I have spent the past month of my life in hell. It all started with a filling 2 months ago. That filling caused me such extreme cold sensitivity that it made me tear up drinking iced tea. Ice cream? Forget about it. The dentist said it was normal and would go away. Fine, I would wait. Then I started waking up in the middle of the night with the worst pain I have ever experienced in that side of my face. Both the top and the bottom of my mouth. Dentist said I was grinding my teeth, gave me a night guard. Night guard didn't work, dentist said I probably had a sinus infection because looking at my x-rays, my teeth were perfectly healthy (I'm glad they looked healthy, they felt like they were about to explode, but thanks for that!) I went to the doctor. Not a sinus infection. Dentist referred me to a TMJ specialist. Instead, I looked on the Internet and found Dr. Bills.

Dr. Bills and her staff started off on the right foot by TALKING to me. Asking what was going on, explaining things that the dentist didn't bother explaining to me. Dr. Bills tapped on my teeth and sprayed water on them. The whole problem with my mouth? One tooth. The tooth that was filled 2 months prior. It needed a root canal. They didn't have any opening for 2 weeks, but since I had been in pain for over a month, they worked me in.

I don't like dentist, I especially didn't like the idea of a root canal. I had never had one, and I was scared to death. I told Dr. Bills that I would prefer to be put under. She disagreed, telling me it wasn't as bad as I thought and that it would cost extra for sedation. She gave me a prescription for Valium for free (even thought she didn't think I would even need that.) So, I reluctantly agreed. She's the expert, right?

My parents took me in the day of the procedure since I couldn't drive myself due to the Valium. I was relaxed, high as a kite. I am not kidding ONE BIT when I say that I have had TEETH CLEANING that were more painful than Dr. Bills' ROOT CANAL. Just the tiniest prick from the needle (and really, it was the least painful needle prick I've ever felt) was the only think I ever felt. I think I might have even gone to sleep during the procedure. And, thanks to the Valium, I slept for 4 hours after the procedure, woke up with the numbing effect worn off, and never had to take a pain pill. That afternoon I ate ice cream. I nearly cried. Not in pain thought, quite the opposite.

Dr. Bills is the REAL DEAL, y'all.

Thank you so much for eliminating my toothache! I enjoyed the very entertaining conversation during my root canal. You are all very warm, friendly, and extremely gifted at making your patients feel comfortable. I am so grateful that I didn't have to take the same action that Tom Hanks did in the movie "Cast Away", (you know.....using an ice skate blade and a rock to knock out that aching tooth!) Thank you so much for taking away the pain. You are all a wonderful team.

Dr. Bills,
I can't thank you enough for the kind, gentle care you took of me when I visited on Tuesday. Never have I had such a pleasant visit to a dental office in all my many years. You and your staff are one in a million, and I am so thankful to have found you. Get ready for the referrals! Many Blessings.

I wanted to say thanks for doing a wonderful job with the root canal I recently had. The experience was as good as it could have been, and best of all....I have no pain now! I have been in pain for well over a year, and now it's gone! I can eat and drink normally now, which I'm still getting used to. It's awesome. Now I don't have to dread biting down. I know you do this all day, but my quality of life has improve 100%. Thank you!!!

Thank you so much for treating me with such kindness during my recent root canal appointment. Your office if so lovely, I love the vintage feel. I can feel confident from first hand knowledge that patients I refer to your office will have an actual enjoyable root canal!
