Bryanna, thank you very much both for that post and your previous reply! I'm not sure how to go about private messaging you, but the location for a good oral surgeon/biological dentist would be northern michigan around petoskey/harbor springs. A 1 hour driving radius is considerable.

I could also arrange something downstate near metro detroit if there were notably better options down or near there. Finding a good surgeon is at the top of my priority list in terms of removing the tooth. Thanks again and let me know if you have any suggestions!
