Have you ever visited a new dentist and been told you need a “smile makeover,” with the implication that if your teeth were whiter and straighter, you would be more successful and happier? Or maybe you’ve never had a cavity – and now, you have a half dozen that require immediate attention. Root canal, crown, or implant: which procedure is best for your situation? NOTHING BUT THE TOOTH is a ready guide to dental health. It begins with the most important question: how to choose a competent and ethical dentist – and ends with a discussion about technological advances in the dental field. Let this book help you communicate better with your dentist.
