for a written quote. Instead, I found that I had got an "estimate", which apparently didn't include various possibly expensive items. Goodness knows what I would have finished up paying. My experience is that if you get a quote from Rudy, then that's what you will be asked to pay.

In regard to a night dental guard, the local dentist suggested that it would be a good idea for me [price unknown!], as it prevents damage to the crowns if you grind your teeth at night. But I don't believe that I grind my teeth at night and he couldn't give me any evidence that I do. Beware the optional extras!

As we all know, root canal treatment can be a little sensitive, either during or after the treatment. With Rudy, I just felt a tiny prick on my gum and no pain either during or after. He would have to be the sook's best friend. I've always said that if I ever want to prove how brave I am, it won't be in the dentist's chair!

A very well equipped, modern clinic. I would think that he could provide any treatment or service you could reasonably expect. Don't know about childbirth though, you could always ask him!
