Key Takeaways  :


Crown and bridge dentistry has decades of proven success when grounded in basic principles.


Implants are valuable but should be a last resort—not the first option.


Longevity and patient health should outweigh convenience and economics in treatment planning.


Dentistry is both science and artistry, rooted in legacy and carried forward through mentorship.


Patients should always ask questions, seek second opinions, and carefully weigh invasiveness before agreeing to extractions or implants.


Saving natural teeth, when possible, leads to better long-term outcomes than relying solely on implants.


True professional progress comes from blending tradition with innovation—not replacing one with the other.
