The 2012 Dentistry Debacle ..........WEEK 6

Doesn't it feel like week 36?

Didn't get around to asking about any possible discount this week after the discussion turned to the stages involved in my debacle, and actual implants and such come after all of the decay is dealt with.

SO, Edie MCclurg is gone, seems like the owner of the 4 locations(Stouffville, Port Perry, Uxbridge, somewhere else:)) rotates assistants around, and although it seems odd to me, especially with somebody like me coming in weekly, this is their policy ......please bring the blonde back:)

OK, so this week we had 2 root canals on the second from the back molar on the left side, it gets pretty painful when you have your mouth as wide open as you can and he keeps saying "open as wide as you can", and I have no way to tell him off since he has a needle in his hand and my mouth is full of instruments. Worst thing about this was the 3 roots were in one tooth, and it still hasn't settled yet 5 days later.

I might also have a problem with the back molar on the right side. He worked on the tooth to get rid of the decay, and them filled it, BUT now the tooth is much more sensitive to cold whereas before I had none..........it was like a mechanic replacing a battery in a car and then finding out you need to replace the alternator .......so what happens with the useless, not need battery, is it simply a "I was afraid this might happen, now we need to do a root canal" all when there was no pain before.....Great way to keep the $$ coming in!

the actual $$ will come when I find the receipt and I edit this post to add it, but I remember is that I made another $5000 deposit.....ouch!

OK, found it......:)

Total Bill

$1358 ...... Running total $6827 .......That hurts just a little bit

Work performed

Root canal x2($744 and 422)
Surgical removal of tooth($202)

Now I need to find the current bill, cleaning my car makes it tough to find anything in the mess I took inside the house.
