The staff were friendly and helpful. Dr. Cotturo has a relaxing manner and he offered me a choice of types of anaethesia, I opted for novacaine alone. The tooth to be removed was a lower back molar with very little left above the gum and a pin from a previous procedure at another Dentist. He very patiently applied his skills and experience to the extraction, then took a second x-ray to ensure the whole thing was gone. He advised me how to keep the socket clean until it healed and gave me precriptions for pain killers and anti-biotics. The cost was a bit higher than I was advised originally, but this was a surgical removal rather than a simple extraction and I was satisfied that it was value for money. Indeed, other Dentists I contacted wanted to take a full jaw x-ray costing over $100, which would have been completely unnecessary for a single tooth extraction. The Doctor used the time-served x-rays which cost about $10 a piece. This is an honest man.
