Hi All,

I've recently been to the hospital as I've been have pain due to impacted Wisdom teeth in the bottom jaw. I was told that there was a small risk of nerve damage as the teeth are close to the nerve so they were not able to do anything unless I've had 2-3 infections. I've got a copy of the x-rays (img272.jpg) and would like to know where and how I'd go about getting a second opinion/advice?

Many thanks,

Phil
 
In the USA you just call and make an appointment with an OMS for a visit and the wait might be a couple of days to couple of weeks.
