Should I Extract My Two Upper Teeth?

Posted on March 9, 2022 by writeradmin.

I have only two teeth left on my upper arch and they are the two front teeth. At the moment, I wear two partial dentures. I find them pretty uncomfortable and hard to talk with. I only wear them on two occasions. First, when I’m going out to see people. Second, when I have to […]

Why Won’t Her Dentist Take Out the Tooth She Wants?

Posted on February 10, 2022 by writeradmin.

I am working to get all my dental work caught up. On my upper left, I have two teeth that recently had a root canal treatment. I also have an impacted wisdom tooth that is infected and causing problems. Because the root-canaled teeth still bother me, I want those removed too but my dentist is […]

Posted on October 31, 2019 by writeradmin.

The Most Work in One Appointment

Posted on May 19, 2018 by writeradmin.

I hate dentists. I hope you won’t be offended by that I just find it’s best to be honest up front. I have what is possibly a tooth infection. It hurts. So, if I’m going to suck it up and go in to see a dentist, I want to get as much work done as […]

Wouldn’t I Need An Emergency Dentist if Something Was Wrong?

Posted on November 15, 2017 by writeradmin.

I have a new dentist due to my old dentist retiring. I went in for my normal checkup and he said I have two teeth which need to be extracted and replaced. Surely, if my teeth were that far along I would have needed an emergency dentist from the pain, don’t you think? Could this […]
