Well what a time it has been. Saw the oral surgeon in Halifax who agreed to fix my perforation in surgery the next day, then his decision was overturned by his superior who did not see or assess me himself. (Teaching hospital)

So back to dentist, a third oral surgeon, ENT still following. Here it is almost 7 weeks later, and an xray taken on Thursday by a new dentist still showed a oroantral communication...the extraction site is healing nicely but the edge of my molar beside it is still dripping sinus fluid. The dentist called the third oral surgeon but he doesn't want to go against the ENT, and wanted me to call the ENT. Why don't these specialists talk to each other?????

The ENT sent me for another CT on Friday (not the dental kind - we don't have that at our regional hospital) but he wouldn't look at the dental x-rays. So I am waiting to hear back from the ENT this morning but am still very upset that all this has happened. I finished my antibiotics 2 weeks ago but think I should be on them still so will ask today.

I am considering going to Ontario for care instead. Bryanna, any recommendations would be most helpful.
