I went in good faith to Dr. Pilecki for my 6 month checkup. I was having no dental problems at all. While I was there I was told I had multiple cavities. I floss and brush my teeth and 6 months previously I had no cavities at all.
Dr.P drilled my back tooth #15. Even with anesthesia I could feel some discomfort and pain. Dr. P. was going to fill another tooth but I had an appointment so it didn't get filled. Shortly after my dental visit I began to have problems with the tooth that she drilled and filled. It became very sensitive to heat,cold and became painful.I went back to Dr. P. to see what could be done. She gave me fluoride toothpaste. This did not help at all.By now I was getting more pain and no relief. I went to a different dentist. My result there was no cavities at all. The tooth that Dr. P. was also going to fill did not have any cavity nor did the rest of my teeth have any cavities. Why was she planning on drilling and filling a tooth that did not have a cavity.? When I mentioned to my new dentist what happened his response was "It's a shame". Yes it is. I ended up having a root canal and a crown put on the tooth #15 that Dr.P drilled. I had discomfort and pain for many months before the tooth was finally fixed.I paid thousands of dollars to repair a tooth that I believe did not have a problem or cavity to begin with. My response is Beware. read more
