Make the appointment: Be honest with your new dentist. Admit that you've neglected your teeth, and that you are ashamed. But also tell them that you are committed to restoring your mouth to a healthy state. Get an estimate and stick to your game plan. Your dentist will be glad a motivated patient has joined their practice.. We enjoy helping people realize their dream smile. All the best....
