Dental advise needed, Bad orthodontic dentist.

Thursday, Sep. 2nd 2010 10:53 AM

I am so upset and I am not sure what I can do.  For three years I had braces.  I was able to get my braces off where I was going to have just the retainer to deal with.  However when the assistant was pulling off my braces she pulled out a  perfectly healthy tooth out with the braces.    It really hurt and I was in a lot of pain.  She called my Orthodontic dentist to see what happen and he cleaned my mouth out and wired my tooth back in.  Then told me to see my dentist ASAP.

Which I did that same day and my regular dentist told me there was not much more he could do but to monitor it.   He told me it may or may not take.  He said  best case it heals in and then they may have to do a root canal on the tooth at worse it will not take and I will need a replacement he suggested and implant.

I went back to my orthodontic dentist and was told I need to wait for my retainer until the tooth heals.  They are not doing anything about it.  If I have to do any type of additional dental work I think they should have to pay for it.  My god it is their fault they ripped my tooth out in the first place.   What can I do about this?
