For example, I went to the dentist with no pain for a crown and ended up with pain due to nerve damage. Each dentist I went to after that, actually made things worse and I lost a tooth. Dentists don't seem to want to learn about nerve damage and so are more inclined to cause it or not recognize it when they see it. I was shocked when I read in the book"Striking Back," how typical this scenario is...all because dentists are ignorant about nerve damage and refuse to educate themselves. Because of this ignorance, I ended up with trigeminal nerve damage and it is AWFUL!!!!!!
