Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Sounds like you have an infected wisdom tooth. Most probably you need to have it removed, however, you will need antibiotic medication before anything can be done to control that infection first. Depending on the difficulty of the impacted tooth, will determine the cost. Best thing is to call a dental office right away and get seen as soon as possible.Dr. Colin Yoshida
