I first took my mother to Dr Goldman and even though she was scared she let him do his job. She was stunned that it was not nearly as bad as she had imagined. Many trips with my mother later I found that I too needed more than a simple cleaning.... so I let him perform his dentistry on me. I was pleased when it was over and I too was surprised at his ability to get the job done without a bunch of pain. My partials now let me forget that I really don't have enough bottom teeth to chew without them. I would recommend Dr Goldman to anybody who asks.
