Dr. Dorgan Selected as Top Dentist again
The only double winner in Main Line Today’s Annual List of Top Dental Professionals
Each year, the publication, Main Line Today, contacts more than 1,000 dentists in Montgomery, Chester and Delaware counties and asked them to name their top picks in nine areas of dentistry. Making the list in a category – particularly based on the votes of fellow dentists – is a great honor. Being recognized in two categories is an amazing achievement and extremely rare.
That’s just what happened to our own Dr. Jay Dorgan. Dr. Dorgan was recognized in both the “General Dentist” category as well as the “Cosmetic Dentist” category. The ever modest Dr. Dorgan is humbled by the recognition. “It really is an honor to be singled out by your peers,” said Dr. Dorgan. “I have many dentists as patients so they not only know me professionally, they have first hand experience with my work. So that makes it even more special.”
Main Line Today started its “Best of” series in 1997, so this year marks its tenth year. The vast majority of categories that are covered, including restaurants, spas/salons, nightlife, are voted on by readers and editors of Main Line Today. Only the medical and dental categories are based on a jury of peers.
Dr. Dorgan was among those recognized at the tenth annual Best of the Main Line and Western Suburbs Party which was held in July. It was a special evening for a very special, and deserving dentist. Congratulations, Dr. Dorgan!
We've Moved Into Our New Office!
Of course, the biggest change is that we've just moved to our new facility in Unionville, after practicing in West Grove for twenty-four years. It's an exciting time for all of us, one that reflects the revolutionary changes occurring in dentistry---a trend toward more comfort, pampering, and control over dental disease. Now it's all about creating a pleasant, soothing experience that you can look forward to.
We are so happy you've moved along with us, and we hope you will enjoy the comfort amenities we've made available. Of course, in some extremely important ways, we haven't changed at all because we still hold to the same philosophy of focusing on lifelong dental health and function. As always, we're here to help you achieve your goals of improving the function, health and esthetics of your smile.
We hope you'll continue to enjoy a great relationship with us at our new location.
T-Scan II
The Occlusal Analysis Solution
We have added the T-Scan II to our high tech equipment to allow us to better analyze and adjust our patient’s bites when we detect or suspect problems. The degree of sophistication is unbelievable since we can now record in real-time the teeth contacts in 3-dimensions as you bite down and slide your teeth to the side or the front. We can then review the data looking at each contact every 0.01 seconds of the 3–10 seconds recording.
The T-Scan is a grid-based sensor technology and occlusal analysis system that allows for an easier, more accurate way to measure occlusal timing and force. The T-Scan plugs right into our computers in the treatment room. The vivid graphics makes seeing a bite discrepancy easy to see. This data can be printed and will provide valuable documentation for patient education, patient files and insurance documentation.
The T-scan will help reduce the risk of :
- Porcelain fractures
- Ineffective splints
- Unstable dentures
- Traumatized teeth
Veneer Offer
We are very excited to offer one lucky patient the opportunity to have veneers done by Dr. Dorgan for FREE! Dr. Dorgan was invited to participate in a continuing education course that involves doing veneers in Scottsdale, Arizona.
The first 10 people to respond to this invitation (also to be listed in our upcoming Quarterly Newsletter and posted in our reception area) will receive a full work up including diagnostic casts, diagnostic photographic series, and a consultation all free of charge. Dr. Dorgan will then select the best case for the course.
The patient selected will need to be able to travel to Phoenix, two separate weekends. We will be in Phoenix from the evening of April 15th until the course ends April 18th for the preparation visit. The second visit will be from the evening of May 21st – May 23rd and we will be bonding the permanent veneers. The patient selected will be responsible for all travel expenses; in return there will be no charge for the veneers valued at approximately $10,000.
