Hi guys,

I went for my initial check up today, since my insurance is now in effect.
The extractions that I mentioned still needs to be extracted. However, I found out that I have other cavities that I need to take care of 4 fillings and 1 root canal. On top of that, he suggested to remove my wisdom teeth as well... All four of them because apparently it'll be much harder to remove them later on since I'm already 26, clock's ticking.

Also, the infection is calm as of right now, so it's be the perfect time for extraction etc.

AND on top of alllll that, he found a dark little nodule type thing right under ,my lower /bottom tooth (next to a root canaled molar tooth) the panoramic x ray which he said needs to be referred to a specialist to find out if it's benign or malignant... Or it could just be a bone growth.

At this point, I'm trying to hold back tears (i cried my eyes out in the car parking lot) and in the process, I left out questions that I should've asked.

I wonder what are the chances of this thing being cancerous and what are the chances of it being just a normal bone growth, or maybe even a cyst?

I'm going to call the office tomorrow to ask these questions just to ease my mind. However, I was wondering if any of you had this type of predicament before? Or if Bryanna can shine some light my way?

Also, he said the most important course of action to be taken is to extract the teeth first. Does this mean the dark area or whatever isn't that serious? And my new dds is not very sympathetic as my childhood dds. I'm a crying mess. I just want all of it to be over.
