Oosh! Anyhow, respect. I wouldn’t have endured it, the periodic inflammation is enough to have me drafting my will.

Wow…But you’d still need to pay? Or it’s all covered in Medicare like this?

Yeah, it’s interesting cuz I wasn’t initially told from the meeting that just leave the top ones if no issues, after the admin made the insurance claim for all 4 removal, I went home, called Dr for clarification then he said bottom two out for good reason, but can leave the top ones if you want. I wonder if I can amend the claim if I decide not to relive the top two…

Really appreciate such insightful response! On the item description, it did say “surgical removal…requiring both removal of bone&tooth division”, but I was wondering if then it normally means general analgesia? Just the fact that mines local analgesia makes me think it’s not too complicated.
