The doctors I have on this list are the best of the best. I update the list periodically. Using 1-800- Dentist is useless because this company charges doctors to be on the list. The only criteria they have is for the doctor to pay them. I worked with each doctor on this list, I trained some of them, some taught me. Each doctor on the list I personally know and trust.
