i personally met raffaini.
Don't like him. Some of his cases are excellent....this doesnt mean anything...
He works in different locations with any dentist, proving no real "method". He only works privately, while all great surgeons in italy do both private practice and hospital.
He's a marketer. He's got a wonderful website and he promises you the hollywood smile.
The doctor i pick actually discourages you from surgery. If he sees youre really motivated and theres a real indication for surgery he makes a study that's so detailed it comes in 30 pages.
He discusses all the details and he tells you "i can work with any ortho but i really prefer working with x equipe". They are great and examine you thoroughly.
I was worried i could pay too much privately, he told me he is a doctor, not a broker: if i can have a little bit more patience (1/2 month waiting list) he could perform surgery for free in the hospital where the orto equipe works.
Awesome doctor, awesome results, passionate, humble.
I visited 6 italian doctors and researched thoroughly.
Still, surgery can always go in an unpredictable way. But i wouldnt change my surgeon with nobody.
