abscessed top back molar been infected for over 3 years. Been to dentist after dentist who refuses to extract it. They want to give me a root canal instead. So for 3 years the only positive thing I got out of any dentist was prescribed antibiotics and surgically draining the abscess. Very frustrating dentist are out for the money instead of patient wishes! So what do I do pretend no insurance or try to find a dentist from Mexico who will extract it?

Hi, I am a Dentist with 19 yrs experience in private practice. My spouse (an MBA) & I would like to migrate to Sydney or Perth. How can an experienced Indian dentist from Bombay University migrate to Australia?
I dont mind even working as a dental hygienist to start with.

Understanding that dentists run a business to generate profits, it seems most will recommend braces for kids. How do you know if they really need them? A couple of dentist have said they are necessary due to an overbite, but isn’t a slight overbite normal. When do you know that it’s more of a cosmetic procedure rather than a medically necessary one?

Are you living in communist country, or do you know any body who does? Or can you help us with information on dentists living in communist countries in the past and/or present.

I had children young I am 20 and I am finally finding what I want to be. I think i want to be a dental hygienist and continue school get, my bachelors and try to be a dentist. I think it would be great to be able to help people in some way (I am an accountant now) and I think that doing charity work for people without insurance would be awesome. So here are my questions:
Do you think I shoul try?
Where should I start?
What other jobs can I do in the field while I get my certifications?
Around how much will I make?

Please don’t leave rude answers. I want people you really know to answer!

i am thinking about becoming a dentist or doctor in the NAVY any advice which one is better?

I’ve always wanted to be a dentist, but I also think I lack the discipline to make it through dental school. I think that an experience in the armed forces wll get me to the level of disciple I need to make it. My queston is what do I do to get any branch of the armed forces to train me as a dentist?

Also, I am looking for a general dentist who has enough sense not to try to do dental implants themselves but works with a specialist. Also, I am looking for a dentist who is genuinely concerned about my health and not just out to make money.

I visit the dentist every 6 months. Reason being, I currently wear braces and it can be difficult to clean my teeth properly as plaque always seems to find it’s way under my gums. Every time I go to the dentist I am in need of a deep cleaning. Should I visit the dentist every 3 months instead?

I’ve begun getting extreme closed-in feelings when my current dentist is working on me, and he gets snippy with me and doesn’t have any patience for my problem. I need to find a patient dentist and one that is also on my ERS list of dentists. I have claustrophobia.
