DO NOT GO HERE! a few months ago I had him extract a tooth. This extraction was the WORST experience of my life. It took 2 hours! my jaw hurt so bad it felt broken!! Meanwhile I'm choking on my blood and they tell me I'm not, the numbing hurt so bad I was shaking and crying and they said it was normal well its NOT! About four hours after the tooth extraction the bleeding was so severe I went to the ER. The meds did nothing for the pain and the antibiotics should have been prescribed before the extraction not after. Henceforth the infection moved into my jaw. The ER said it was the worst botch job they ever seen. They put my on the correct medication and pain pills. I had a hare line fracture in my jaw as well from the extensive pishing, pulling, yanking and drilling. That night I seen a different dentist for emergencies who stitched me up and removed bone spurs coming from the socket cutting my gums open, the next day I went to Jackson dental who reviewed the wound and medication the doctors prescribed all while I was bawling from a panic attack for being at the dentist office again need I remind you I'm not new to the dentist the experience was that traumatic.The antibiotics Erickson had me on gives you extreme gut issues and diarrhea as well come to find out from Jackson dental who told me to stop taking it immediately and that its should have never been prescribed let me tell u that was fun and landed me in the ER a few days later again for different issues. I spent the next three months unable to eat because of new bone spurs still dislodging from the socket. I was so scared and messed up that I never did or said anything to the dentist. I now want to tell the world so no one ever experiences what I had to go through. Two ER visits, 3 dentist and a life time of trauma. A total of 6,000 dollars all because of him. Update they have sent me a bill for 2 dollars! I paid in full for the procedure a surgical one to boot and it wasn't even surgical. Now 4 months later out of nowhere they are sending me a bill for 2 dollars and it dosent even state what for!!! These people need shut down!
