I did have to get the extraction on #14 and I got it done today. The OS said everything went well and that the tooth under the temp crown had a crack in it, which he thought was the reason it hurt. Funny, because my dentist had told me that he had drilled out the fracture. I also did not have any sinus exposure with this tooth - another plus.

Another bad thing - last Wednesday I had the perm crown put on my other tooth, the next day it chipped when eating beans, a large chip, exposing part of my back tooth. Friday they were not in and I also couldn't see him, the dentist, today because of the extraction appointment.

So, I have an appointment to have the dentist look at the chipped crown next Wednesday. I'm beginning to think I will have to look for yet another dentist. It's so hard to find a good one as well as an honest one. In fact, I haven't found one yet!

I'm presuming I will be reimbursed for the crown I've already paid for on #14, which is now extracted. I also assume I will have this other crown replaced at no extra charge. Do you know anything about that, Bryanna?

Some luck I have, huh? Gretchen - Thanks!
