Great Advice!
Friends continue to tell me about people needing immediate dental care. My dentist is in a large group. They are seeing emergencies. They used to see anyone with an emergency. For now, they are seeing only established patients.

Many people are in pain . Dental pain can be excruciating.
My heart goes out!
