A year a go I took my son to get his teeth clean he had three small cavities and I took him back and they filled them well last weekend my son who by the way is only 7 years old had a huge abcess over one of these teeth I took him to the doctor and got him an antibiotic and pain meds till I could get him to the dentist monday morning. I took him to a Pediactic dentist and they took x-rays and told me that the fillings that were done were very poor work and now my son has cavities and decay under the fillings because with all 3 teeth he had fillings on there is a gap between the tooth and the filling. So naturally stuff will get in the gap and you cant get it out to clean it. So now this new dentist is going to pull 3 of my sons baby teeth and they are gonna do 2 crowns on two other baby teeth. These are teeth he is supposed to have till he is like 12 or 13 years old. The new dentist also said that it looks like my son is getting another abcess on the other side of this mouth where the other two teeth are that the old dentist did fillings on. Any way long story short if the first dentist had done the fillings right my son would not be having this problem but because they did a poor job my son now has to go thru all of this and not only that its gonna cost $2700 before insurance and roughly about $1000 out of our pocket to get this done. Lots of people are telling me that we should go after the old dentist since they did a poor job and because of their poor job they caused this to happen. I wouldnt even know where to start has anyone else had any experience with anything such as this?
