I am 74 years old. I visited Western Dental for a tooth ache. I was told I should have a root canal and was quoted $1,500.00. This was above my budget so I had the tooth pulled.
The cream used to numb the gums for the novacaine did no good as the injection was the most painful I have ever endured. Never in my life did i have so much pain. The pulling of the tooth was more painful than anything I have ever endured including when I broke my leg.
Later I went to the manager to ask her to reduce the price because of the unnecessary pain. She never said she was sorry. She just said pay the full price now.
I asked to send x-rays to another dentist and she said that would be another $25.00. I told her never mind we would just start going to a dentist who cared.
