I used Dr. Churchman when was still living in Lake Charles. Good man, great dentist, his assistants are great, but he always gave me hell about my brushing habits.....lol

drillem 12-17-2013 05:22 PM

I'm a dentist, but I am in New Iberia. Dr. Daniel Perry is one. He went to school with a friend of mine here and that is who he recommends. Ill ask around and see if i can get some more names for you

If you ever in the Lafayette area, you might want to stay away from Dr. Toups.

I do not do zoom, the light does not really do much. Just gives you something to sit under while you are at the office. There are many in office systems out there, one the I have been hearing good thing about and have tried is boost. The biggest problem with the in office is that the concentration of the "Bleach" is high, so it can cause the teeth to become sensitive. Most of the time, unless you want it very quick, I make custom whitening trays for my patients that they can take home a bleach at home. This take a little longer, but you get the same or close to the same result. Also, there is usually less sensitivity this way, because the "bleach" is not as strong. I hope this helps

What about OTC type whiteners such as toothpaste, strips, etc? Any good reccomendations on these? With all of the coffee I drink they I have noticed that my teeth starting to slightly yellow.

Use Listerine Toothpaste, that's what my Dentist recommended, my teeth are white and cavity free.

Goooh 12-18-2013 06:10 PM

I do some, if they are impacted then most of the time I send them to the Oral Surgeon. If they are not impacted I will go get them.

Go see Dr. Kestrel. Dentistry on the Bayou. He is a duck hunter, great dentist and all around good guy. He will only do what needs to be done and will not screw you with unneeded crap.

How much unneeded crap can be done to your mouth without your consent?

Paulox86 12-19-2013 06:01 PM

My brother in law went to one in LC and walked out with an $1800 bill and a bunch of crap that was suggested that he needed or would make his tooth sensitivity less, and nothing helped. All the dentist did was lighten his wallet. What I was saying is that Kestel is honest and fair.
