My teeth are broken off in the gums and I am afraid of a dentist.
Do the dentist have to slice your gums to get the root out and the stitch them back up. Help my gums are sore from eating. Can anyone recommend a good dentist in Beaumont.

Most of the dentist now a days are really nice. Some have fish tanks in the rooms to relax you, my dentist even has a TV mounted on the ceiling and you bring your favorite DVD to watch while he is doing whatever.
If your tooth broke, you risk getting an infection really bad. And after the weekend I just had with my husband, trust me, you want to see your dentist. We ended up at the ER early on Sunday morning, with a severe infection in his upper teeth.
You really need to have the root taken out, they give you enough stuff you don't feel the pain at all, if anything it is just pressure.
I can't recommend a dentist, but ask your friends and family for who they go to, ask them about their experiences. Find one that will calm and relax you rather than just being cheap.
