Warren, Michigan Dentist Reveals Importance of Dental Experience
Dr. Robert Antolak: Hi. My name is Dr. Robert Antolak at thegentledentist.com in Shelby Township, Michigan. The phone number is (586) 247-3500.
Dr. Gregory Apsey: Hi, I’m Dr. Greg Apsey. I’m practicing in Warren, Michigan. (586) 573-7700 and my web address, drapseydds.com. And, did you ever wonder, who your Dentist goes to, for their dentistry? A lot of our patients ask that question.
Dr. Robert Antolak: Well, I can answer that question. I go to see Doctor Apsey
Dr. Gregory Apsey: And of course I go to see Doctor Antolak
Dr. Robert Antolak: And why do we have this relationship? Well, it started back many years ago. I know the type of quality care he does. We actually started in dental school at the University of Michigan in 1983. We sat next to each other alphabetically.
Dr. Gregory Apsey: Right. And so our first impressions were done on each other. Our first injections were done on each other. Yeah. We practiced everything on each other, pretty much. And to this day we still trust each other completely. This is a great guy. A great dentist. Great friend.
Dr. Robert Antolak: And we get asked a lot of types of questions. Well so, who does your dentist work? I say I get my friend, Dr. Apsey. You know, he did a couple veneers for me and 10 years ago at least. And I never even know if they’re on in all my care that he’s provided for me.
Dr. Gregory Apsey: And Dr. Antolak adjusted my bite to perfection and I also have a gold crown which is holding up to this day. It’s been 10 years and going strong.
Dr. Robert Antolak: So when we have the need for any dental care, we provide on each other. And one thing too is, I think it’s worth mentioning, is the fact that, we can’t do dentistry isolated on our own. You know, as dentists, in our profession we are here usually by ourselves and it requires an effort for us to go out and get either a second opinion on something or just to try to consult with each other. And the beauty of having this relationship, this friendship we’ve had for almost 30 years is the fact that we can go out to a dinner, let’s say. We’ll bring some cases with us. We’ll bring models with us. And x rays, digital x rays, that is. And we’re able to then over a meal or whatever, we can talk about a case which is going provide better care for you.
Dr. Apsey: One clear benefit of this friendship to our patient’s has been all the time that we spent together over dinner or just together in each other’s practice, discussing treatments. We dentists tend to practice alone. But you know it’s really better to bounce ideas. When cases are difficult, which they often are, it’s really nice to develop a plan but then have someone to bounce it off of. And my good friend Dr. Antolak has been my go-to guy all through the years. And, and I for him. We get together regularly and discuss your treatment and decide maybe what really the best is. I really value that in our relationship. It’s really been wonderful.You actually have the benefit of two dentists talking and thinking about your treatment as opposed to just one. So, anyways, thanks for being there for me.
Dr. Antolak: That’s true. We’ve been doing this for years. And so we’ll continue to do so, and provide better care for our patients, right?
Dr. Apsey: So, if you happen to live in the Shelby Township area this is your man, Dr. Robert Antolak, he’s the best.
Dr. Antolak: Ditto if you’re in the Warren, Michigan area and you’re in the vicinity please give Dr. Apsey a call, he’s a great guy and you’ll love his dentistry. So, thank you and have a great day.
Dr. Apsey: Thanks for listening.
