I don't trust them, I swear they are drilling on perfectly good teeth just to make a buck.
My dentist was absolutely painless! OK, so half my face was numb for nearly 24 hrs and I bit myself 15 times and that hurt when the shot wore off. At least it didn’t hurt when he was doing his dentist thing. I went once and he wanted to do $600 worth of work. When I told him I didn’t have insurance at the time and asked how much just to pull the tooth he said $20. Too bad his license was suspended for awhile due to insurance fraud and now he’s not accepted by my current dental insurance. I really like they guy…at least as much as one can like a dentist.
