Hi, this is my first time posting here. I first went to a dentist that had no regard of my pain or fears, and even left cavities in my mouth after he claimed there were none. (I only found out because the hygenist told my mother and I.) It got to the point that after my root canals at that dentist, my mother refused to take me there anymore.
I wanted to tell the context behind why i'm suspicious of my current dentist. She's nice, and they specialize in treating patients with anxiety, and I have seen her 3 times in the past 6 months over my worries. I have a wisdom tooth that has an odd hole in it, and 2 premolars with some brown around their fillings. Each time I have gone there, she said that theyre not cavities and to not worry, but i'm still suspicious that she is letting them get bad, so I will have to get a root canal. I also wanted to get a sealent on my wisdom tooth so I wouldn't have to get an implant, because my family does not have the money for that at all, but she refuses to put it on because she says ill have to get it extracted eventually, although it's fully grown and supposedly without any cavities + decay.
I put a photo of my wisdom tooth and the left side of my mouth. I know the wisdom tooth hole looks normalish here, but its deeper than it looks.
