Case Description
Dear Dr. Oogle,
I just had 20 lumineers applied to my top and bottom teeth. I had to wait three weeks for the lumineers and was told that the pain/sensitivity i was experiencing was not abnormal. it was more than just mere sensitivity - the pain area would change, but it would advance to dull ache and throbbing at certain points. i was told once the lumineers were on, the pain would disappear as the tubules in the dentin were now covered. however...i am still experiencing moderate to severe discomfort. mainly from the eye teeth areas on the bottom, but some discomfort on the top teeth also. i am taking vicodin, but am still experiencing pain. i am becoming dismayed and frightened. is this normal?????? i do not feel i am getting a straight/well thought out answer from my dentist. i am slightly panicked and somewhat desperate. i would be eternally grateful if you could help/point me in the right direction.
thank you!!!!!!

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.
