I went to Dr. Guthrie to have 4 wisdom teeth removed. When I went there for my consultation, they left me for about 1hour in the dental room. Nurses walked in and out and just left me there. An 10 minute consultation took over 2 hours! On the day of surgery, because all of my teeth were still embedded below the bone, I was supposed to receive IV sedation. However, for some reason Dr. Guthrie was incapable of getting the IV to take and he ended up removing all teeth while I was awake and only on novacaine. He had to drill out my bone while I was awake! On top of that, when I yelled (from the pain of having him drill), he yelled back at me that he could not work if I screamed. That of course pissed me off and I hoped to never return. I even went through 2 weeks of dry socket pain just so I didn't have to go back. Later on, though, I realized a splinter of jaw bone was sticking out where a tooth had been removed. Sadly I had to return. Once again I waited in the room for 40 minutes past my appointment and then he came in for 30 seconds, said I'm fine, and tried to file the bone down even though it was under gum. How can you file bone when gum is over it? You can't! Now my gum is all torn up and swollen and my problem is not solved
