My husband went to see an oral surgeon this morning for #16 and #17 wisdom teeth extraction. After 2 hours' torture, the surgeon only extracted #16. Although he cut and drilled on #17, he couldn't take it out. The reason he gave us is that he couldn't find the right drill! And he told us to come in 2 weeks.
I just don't understand, why would he cut and drill my husband's #17 tooth in the first place? Now my husband has to suffer for 2 weeks, and will have his #17 tooth drilled again. I'm worried now if his #17 will give him some trouble, like infection, in this 2 weeks.
Could somebody help me? Thanks a lot.
