When I first became a patient of Dr. David Blende and then Dr. Brand Ahn in 2008, I had zero trust in dentists and periodontists. After undergoing unnecessary and harmful orthodontic treatment 20 years before, I was left with a multitude of dental issues and a good reason not to trust either a dentist's recommendation or skill level. Finally, someone referred me to Dr. Blende and Dr. Blende recommended Dr. Ahn.
I have great respect for Dr. Ahn–it took me awhile. I have grown to trust him, knowing that he is not recommending unnecessary treatment, that I can trust what he says, that he will be patient and understanding, and most important his skill level is impeccable.
Kimberly, his dental assistant, has been extremely helpful, kind and a cheerleader to my progress as I slowly made the decision to have dental implants. The bone graft and dental implant procedures were minimally troublesome and I am very pleased with the results. Only sorry that I had not become a patient of his years before.
