I went to Dr. Stephen Needle to have my wisdom teeth removed in 2004 the office was extremely nice, and seemed to have a good track record, I know accidents happen thats why they have you sign a hundred from saying if you have any problems we cant be accounted for them. After my surgery my face was extremely swollen and numb. I was given a stronger form of aspirin if needed, when I looked in the mirror on the way out of the office I still had blood on my face and in my mouth I looked like I had just gone through a major heavyweight fight. No problem I thought that it was to be expected as the days went on the swelling and pain seemed to greaten and the left side of my face was still numb. I seemed to be making no progress whats so ever and my mouth had a strange taste to it I called the office and they said that everything was normal and to call back in a week. As before nothing got better I was still swollen and numb and felt ill. I called the office again this is approx. 3 weeks after the surgery and they were like o here you should be taking antibiotics it looks like you have an infection and the numbness would go away. Cut to 3 years later and the left side of my lip and mouth are still numb. I feel alot of care was over look
