HI Everyone - I need a little help. Anyone know a good dentist that may not be booked out until August? I had a crown fall out and I need it put back in it's rightful place.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Kim

I think most the dentists on STX are booked for weeks ahead. But if it's urgent, I think someone would give you a slot if a cancellation comes up. Just keep calling and asking nicely.

Hi Kim,
I use Dr. Buska, who works with Dr. Kenses, so same number as above. I really like him. However, if you can't get into him, Dr. van Heckman takes emergency (even new patients) on Fridays. He is in the Beeston Hill Medical Center. 692-9800

Gary uses him, and likes him fine.

FYI - Went to Mr. Fabio in Sunny Isle for basic cleaning. This guy's dental picks and other instruments were actually rust inhibited. Beyond belief, people can practice here with substandard equipment? Needless to say, I quickly made an excuse to cancel my appointment. Really scary. I refrain from addressing this guy as a doctor.

Thanks, Surfer! Good to know. Disclaimer: I haven't been to any of these, but that is one I will cross off my list.

I just got done with my appointment with Dr Buska at Dr Kenses office (692-9770 ). I give him two HUGE thumbs up. My appointment was at 11 and they took me in right at 11 if not sooner. Dr. Buska was waiting for me in the exam room. They were courteous, professional, prompt AND...best of all, my crown is back in with no problems. I'm going back for a cleaning next week. Dr Buska personally was very friendly and professional. A real class act.

Would recommend him to anyone.!!!

Thanks again to everyone who took time to give me input!!!
