I need help ,is there a Chicago dentist and or endodontist you absolutely love ?
Is there a recommendation for a good dentistry/endodontist in Chicago. I'm breaking down at this point , for the past 10 years I have been in an out of dentist offices getting X-rays and root canals that have failed or caused other teeth to decay and require more root canals . I was on Medicaid initially a young single mom with a disabled daughter,I lost my job and worked really hard to save up for dental care because Medicaid does not cover certain dental work... actually most of it. So I spent thousands just to afford dentists who were shitty and did terrible work that I wouldn't realize was terrible until years later when the result of their shoddy work turned up.
When I finally got healthcare through work I went to a well rated dental office downtown and I got reprimanded by the new dentist for not having come in sooner. ( I had been on a bear one year waiting list for a root canal at UIC dental school but got insurance before my appt ) I went to this dentist for an endo referral for a retreat and she told me that I didn't need one because his office could do it. He did two root canals and replaced a crown . Which cost me 2,000 outside of insurance and butchered my gums in the process and said it was because the other dentist messed up. Long story short after a month the pain returned and I went to a new dentist because I couldn't deal with that guy anymore and they told me that he was a general dentist and should have never attempted a retreat on me . They said my retreat failed. My job ended and my insurance lapsed before my appointment with the endodontist they referred me to . So 8 months later I a have an abscess on my gums where the tooth was and I need to get this taken care of.
I need a good dental office or endodontist who is caring and not trying to get money from me. Honestly my current dental office is Dentologie and people keep saying they are just trying to get money out of patients ...I don't have insurance right now so I can't afford that.
I may get insurance soon with a new job and if I do it would be delta dental ppo ...I would be so grateful if someone could point me in the direction of dentists or dental specialists who they trust implicitly with their care.
