Dentists

May 30, 2008

Well, since I still have nothing to write about, I will write about dentists.

There is a blog I found about a British man who has had an abscessfor two years and five months. Apparently there has been a rise in the number of admissions to the hospital to over 1,500 per year because of abscesses. This man went to his own dentist who told him it didn’t warrant concern, so he gave him a couple antibiotics and sent him on his way. He has cut and drained it himself twice now.

 

Then it got too serious and the dentist said she’d have to do a root canal. But then it was too difficult so he would have to do it privately which would cost him about $4000 American dollars. So he was on a waiting list for the Maxillofacial Unit at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary. Now it is too serious for a root canal and he was told to go back to his original dentist. That was five months ago.
