Case Description
I just recieved a filling at my new dentist's office. Before I left, I noticed that my bite seemed odd, and that the new filling was hitting the corresponding tooth on the bottom jaw quite hard. The dentist assured me that this was a function of the anesthetic. Now that it has nearly worn off, I'm having the same problem, although the receptionist refuses to listen, and the dentist still hasn' t called me back. I worry that I will not be able to eat all weekend. What should i do?

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
