    February 10, 2020, was when the lower front of my teeth, an implant had fallen out 4 times in 10 years due to my grinding habit. My cleaning teeth dentist for 8 years, *****************************, knows me very well about my grinding problem. I asked her why wouldn't put in a bridge instead of an implant. She said it is not good to put a bridge on my lower teeth because it will damage the top of my teeth because of my grinding habit. The bridge itself is made of porcelain that is fused to metal, or composite resin, ************ said. However, ************ was on vacation for three weeks. So, I was hurrying to find a dentist that could implant. So, I found online Almeida & Bell Dental. I met with ************ and he suggested putting a bridge on the bottom of my teeth because he stated that putting in a new implant can damage my lower jaw. I refused it because I remember what ************ said about my grinding habit, just implant only. ************ kept saying that ************ is wrong for doing it. I was puzzled but told him I have an appointment with ************ in two weeks. ************ stepped down from his seat and head down and said, "Oh no," as he looked at his assistant. "I just ordered the bridge for him" I was like "WHAT" With I shouted out loud, "No, way, that's wrong!" ************ kept silent with his serious look. Meanwhile, I felt stuck, so I kept asking him, one urgent question, "Will that bridge cause damage to the top of my teeth due to my grinding habit." He answered, "No, with his head down." I repeat one more and he kept saying no. So, I go ahead the bridge was installed by ************ and he quickly said to me, "Be careful, your bridge is stronger than the top of your teeth" At that moment, I shouted "WHAT!?!" stunned and was like what the hell! First of all, why did he warn me right after he put the bridge in?! My top teeth have been damaged worse and unhappy. ************ is a clever, manipulative, aggressive approach and dishonest dentist during the ***** period. I will never forgive him!
