Yesterday I took my 4 year old daughter to Sun Dental on Center St Deer Park. I only went in for a check up, it didn't go well. They took X-Rays of her teeth, then the dentist Dr. Tape came in and started looking at her teeth. She said she has a cavity in between her two front teeth, then she started taking to the dental assistant about and abscess behind her front teeth and maybe extraction is necessary. They talked back and forth until I interrupted and asked " what do you mean extract?!" She said she has an abscess behind her two front teeth and she thinks removing her two front teeth is the best option. Well first I was upset because I was being talked around about this abscess, and talking about removing teeth from my 4 year old didn't sit well with me, so I said I wanted a second opinion and they offered to see the lead dentist at the office in two weeks, them I was on my way. As I got in the car I thought why is this abscess not being treated with any antibiotics?!? Well I called all the dentist that was recommended and couldn't get in. So I went with my insurance recommendation for Lovette Dental, the only pediatric dentist was in Baytown. So off I went, I saw Richard Duong, they took there own X-Rays and he came in with a perplexed look on his face. He asked what the problem was, he looked in her mouth and presses in the teeth I say were the issue, and he looked at her file and said I don't see any thing. WHAT?!?! He said she has great teeth, good roots and NO, let me repeat NO abscess. Excuse me. Then he said he doesn't see any cavities either?!?! Wait a second, no cavities?!? So sun dental, no wait Dr. Tape wanted to remove my daughters teeth with nothing wrong. Just think if I didn't get that second opinion? How many other moms have this happened to? Pleas do not take your children here, I'm glad my mother intuition kicked in and wanted that second opinion.
