When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:

Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.

Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.

Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

I understand that you are in a difficult situation. A few suggestions: First, try the Dental Options program through the Columbus Dental Society. Reduced or no fee donated care. Another choice might be the dental school at OSU.

Good luck to you.

To deal with your dental needs AND your financial needs, I would suggest that you contact Dental Options at 1-888-765-6789. They are a sponsored organization that promotes access to dental care. They can assess your needs and help find a local dentist to meet your needs, on a low to no fee basis depending on qualifications.

I hope that your problems can be addressed to your satisfaction.
