[QUOTE="keith99, post: 66908300, member: 211648"] Most doctors seem to care more about a patients health than the problems. The only time many would decline to treat an uncooperative patient is when the level is so high that it all but insures failure. My father was a pedodontist (childrens dentist) and I worked with him for several years. It was a rare patient who was happy to be there. Yes there were some, generally those who had near perfect check ups. There were some patients that were quite actively hostile. We never even thought of not treating one. And in a few cases that meant a patient who had to be held down and where a bite block had to be put in place to keep their mouth open. (Bite blocks have a second use, they can help a cooperative patient keep open wide enough, especially for anything involved where yuo simply get tired). That is better than a tooth becoming abscessed and at best lost, at worst being fatal. Yes abscessed teath can have fatal results. In this girl's case the fatal results without proper treatment is all but a sure thing. [/QUOTE]
