How many extractions and fillings can a dentist do in one visit?!
Question: Im guessing I need to have 3 molars and 1 incisor that came in wrong extracted. I also have two molars with rather large cavaties that need to be filled. Would a dentist be able to do all of this in one visit or am I probably looking at having to go back two or three times?

Some dentists are willing to do this in one appointment, but I wouldn't.
3 extractions and 2 huge fillings seems like a lot of work, and you need to be in the dental chair for a long time in order to get all this done, plus you and the dentist will get tired.
doing the extractions in one appointment and the filling in the next one, sounds like what most dentists would do.
Also if you divide the work into multiple appointment, you will have less anesthetic in each visit, and the post operative discomfort will be less as well.
Good Luck
two, maybe three. i don't believe i've had both proceedures ever done at the same time. cleaning/filling OR extraction per visit i think
13 extraction are the most I ever did at one sitting, was an immediate denture patient, was my uncle to, did not even charge him!! Doc W
