About a month ago, I pushed the dentist to fill two cavities on two front teeth. The dentist did a lousy job. When he was finishing up, he drilled one filling too deep and made the filling extremely thin. Additionally, he drilled a small slice of gum off. Both hurt, so I went back on the following day. However, the dentist told me all was because my teeth were too sensitive and the conditions would improve after using desenstizing toothpaste.
However, the fillings are still sensitive on contact. and I also believe that the one where he drill my gum exposed root of the tooth.
What should I do? Thank you

I would contact the American Dental Association to see if he or she has any infractions against him. I would also report him as well. You need to get to a dentist to see about repairing the work. Possibly contact a laywer.

Ive been down this road myself. 3 Lawyers told me it's not worth suing. If you can get your money back from his stupid job and use it to fix the problem, that's better. Also report him to the ADA.
