I've been going to my dentist here for a few years, was happy enough, now this past week I went for a cleaning and she's told me I need all sorts of fillings done. I believe her about the fillings -- I never had any problems with my teeth until I got pregnant, then all hell broke loose in my mouth apparently, bleeding gums etc. The thing I was annoyed about is that she did do a tiny filling in the last visit and never even offered porcelain (or sinthetic, not sure what they call here). I was rather annoyed because I'm almost 40 and if I open my mouth you won't see a bit of metal -- I've only ever had two tiny fillings and both were porcelain. So now she wants me back in a couple of weeks to do the other 3 (one of which is a replacement on the porcelain filling that is almost 20 years old).
Does anyone have a recommend for an OSDE dentist that does porcelain? I'd at least like to consult another one before returning to mine. Also the irony is that I had no sensitivity whatsoever -- no since she did the one filling I can actually feel sensitivity, so even if I go back to her I'd ahve to get her redo the filling she just put in!
Thanks!
