I really dont trust my dentist that much.. I think he just trys to get me in and outta there asap... Last time I went in there I knew I had a cavity.. but I didnt bother telling him... so he gets done with doing what ever he does.. and say OK! yer all set! Im like thats it? Hes like yeah! It was nice seeing you again.. So I said can you check over here (pointing to my back bottom row of teeth) Im like I have some pain there ... So he looks... Oh damn! I missed that one... Lets make an appointment to drill that baby!

Any wierd Dentist stories?

haaaaaaaaaa sorry im fucking hyper today...

I have the SAME problem with mine! A procedure that should've taken 2 hours, they got me out in 45 minutes, but broke into 3 separate visits... It ended up costing me $190 as the insurance would only pay a percentage, and for only the first 2 visits.

The xrays for 1 tooth came out with a "truncated root"... I asked if that was normal, he said it was something to "keep an eye on"... He didn't care to diagnose what could've caused it... I may have the same problem as my dad, where a bacterial infection ate through part of his jawbone, but my dentist did not care to recommend me a specialist or someone who could figure out what's truly wrong.

I'm switching dentists. My current dentist's office keeps calling me to schedule a new appointment.. For "basic cleaning"... The day they call and say "Dr. K*** is concerned about your tooth and would like to conduct more tests", then I will go back to that office.

IN the meantime, I'm in search of a new one.

You should call up my dentist. He seems to be pretty cool, just don't be shocked if you wake up with your pants unbuttoned.

I don't know, I've never had a cavity :beerchug:

I do have an ulcer though, well they think its an ulcer...4 ER doctors said ulcer...2 specialists said they didnt know and wanted to do more tests, my main doctor said he wanted me to go back to the specialists.....After a ER trip with internal bleeding and collapsing on a nurse the ER docs are the only ones who have perscribed me anything that works which is like Prilosec but 20X stronger....If i get stressed out, eat spicey foods, caffein or greasy foods I run the risk of internal bleeding.....but I am glad I've never had teeth problems cause I would rather have a medical problem then some guy screwin around in my mouth lol

Why do you think he spent the last 3 days at the mental hospital? His therapy has been way too costly to mock it by quoting that in a sig.

My dentist is WAY too thorough..lol After the hygentist cleans my teeth my dentist checks them and points out anything the hygentist misses! As a result I've got great teeth though, :D <--see?
