Hello all. So i’ve been dealing with serious teeth issues since 2008. It was mostly my upper teeth, which i only have 5 left up top. And now it seems im gonna have to start getting my lower pulled. While i hate doing it, at least my old dentist i trusted. Problem is, he retired last year. So now i got a new dentist who took his place and he’s been a problem. He didnt graduate dental school till 2023. And i just dont trust him. I just hate getting teeth pulled. Its always extremely painful and i just hate doing it.
 
Hello @GusGus - I'm not surprised you don't trust your new dentist! Nobody in their right mind would trust someone who keeps hurting them. In this day and age, there's no reason why removing a tooth should be extremely painful.

Is there a reason why you have to stay with this particular dentist?
 
well, right now, im looking for other dentists. i think too im weighing the odds between getting a couple pulled every so often, or just going to an oral surgeon and getting all the lower pulled at once. i just wish i didnt have to deal with this.
