What you'll hear at the consult

Dr. Applewhite starts by listening.

She asks what you have noticed, looks at your mouth and your X-ray, and shows you what she sees. If you need treatment, you hear the options, what each costs and what happens if you wait. You leave with a plan and an estimate in writing.
