What should I expect at the office once I am seated?
We are going to take an x-ray(s) of the area in question. Dr. Chakalov is going to evaluate the area of concern, perform tests to examine the extend of tooth damage and/or source of pain and finally using the information from the x-ray(s) he will explain your treatment options. In some cases a simple drug prescription could resolve the problem. In other  a more comprehensive treatment may be required. Your options will be explained in details and we will render the service which best fits your needs.
