My experience with Dr. Alford hear more like a horror story. I had emergency Moderately to a dentist and they gave me his address. I told him that I have a toothache in the upper left jaw half. What came next was the height. The dental assistant told me that one should not make a bit of cosmetics. When I went back home, the doctor had me cut my beautiful beloved four front teeth, although I went to him because of toothache.
I let the receptionist say that I was shocked. The doctor thought it was still not necessary for you to contact me.
When I got home, I went from dentist to dentist and everyone assured me that you can not undo this disaster.
Since that day I am unhappy because of this mishap of Dentists.
Never in my life I would go to his practice.

A dentist for the people, Dr. Alford takes the time to educate his patients and to weigh the pros and cons of different procedures. I am more impressed with each visit.
