I’m Suspicious of What Her Dentist is Saying

I’ve been having a toothache on and off for about two weeks. When I was finally able to pluck up the courage to go in, the dentist did x-rays and discovered a tooth that already had a filling was infected again. He said only about 10% of the tooth is viable and he needs to […]
