arzoonee Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Another Dentist question: I am only here til the end of Feb. Recently started experiencing pain in a molar that was repaired last autumn. Pain now manageable with aspirin but these things don’ t get better by waiting. Attended Dr. Barragan’s office this a.m. for consultation and was advised that extraction was indicated; that Dr. Barragan was booked til March; and that Dr. Sonia Montellano Ruvalcaba would be doing the procedure. Anyone have any experience to share re. this dentist Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 No not the dentist but stop taking aspirin 7 days before you have extraction. Aspirin thins the blood. Look it up. You don’t want more bleeding during the procedure. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sm1mex Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I just had an infected abscessed tooth removed by Dr Javier from Guadalajara who comes to Dra. Candys office here. Very caring and English speaking. It was a difficult extraction as the root of the tooth was cracked off under the gum but he was great and got the tooth and root out. Now on to an implant. 😌 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickS Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 I *think* that Dra. Sonia is a Periodontist that comes down from Guadalajara. If it is she, she performed minor gum surgery for me at Barragan's office last year... as well as other dental work (fillings). I was/am satisfied with her service. English spoken. I have been using Dr. Barragan's office for years. IMO if he trusts this Dra. to be in his office, I would trust her also for something like a tooth extraction. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcstroker Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 My wife and I have been seeing Dr. Barragan since he had his small office in Chapala, wouldn't go to anyone else. As to Dra. Ruvalcaba I had 2 molars removed last month by her and couldn't believe how fast and painless it was, you'd be in good hands. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
