What is the name of your state? Washington, D.C.
I need advice on what steps to take in reference to the following: I went to the dentist for a tooth extraction. After the tooth was extracted, I went home and after a few hours I felt a piece of tooth still in the space where the tooth was taken out. I called the dentist's office the same day to inform them and was told them to come back in. During the next visit, the dentist took another x-ray and found a portion of tooth still impacted and scheduled another appointment for the latter part of the week to remove it. Three days later I still feel pain and my gum is swollen. Now I plan on going to the emergency room to have my gum checked out and receive antibiotics. What, if any, steps can be taken.What is the name of your state?

This is just for help (and sometimes, unfortunatly, ridicule) regarding drug charges, so unless your dentist question is about laughing gas check out this board:

Seems like you're more in the market for something malpractice-related.
