Second opinions provide peace of mind and help ensure a diagnosis is sound. Additionally, a second opinion from a maxillofacial surgeon or experienced prosthodontist (our dynamic dental experts) can provide definitive solutions to issues you thought couldn’t be solved. For example, your previous dentist rules you out as a dental implant candidate, but our experts see a way to make implant dentistry a reality.

Our experts can provide a second opinion via regular in-person consultations or evaluate your case anywhere you live. For patients residing outside our locale, we rely on the following steps.

  • Email Our Top Dentists in Medina, OH: Email us at info@frontierdental.org with information about yourself and your specific issue. We’ll send you a list of needed medical records or a waiver.
  • Send the Requested Information: Typically, this includes x-rays, treatment notes, a one-hour second opinion fee, and similar information.
  • Review and Reply: Our second-opinion dentists will evaluate the information carefully and provide a detailed second opinion.

Why Seek a Second Opinion Dentist in Medina, OH?

Most diagnoses are simple. If you have a cavity, your dentist will treat it, so no second opinion is required.

However, if you have a complicated oral health dilemma, it’s always best to seek a second opinion from experienced specialists.

The top reasons to seek a second opinion include:

  • You were denied dental implants or other complex treatments due to not meeting candidacy requirements.
  • You have a tooth you were told could not be saved.
  • You don’t feel confident in your current treatment plan for a specific oral health issue.

Our experienced prosthodontist and oral surgeon have helped patients meet their smile goals and enjoy services other dentists first denied them.
