I just had an emergency root canal done by him on Mond Aug 27. He was very kind and made me feel very comfortable and went over all of the procedures very carefully with me. Actually LOL he kinda talked to me like I was a 'tard, but nonetheless, I had the root canal done. I've never had one done before, and my tooth (and surrounding area) still hurts. I've been in contact with him and he wants me to see him for a follow-up. What I'm getting at, is he's good. And I beleive been doing business for awhile. Yes he is expensive. Good luck.

PS My friend had his teeth redone w/ veneers. They look Fabulous! and he went to Neibauer. They are $$ too.

.....Silently through the night to the sultan's tent where he would secretly meet up with Fatemi of the Seven Veils, swingingest grade "A" number one U.S. choice dancer in the Sultan's whole harem, 'cause, heh, him and her had a thing going. You know, and they'd been carrying on for some time now behind the Sultan's back and you could hear him talk to his camel as he rode out across the dunes, his voice would cut through the still night desert air and he'd say (imitate Arabian speech) which is arabic for, "stop, Clyde!" and Clyde would say, (imitate camel voice). Which is camel for, "What the heck did he say anyway?"

We have him before. Work wasn't bad but I believed he was involved in some legal issues such as over billing.

I would never recommend that bastage to anyone. I had braces removed went to him for a cleaning and claimed that my gums were too inflamed. So, I made an appointment the next day with Dr. Hochman and Remellini and went to them. After they were done cleaning, I asked them if they say any sign of gum inflamation or any gum disease and they looked at me as though I was nuts. I replied at thier looks by telling them how Dr. Fatemi told me that my gums were in real bad shape. Dr. Ramellini and her cleaning tech were speachless. Dr. Fatemi is a thief. He over charges, lies about treatments. Go the Dr. Hochman and Ramellini. Thier office is now called cosmetic and laser dental surgery 301-475-2881

Medicad fraud. He has to pay back lots of $$$$$. Scaming insurance, and submitting bogus claims. I wouldn't go to him.

Hehehe

Actually, Fatemi is an Iranian/Persian name.

What's the big deal?

Call a Persian an "Arab" and note their reaction.

'Taint perty.

I dated a Persian guy for 2 years.

Ever met a Middle Eastern redneck? That was him: he loved beer, BBQ, country music, and don't get him started about how "toss facking bache kooni Moosalem Ah-rabs" ruined his country.

I second this 100%. Fatemi is the biggest azz ever. He ruined two of my molars by claiming that he filled the cavities.....yet, the next dentist later brought to my attention that he instead "shaved" the tooth leaving exposed enamel. I brought this to the attention of the insurance company at the time, but I don't know if anything was done about my complaint.

Also, while he was "filling" my cavities, he was having an argument with his assistant who walked out in the middle of my procedure. He was very rude and condescending to me the whole time. And it HURT. Fatemi kept yelling at me to sit still.....I wanted to knock the sucker out.

A couple of years later I read an article about a Medicaid scheme he was running. What do you know, the SOB was charging the insurance companies for procedures that were never preformed!!!! Serves him right to have finally gotten caught. They should have put his tail in jail.

I have a few veneers and I regret getting them. They come off periodically and sometimes I am able to "find" the veneers in my mouth (in which case I can re-apply with SuperGlue) and sometimes I'm not....which means that I have to wait with a funked up tooth until a new veneer can be made.

And because the integrity of your natural tooth is modified (etched so that the veneer can adhere better to your tooth), if you decide to take the veneers off, you'll forever have funked up natural teeth.

And lastly, because the veneer sits on the surface of your tooth, much like a false fingernail sits on your own nailbed, your tooth becomes "thicker" making eating some foods more difficult. For instance, I now find eating some sandwiches really hard to eat, especially if the bread had a hard/tough crust to it. I am also really paranoid that the biting action of eating certain foods will make my veneers come off.

I understand that almost all other veneer patients have no issue with the veneers coming off, but I sure do. I wish I had known of my issues with the resistence to the glue BEFORE I had my real teeth etched. Nothing I can do about it now.

In closing, I do have really nice looking teeth. That is...when my veneers haven't fallen off.

It sounds like you got lumineers which is what you said they make your teeth thicker in some cases and at placed on top of your tooth after it has been etched. There are other types of veeners that actually attach to the back of your tooth after 1-2mm is shaved away and gives it more stability.

I have worked for a dentist office for a few years now and haven't seen with the veneers the office I worked at do that but have had emergency cases come in from other dentists.

Veeners are good for looks but not good for chewing unfortunately. I don't mean you will have to eat bread and water the rest of your life but you can't eat frozen carrots.

Be careful super gluing the veener back on because the bacteria in your saliva can get trapped between the veneer and your tooth and cause you to get cavity and then you would need a crown after all that you had done with the veneers.
