Default my dental woes

Hi

Im a horrible dental patient!!! Very bad expieriences!!! I have had teeth pulled, root canals, etc. For a long time I never got the novacaine.

I have a broken/cracked molar up top. The dentist group I had gone to messed up my bill so badly I ended up owing big time (different work). the staff can be rude but generally the docs are nice. Their opinion was to crown the tooth. But I was able to get them to fill the whole with something temporary.

From there I went to a local dentist. The staff assured me that they checked my insurance and they were on the plan. But ofcourse after work was completed I ended up finding out they were not. When they first looked at the cracked tooth I was told to crown it but may need a root canal. But ofcourse they wouldnt know until after the new crown is in place. I told them fine, pull it. The doctor referred me to a surgeon. After revisiting this dentist for another problem...he said he wouldnt allow me to get it pulled? And that he would start the crown. He supposedly preps the tooth and stops to say i need to go to a specialist. Why????? To see if I have TMJ. ??? I DO HAVE TMJ AND MS AND GET WEIRD PAIN IN MY MOUTH AND ALL OVER AND MY TEETH ARE SENSITIVE AND I GRIND MY TEETH !!!!! Just finish the job. Nope...wont do it. I will sign a release.....just do it!!!! Nope

The dental specialists he reccommends dont take insurance and the exam is big bucks!!!!!

Welcome to my dental life. Is there any wonder why i hate the dentists!!!!!!!

PS Friday nite and I now have a loose crown.
