Quick summary, DS stopped developing at 32 weeks, was born by emergency section at 34 weeks and has suffered with reflux ever since. As a result he has quite poor teeth. At a dentist visit recently they said he need one filling, my little boy wouldn't let them do it and so the dentist said they would refer him to a child's dentist for assessment. At child's dentist I have just been told his teeth are in a shooing state and there is no pint trying to save the tooth, they recommend removing the tooth alright under GA at the local hospital , however 12 other teeth have minor (two major) damage and will need to be pulled out too. I was mortified and incredibly angry. I said there must be a mistake, we are here for one tooth and she said hospital policy is to remove any damaged teeth while the child is under GA to save them having to have them removed under a further GA at a later date. I have said no, that I want them filled and repaired and they don't think my son will allow them to do this. I have asked can he fillings under the GA and this is apparently too time consuming and so it is better if he just has 13 removed to make way for adult teeth. I asked if could have just two or 3 out and they said no. All or nothing. [hmm][hmm][hmm][hmm] I'm lost, devastated and have no idea what to do for the best. I went in there for one filling and now they want to take 13 teeth away, he's only 6!
