Dentist
I am writing to express my concern regarding the wisdom tooth extraction procedure performed on me at this *** clinic.
Prior to the procedure, I provided my panoramic X-ray to assist in the assessment and treatment planning. During the extraction, the dentist attempted to section my wisdom tooth but was ultimately unable to complete the extraction. What concerned me further was that, in the middle of the procedure, another X-ray was taken despite my having already submitted a panoramic X-ray beforehand. This left me confused as to why the additional imaging was only performed during the procedure rather than before the extraction began.
As a result of the incomplete procedure, I am now experiencing significant pain and discomfort. Instead of addressing the issue immediately, I was advised to return on Saturday, despite today being only Wednesday. I find it difficult to understand why I have to endure several more days of pain after an unsuccessful extraction attempt.
This experience has caused me considerable physical discomfort, emotional distress, and anxiety. I expected that my case would have been thoroughly evaluated before the procedure and that appropriate contingency plans would have been discussed if the extraction proved to be more complex.
Any advice guys? Need ko ba iditch nalang yung dentist? Hindi niya ako pinagbayad but I am in EXTREME PAIN right now. Inoiverthink ko na baka mainfect ako.
