My dentist has referred me to another dentist to remove UR5 curved root as my original dentist believes it has to be done before he can do anything else with my front teeth (such as another bridge and crowns). I am hardly wearing my plate at all. A different dentist before told me that this root does not need to be removed, as it is unlikely to cause problems, so I do get confused as to the differing opinions.
Anyway, this new dentist is charging me the going rate for the new patient session, even though I won't be his patient and even though he has the xrays sent from my original dentist, doesn't know if he can do it. I am not even sure if he will do it tomorrow (when my appointment is) and I am very anxious about it as I know it is a surgical extraction.
Apparently this root is near my sinus.
Not sure if I should wear my plate to the dentist tomorrow? I suppose I should.
So, I wondered if this would take a long time to remove and how it would be done? I don't even like being made numb (always makes me panic, loss of control). Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.
