5 /5 Cynthia Lewis: Dr. Chernick is an outstanding dentist whom I have been using for many years. However, a series of events led to writing this, my only, review of his work.
After having a root cutting and an implant screw placed in my front tooth by a dental specialist, I was left with a front tooth that was crooked, yellow, and unsightly – which was not the way the tooth was before the procedures. Because this tooth was smack in the front of my mouth, needless to say, I was not happy with my appearance. Yet, I needed to wait at least six months until the implant screw had fully bonded to my bone before anything could be done. In the meantime, because I was embarrassed with the way my tooth looked, I began covering my mouth whenever I smiled.
Since I had already had implant screws placed in two bottom teeth, those were the first to get crowns placed. In other words, the front tooth had to wait its turn to get a crown (a tooth) put on the implant screw. After about 9 months, the ugly yellow crooked tooth fell out of my mouth. This time I went to Dr. Chernick to repair it since it was nearly time to have the crown made anyway. Somehow, Dr. Chernick reshaped, whitened and straightened the tooth before placing it back in my mouth. I nearly jumped for joy when I saw myself. I felt like celebrating. He had given me my smile back!
Once my crown came about three weeks later, another occasion for celebration occurred. I had been quite worried that the implant tooth would not match my other front tooth. However, there was no need to worry. My own tooth and the implant tooth were so perfectly matched that no one can tell which is which. Unbelievable!
Without question, Dr. Chernick is a special dentist who is not only uniquely skilled, but also is a person listens to any concerns, is gentle while working in your mouth, and is one of the kindest people I know. In today’s world, such a combination is hard to find. I can’t thank him enough for giving me my smile back – wider than ever.
