Dr. Odenweller accidentally left a spacer between my teeth after filling a cavity. A spacer is a little piece of plastic designed to create a separation while the dentist works on the tooth. It isn't meant to be left there. When I mentioned it didn't feel right she said it was because I probably needed a root canal, which was untrue and caused even more unnecessary stress.
Eventually the pain was severe enough that I went back, which was when she discovered and removed the spacer. She did not admit her error or apologize in any way. I was horrified and never ever went back. To leave dental materials in a patient's mouth and then act like it's no big deal is not an acceptable level of care. I just want others to be forewarned.
