Hello,<\/p>\n

I was wondering how you determine\/identify the Doctors listed in your referral page. Do they apply to be listed or do you have prior knowledge of their reputation and skills? I am in need of a dental\u00a0implant<\/a> and am exploring services in the Austin TX area. All of my top teeth are crowned (1994) so I also need someone with the skill to restore my smile by matching the new crown to the rest of my teeth.
\nThank you,
\nAnn from Texas<\/p>\n

Ann,
\nThe listings we have sometimes come from dentists whose reputation I know through my association with the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry or other cosmetic dentists. Sometimes\u00a0dentists approach me, and most of those requests are turned down.\u00a0In the case of Austin, where you are, I didn’t know Dr. Sweeney, but found his name on a list of dentists that I have access to – dentists who had passed the written examinations for accreditation with the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. While this speaks of his knowledge, it doesn’t speak of his ability to apply that knowledge. So I checked out close-up photographs of his work to verify his skill, and examined his other credentials. His work was beautiful. I have since met him at a dental meeting.<\/p>\n

There are a number of listing services on the Internet that list dentists. However, I have taken the risk of personally recommending any dentist I list, so I check them out to make sure I am comfortable with the dentistry they do. I am not aware of any other website that actually recommends dentists the way I do, and it’s a matter of personal integrity to me that the dentists listed\u00a0meet\u00a0high standards. I am confident that Dr. Sweeney, whom I recommend in Austin, has first class artistic ability and does excellent dentistry. So you are in good hands if you go there.<\/p>\n

I do publish a disclaimer<\/a> that is linked from every page in the referral section, to protect me legally. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the Boards of Dentistry in each of their respective states, to protect the public from incompetent dentistry. I’m not intending to\u00a0take their place in that role.\u00a0And the recommendations are my opinion, not my guarantee. I am not in a position to be able to insure that no dentist I list will ever make a mistake. But in my educated and informed professional opinion, the dentists I list are all excellent.<\/p>\n

I hope this helps.
\n– Dr. Hall<\/p>\n
