PHYLLIS'S PERSONAL DENTAL TEAM:  I have complete confidence in the following Doctors and their dental teams.  They share my standard of care and are aware of my intentions and ADVOCATE SUPPORT.   Please let them know I referred you!!   If I am your DENTAL ADVOCATE, they know I may accompany you and observe visits with the intention of understanding and supporting your recommended treatment.   -  I can assure you my personal dental team consider your personal dental health objectives, including how you want you teeth to look, then only what is in your best interest as they make treatment recommendations.   They will also lead you to have treatment overtime to support your financial budget. - IF YOU HAVE 'IN NETWORK' BENEFITS (PPO/HMO) PLEASE CALL YOUR CARRIER DIRECTLY TO DETERMINE if you can send an itemized statement from an 'out of network office.' 

 
Phyllis's promise:  1) Any office I advocate for will not diagnose 'unnecessary treatment' or provide treatment in an unsafe sequence.   

2) LONG LASTING DENTISTRY MUST BE PLACED ON A SOLID FOUNDATION!!   
 
3) How your teeth look is a personal choice!   IT IS UP TO YOU to communicate if you DO NOT WANT TO SPEND ADDITIONAL money for a natural, metal free appearing restoration.     (Please know the strongest 'filling material used for many years' is 'invisible tooth colored' material ... If you have decay, this is NOT CONSIDERED A COSMETIC PROCEDURE.)
    
MY STORY ... HOW I BECAME A 'DENTAL ADVOCATE':  I moved from Huntington Beach to LWV in 2010 with the intention of 'slowing down my career' and I could not be happier!!  (Click tab to lLIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT & ABOUT PHYLLIS WAITE for my contribution to the dental profession & experience).   After five years of listening to my 'neighbors' stories and experiences after they went to offices who advertise in our Globe, or are on their 'insurance list', I felt sad learning they were struggling find a dental team they trusted ...  I began to make it my MISSION to find a dental team I would trust with my referrals, and trust with my personal care!!  -  My search included calling multiple offices, talking with staff then requesting meetings to discuss their patient service and preventive care philosophy.    (Frankly, I was so disappointed in the uncaring 'tone' and attitude/communication skills of staff that it was a challenge to find an office I felt was worth my time to meet with.)   One of my goals was to find doctors 'younger than myself, or my long term trusted dentist in Fountain Valley' so they would outlast me!!  -  With complete confidence I CAN PROUDLY REFER YOU TO 'MY PERSONAL DENTAL TEAM OF DOCTORS AND ADMINISTRATIVE TEAMS'  - Their professional commitment to ongoing, state of the art training, team relations and personal values continue to impress me.
