heartland dental horror stories

Some patients have reported issues like long wait times at Heartland Dental. For example, they might arrive for an appointment on time but end up waiting for over an hour just to be seen by the dentist. This can be really frustrating, especially if they have other important things to do.

One more horror story is about a patient who had a root canal done at Heartland Dental. After the procedure, the pain didn't go away as it should have. Instead, it got worse over time. When the patient went back to the dentist, they were given more painkillers but no real solution to the underlying problem. It took the patient going to another dentist to find out that the root canal had not been done properly in the first place.

One of my dental horror stories was when I went to get a wisdom tooth pulled. The dentist didn't numb me properly. I could feel every tug and pull as he tried to yank that tooth out. It was excruciating pain that I will never forget.

One horror story is about a patient who went abroad for cheap dental implants. When they got back home, they had constant pain and infections. It turned out the dental work was shoddy, and the materials used were of low quality. They had to spend a lot more money to get it fixed properly in their own country.

I've known of a situation where a dental hygienist accidentally dropped a tool into the patient's mouth during the cleaning. It was a small instrument but it still startled the patient and could have potentially caused an injury.

I heard about a case where a dental hygienist used a tool that wasn't properly sterilized. This put the patient at risk of getting an infection. It was a really scary situation for the patient who later found out about the sterilization issue.

One common one is the pain during procedures. Like when people get cavities filled and the anesthetic doesn't work well. Another is dentists being rough. For example, when they handle your gums too harshly while doing cleanings. And then there's the fear of getting bad news like needing a lot of expensive work or having to get a tooth pulled.

One horror story is when a patient got veneers and they kept falling off. It was a nightmare as they had to keep going back to the dentist. Each time it happened, it was not only inconvenient but also embarrassing.

A common one is when the dental associate accidentally drops a tool in the patient's mouth during a procedure. It's not only a shock but can also cause injury.

One horror story could be when a dental associate used the wrong type of filling material. It led to the patient experiencing extreme pain and sensitivity in the tooth. The patient had to go through multiple corrective procedures.
