I was going to have Dr. Salemen extract my upper teeth and put in 4 posts implants. I was waiting for for insurance estimates. In the mean time i had 1 tooth that needed to be extracted Dr. Salemen perscribed a antibiotic to take prior to extraction. I took the antibiotic for 7 days went to get the tooth extracted the way he gave me nonacain shots hurt more than usual. He said a 6 yr old patient did better than me and said he gave me as much novacain as he could either bare with the pain getting the tooth pulled or come back after more antibiotic. I elected to come back. In the mean time it became so painfull I went to the E.R for pain med after I called Salemen on a saturday and left a message with his pager service to call. He never called back. I called my dentist when he opend after the E.R I was still in pain with low dose pain pills. he recomeded a oral surgen. I went there on that saturday he gave me 3 novacain shots no where the pain of Salamens shots extracted the tooth with no pain just mild discomfort. So Salamen Claims infection but why did the other oral sugen extract this infected tooth and Salamen couldnt? Also I didnt think his jokes about a 6 yr old boy being a better patient than me were funny.
out of 5 stars
