I called Dr. Golpa's office last week. I spoke w/a lady who seemed kind and helpful. I told her I would call back...since then I've called 3X !?! I'm just a little (lot) nervous. The gentleman who answered the phone has been a great help. He seems laid back. Perfect. I sorta need that. I'm afraid of dentists since my last root canal ('06). I had a toothache, worst ever. I went to a dentist close and in a hurry to get rid of the thumping pain. I'll never, ever forget that jerk. He simply wanted the grand for the root canal. I don't think that he even knew how to do it. All guess work. His staff holding me down while I cry. I've had A LOT of rough appt. until then-he took the cake and all of the trust that I built up over decades of work on my mouth.
Needless to say, but relieving, I've been absolutely neglecting my mouth. 4 dental procedures done in 11 yrs. All under anesthesia. I'll be glad to know that when this is through I won't have to pay and cry and shake and yadda yadda etc etc.
If anyone has any info regarding my up coming surgery w/ Dr. Golpa please msg. me. I'd like to know...well, ANYTHING.
Thx.

I'm almost 5 months post procedure and it was the easiest dentist experience I ever had! Please read my review than ask any questions you can think of. It was the best thing I've done for myself in years! K :)

The nice gentleman you spoke to on the phone has to be Carlos. He is the best and always helpful, always while smiling, lol. Have you had your surgery yet? Mine was 8/24/16. Hope everything goes/went well. You will not be disappointed. Good luck to you.

Hi, I notice you had your all on 4 surgery a few days before I had mine. My all on 4 was done 8-31-16 by ClearChoice in Walnut Creek, CA. My question is are you on a soft diet or can you eat freely. I'm on soft diet until May 2017 when my final zirconia bridge will be delivered. The soft food thing is driving me crazy. If you can eat freely what is Dr. Golpa doing different than the other doctors that allow you to eat what you want ?

Are you in temporary bridges? If so then that could probably be why you're on a soft diet for so long. Temps aren't as durable as the perms. I had my permanent bridges put in the day after extractions. That might be a plausible reason. The only other thing I can think of is the titanium bar that Dr. Golpa uses to strengthen the bridges. I couldn't find a dentist in my area who even offered the titanium bar as an option. Good luck to you. :)
