This is a follow up from my original complaint titled, Mouth Pain. Peter Schuler: I submitted a complaint a week ago and I haven't received a response.I met with the dentist Patel at the clinic and I tried to explain what happened with dentist Koolick during the filling.She took a new Xray which showed that the drilling and the filling did hit the nerve. She showed me the previous Xray taken a couple months again showing the proximity to the nerve. She said that she would have explained the possibility of hitting the nerve with the patient before she did the procedure. Dentist Koolick didn't even mention it. She said that she didn't want to talk about the dirty gloves, the pressure of the drill to which caused a large wound on my lip and the cheek. She said that the mouth already has many germs. I replied that I have seen a report that our phones are dirtier than a toilet. I said that I didn't want my mouth on the toilet. She said that she wasn't there and didn't know what happened at the filling. As a witness, I tried to tell what the dentist did, but it didn't seem to believe me. I told her that the dentist was careless with the gloves and the damage to the cheek and I believe he was careless with the drilling. I explained that I had no tooth pain before the procedure and 40 days of intense pain afterwards. I told her that the company should pay for this negligence. I explained that I have no insurance left and I would have to pay $3000 for the root canal and 250 for the 3D Xray. I said that I can't afford this. She said that she didn't want to discuss details like money and that this is what the office staff does. I told her that $3250 is not a detail to me. She also asked several times about my health conditions. I replied that I have told the office and every dentist and dental hygienist at the beginning of every procedure that I have lymphoma and they needed to be careful with my mouth. I told dentist Koolick this at the beginning and his reponse was to refuse to change his dirty gloves saying, "it will be fine". He damaged my mouth and then drilling into the nerve. This whole thing is unacceptable. The fellow dentists and staff are going to automatically support the dentist instead of listening to me. Thank you for your concern. Peter Schuler.
