Dr. Patel
Dr. Patel came into dentistry because it sits at the meeting point of two things he wanted from a career. It helps people directly, and it keeps changing enough that it never becomes routine. Materials and technology move constantly, which means the job involves learning something new more or less permanently.
What he values most is the length of the relationship. Seeing a patient at six months old, then at six, then at sixteen, and knowing the rest of the family too, is a different kind of practice from treating strangers once.

How the Practice Works
There are so many reasons to love taking care of your pearly whites at The Tooth Experience.
Care for Every Age
Patients range from about six months old to their nineties. That is deliberate. A practice that sees only adults sends the children elsewhere, and a practice that sees only children hands them over at eighteen. Here a family books together and stays together.
What We Do and What We Do Not
The practice covers general dentistry, surgical dentistry including dental implants, cosmetic work and emergency care. Because the surgical side is done in house, an implant case does not get passed between practices.
Where a case is better handled by a specialist, Dr. Patel refers rather than attempts it, which is a decision made in the patient's interest rather than the practice's.
Five Years and Two Offices
The practice has been running five years and now operates from two locations because one office could not cover the geography. Rather than split the standard of care between them, the same dentist, the same equipment and the same appointment length apply at both. The only difference is the day of the week each one opens. Examples of completed work are in the before and after gallery, and Dr. Patel writes on oral health in the dental blog.
