graft" which amounted to the o.s. packing the hole with bone material,
as I understand it.
My question is this:

I've got a question and I'm hoping to get a bit of advice, maybe from a

Anyone have any thoughts on the economics of the dental profession?
Suppose you spend $120-200k for dental school tuition, plus maybe $80k

working.  That's maybe $200-250k spent when you're in your early 20's.

I will appreciate a lot if some one have the phone number or email from
Dr Kulacz. I called him several times but the phone is disconnected. I
wrote him as well but He doesn't get the mail.
many thanks.
