Case Description
I have been to several dentists, oral surgeons, etc. over the years but none could seem to find the origin of this pain at #4. They all relied on conventional x-rays which apparently revealed no problem with the tooth itself. I have tried desperately just to get the tooth pulled but all refused to pull it. I now have shooting pain up to my head! I read an article by Dr. Shandland on Nico cavitations which without a doubt described every symptom I have. I took the article to the professionals and they dismissed it without a blink. Please help me find a dentist who will pull this tooth before it takes my life. Desperate in Ellicott City, Maryland! I have Cigna HMO coverage. Dr. Shandland does have a website. Thanks so much.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
