After our conversation I called two other dentists who do treat dry socket and they told me since he had been the one to pull the tooth he would have to treat the dry socket. I called dentist Stanley Joe back and tried again to be seen by him only to be put on hold. When the receptionist came back on the line she told me dentist Stanley Joe said that I would have to "deal with it."
Went in to inquire about their services and they told me they did not have time for me.
Not only did he refuse to treat me for my dry socket but he also lied. I talked to an oral surgeon and a local dentist office who said that the packing of dry socket does, in fact, help treat the dry socket.
I would suggest finding a professional dentist that not only extracts a tooth but also will treat you if you get a dry socket because of extraction.
I came to this country from Eastern Europe, where was the dental care "free". So in short term, my teeth were in horrible shape. After moving to United States I start visiting local dentists. I was not much impress with their job. One day I saw advertisement of dentist, who just relocated to this area, so I visit doctor Joe office and since my first visit in 1992, he is still taking care of my teeth. I can now even smile without covering my mouth :-). I could not have better dentist, he is not only excellent and gentle dentist, he is also very nice person and I like him a lot. Also his "girls" are very friendly, especially Jessica, Tara and Jane.
I recently had a tooth extracted by dentist Stanley Joe and a few days later started developing extreme pain. I called the office and expressed my concern about the possibility of a dry socket. The receptionist told me I would have to "just deal with it."
Constant billing mistakes and the attitude I get from this place ensures I will never go here again.The hygienists are friendly and do a great job but the pushy secretaries and numerous mistakes are just too much for me.
After talking to a few other dentists, AGAIN, who sympathized with me and couldn't understand why the dentist was refusing to treat my pain I called back and demanded an appointment. I saw dentist Joe that afternoon only to be told by the dentist that he would not pack my dry socket because "packing of a tooth doesn't work."
He was so kind as to refer me to an oral surgeon but of course I would have to pay out of pocket.
NEVER GET A TOOTH EXTRACTION HERE!!! NEVER EVER!!!
If packing a dry socket does not work than why does EVERY other dentist offer treatment for a dry socket?!
I have been going to Dr Joe's office for over 10 years and I live 40 miles away now! Dr. Joe is a man of few words but he is a great Dentist. Anna is my hygienist and she is the best. Dr. Joe uses a water laser instead of a drill for some procedures and it is the reason I hung on when I moved away. I can't find another office that has the technology that he uses. I highly recommend them!
