Case Description
I had filling done two years ago (teeth 14 and 15). It is gone in a year. Insurance refused to pay for refiling. I had to pay for second filling. After one and half year, I went to see another dentist. This dentist, after drilling told me that the nerve is exposed, root canal is needed. He should have told me before starting the work. I asked him to fill the cavity and he did the same. I have too much pain when teeth came in contact with cold water. Pain lasts for more than an hour. What are my options now. Please advise.

When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
  • Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
  • Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description, special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
  • Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
  • Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors. Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
