I got a letter in the mail from my dentist. I thought it was a bill or something since I had recently been there twice: once to get my teeth cleaned, and again to get a cavity filled. But it wasn’t a bill. It was letter informing that he retiring. He mentions in the letter that he has treated some of his patients for over 25 years. I have been going to him for a little over 10 years.
He mentions in his letter that after a long and careful search, he found a husband and wife dental team to take over our care. Their office is located in a nearby building. He also included a letter from them. I am happy for him and I hope he enjoys his retirement. His hygienist and dental assistant have gone to work in this new office as well. So it will be an interesting change.My next dentist appointment isn’t until November and that is to get my teeth cleaned.
One bonus is that this new office sounds like they do more stuff such as crowns, bridges, root canals, etc. Actually, I don’t know all what my previous dentist did. I know he sent me to another dentist for my root canal.
I guess I will find out how it goes. If I don’t like them, I can get a reference for a new dentist from either my orthodontist or my periodontist.
