Among other proceedures I had two bad experiences with her. On a root canal she left one root nerve intact and the crown she installed was not sealed properly. Later the tooth became impacted. I had to have a root amputation done on two of the three roots in an attempt to "save" the tooth. It turned out that the remaining root was cracked by her proceedures and had to come out because it continued to pus. I not only had to loose the tooth but some of the surrounding bone was loss and I had to get a bone graft and an implant to replace the loss tooth. On a second proceedure to put in a perminate bridge she again failed to seal the crown properly and the remaining tooth that was used for an anchor began to rot under the crown. When I asked her for something for the pain she perscribed a mouth wash. The dentist I finally went to, because of the pain, showed me that the decay on the tooth was flaking off. After many visits to other dentists and peridontists things are much better.
