During a recent lecture about a special type of dental implant, three leaders in the field were mentioned. One of them was Dr. Balshi.

Dr. Avi Bidra, who is the Director of Graduate Prosthodontics and Implant Surgery at the University of Connecticut, gave a lecture at the ACP Meeting in New Orleans and said that these three leaders mentored him in learning the protocol for Ptergygomaxillary dental implant placement and restoration. This protocol was developed at Pi Dental Center nearly 40 years ago.

Dr. Thomas Balshi is the Founder of Pi Dental Center and continues to be active in dentistry by mentoring dentists. We speak to him frequently.

Patient Review: "Broke number 6th tooth aka front and obvious. Despite having seen my dentist 3 weeks ago as I do every 3 months, they couldn't fit me in for repair. I needed help!! I called PI Dental and asked if Dr. Wolfinger could see me. They did not turn me away. I was fit in at 7:45 AM for consult; they scheduled a root canal 5 miles away at noon, and invited me back at 2:30 to prepare a temporary crown. Most importantly, they were professional, thoughtful about next steps for care; each person I encountered was interested in the best level of care for me. I haven't had that in the past. I had resigned myself to a level of care that was beneath me. I called the other dentist to have my records transferred to PI Dental. My confidence in them is remarkable."

Many people are surprised by how little their dental insurance covers. A typical policy pays only a fraction of the total. Experts note that many patients mistakenly believe dental coverage works like medical insurance, which is meant to protect against large, unexpected costs. In reality, dental insurance functions more like a discount program that helps defray expenses but rarely pays the full price of major procedures.

Dentists recommend several strategies to manage these costs. Patients can request a pretreatment estimate to anticipate out-of-pocket fees, though insurers may still adjust coverage afterward. Receiving preventive care, like regular cleanings, remains the most cost-effective way to avoid expensive procedures. Staged treatments and payment plans can also help spread costs.
