Smile Tranås... 4 visits and pain persists!!!
This is the fourth visit I have made regarding the same dental issue. The initial visit was for an assessment, costing over 1,300 kr. I subsequently returned for a tooth filling treatment, which cost over 5,500 kr after the removal of government subsidies. Following the procedure, the treated area remained painful for two weeks and exhibited sensitivity to both cold and hot temperatures. The condition did not improve; rather, it felt worse than when I first presented the problem. I was informed that the gum tissue was inflamed because the filling was too close to the nerve. I was advised to keep the gum pocket clean and was prescribed a specific toothpaste, which I had to purchase, in addition to paying for the consultation. This visit cost an additional 700 kr.
Two weeks later, the pain persisted, prompting me to schedule another appointment. While the staff was courteous, I was told that the intensity of the sensation was not their fault and that such pain and sensitivity following a filling are considered normal. The dentist attempted to file down the filling because he said it was to high up, but despite receiving two numbing injections, I could not tolerate the pain and requested that he stop. This indicates the severity of my discomfort. I was sent home in pain and charged an additional 250 kr for this visit.
Consequently, I will not return to this practice. I intend to consult a government dentist to see if they can rectify the situation. This experience has been a costly and humiliating and traumatic ordeal. My husband, who is also a patient at this clinic and initially recommended it to me, will also be seeking care elsewhere.
