I saw Dr Pacheco re a missing tooth and he put in a bridge that didn’t fit properly, left me unable to chew properly and was uncomfortable. Worse yet, it did not attach completely at the bottom but left a wide gap. When I pointed this out he said I would get used to it. Nor was he interested in the gap at the bottom despite the fact it allowed food to collect in the space. I ended up driving three hours to see our old family dentist for a second opinion. He took one look and said it had to come out as the gap would allowed bacteria to build up. He replaced it with a bridge that fits perfectly, doesn’t hurt when I chew and looks great. Dr Pacheco did not respond to my subsequent phone call re this issue. I would caution anyone reading this to stay clear of Dr. Pacheco as he does substandard work and is either unable or uninterested in correcting mistakes. This experience cost me $4,000.
