I have had several root canals so when I went to Dr. Shoemaker, I never dreamed I would end up losing my tooth because he was unwilling to tell the truth about what had happened. I had a root canl & kept having pain. Dr. S said tooth beside 1st tooth needed root canal so we did one. Still hurting. Dr. S. said extra canal. still hurting. Dr. S. said tooth cracked...will pull at no charge. Went to oral surgeon & had tooth pulled. NO CRACK! Root canal had gone through tip of tooth! that was why it was hurting. then Dr. S drilled a hole into my gum and put root canal filling into a nonexistent "4th canal". My tooth could have been saved if Dr. S had just admitted that procedure had gone through tip of tooth. cost me $3000 to fix tooth that shouldn't have been lost. I would never recommend Dr. Shoemaker to anyone!!!!! I know that going through tip is a complication that can occur...if he had just admitted that was what had happened, I would still have my tooth.
