YAY lillyh!!
Like I said, you have to state what you want and sometimes you just have to say it again and again. Your instincts were correct, you did have a problem and you did what was in your best interest!!
So many times I write here about root canaled teeth and how infected they all are.... and how often the dentist does not diagnose the infection. Your story confirms my promise to deliver the factual information.... and I thank you!
It is best to wait 2-3 weeks or more before having your teeth cleaned. The gum tissue on the extraction sites need to be healed pretty well before stirring up the bacteria from your cleaning.
Thanks again for updating us and for being so determined to get what you needed!!
