Because the patient has responded so well, I have asked him to return to your office for continued dental care. Any restorative treatment plans you might have could well be done at this time, and I encourage it. Since the coming year is such a critical time in the healing process and an essential time for continued maintenance of superior oral hygiene and plaque control, I have suggested that the patient visit you on a very regular basis. Please make contact and establish a regular recall schedule. We would appreciate any further communications you may have concerning this patient. Feel free to contact me at anytime. Sincerely, Dennis D. Smith, D.D.S. |
