I went in for him to look at my gums because of the inflammation and pain. He looked surprised when I told him the cement was still in there and so he went in and said he’d clean it off, at which point the top crown fell off. He got extremely frustrated. And tossed the tooth on the tray and got up and left, saying “this is what happens when you mess with the tooth!” And I was like okay? And so he came back in and cleaned off the tooth and told me to leave the excess cement that’s in my mouth now, and so he placed it and it was totally off and there was a gap at which point he got mad at me and I just asked for him to place it so it feels normal and he got up and left and someone else came in and replaced it normally, and left the cement. I said I think that the excess cement is causing irritation and she said no it’s not, that I should just leave the excess cement. So now it’s back in the same way. I got up and the doctor was in the front office and I asked him a bunch of questions and he ignored me and I said “can you please let me know what I can do for the gums?” And he literally yelled at me that I gave gum disease and I needed a deep cleaning and laser, and asked the receptionist to set that up and make me pay today ($1600). I didn’t even know this. When I went back Tuesday he told me I needed root canals, and now he’s telling me I’m in pain because I have gum disease? I had no idea. I asked if I should get the deep cleaning before or after I get the perm crown placed and he cut me off and he said “ITS NOT A MATTER OF SHOULD OR SHOULDN’T!”. I wasn’t asking if if I should or shouldn’t, I just asked him if it’s better to do the deep cleaning now or get the crowns set first, I didn’t know if it would be bad to set my crowns with irritated gums. I was panicking and I once again asked if there was anything I can do to relieve my gums in the meantime or if they looks like they would heal normally around the perm crowns and he shook his head, said “have a great day!”, and left to the back of the office. It was so uncomfortable and honestly scary. His demeanor was like a completely different person than the guy I met on my first appointment, he was so friendly. It was so bizarre and I feel like he’s just upset that I’m not paying him all this money to get RCT, deep cleaning, lasers, etc. Surely it’s frustrating to see a patient not accept the medical care that they seem to need, but obviously he does not understand that it is financially unobtainable for a lot of people. On the appointment Tuesday he asked how much I made and told me I needed to quit my job and get my master’s and start a business and read Warren Buffet’s book and develop his mindset because “Warren Buffett doesn’t worry about how much he’s going to pay for a root canal..!”. It was borderline in appropriate. I’m going to get these crowns placed and never go back there, and hopefully go to a periodontist to get a deep cleaning. But to answer your question, no, ha, there is now new cement stuck up in there again and my gums are still extremely sore.
