That's really all I wanted to hear. What frosts patients (me at least

makes everyone more suspicous and defensive. I want to trust my

I have to hope I get a good one, and after the fact, thru long
experience, will I really know for sure.

Unfortunately, in any one individual case, it is difficult to determine UNLESS the patient is examined.
I can assure you that my treatment has been misinterpreted or misrepresented to other dentists. It really is tough to know what went on unless you have personally been there. It isn't really "circling the wagons" so much as an understanding from personal experience that the message isn't always coming through clearly.
