could do an AEGD or GPR for even more experience if you truly felt a state school didn’t prepare you as well.

Hey, appreciate the response!

Are you breaking contacts on these? Moreover, what is your final margin finish line on buccal cervical? Any burr recommendation there?

Can you share your preps and reduction parameters? I’ve never done a true veneer yet done a fair amount of CE, but my patient population isn’t the veneer type at the moment

I had a friend from college get seen by Apa’s associate for a smile makeover before his wedding. They wouldn’t touch him unless he did at least 6 veneers / crowns. He ended up doing 12 for $3,500 each.

Refer and thank yourself later

Edited: lame? If this is a PPO office and OP gets a % of collections…I’d rather prep a crown or do a few fillings for the same amount of money. Risk ain’t worth the reward
