Bad dentist Lichtenburg

I took my daughter to dr Louw in Lichtenburg (a dentist), in December 2020, my daughter (13) had a bad experience with a root canal (at this same dentist), so she wanted to extract the tooth, rather than to go through that again. The dentist convinced us that she could save the tooth and didn't need to extract the tooth. She took an x-ray and this was her professional opinion. Two week after she filled the tooth, my daughter was in pain again. When I made another appointment, I told the receptionist that I was unhappy about her waisting our medical aid. Honestly if you study so many years, aren't you able to know what a rotten tooth look like on an x-ray? She has charged another R3000 to our medical aid, and did a root canal, that we did not want. My daughter had two teeth removed the previous year, and the doctor assured us that the openings will close over time as new teeth forms. So removing the tooth would not be such a big deal. I wouldn't recommended this dentist yo anyone, as she is clearly not qualified and are oly into money
