Can you pull a molar tooth out?
I just got my tooth out the other day an the stupied dentest took only half out by mistake an had the nerve to ask for another 100 bucks to get plate out of my teeth an not even offer to finish his job. Why would I want too pay another 100 just too get the rest out. An so my molar tooth is left an I need it out before it gets infected. Is thier any way to get it out on my own?

First of all, it's incredibly painful to pull your own tooth, you really can't see what you're doing and there is a technique to it. Secondly you could give yourself a terrible infection if you don't have sterile equipment.
You should tell your dentist he needs to remove the tooth he left in, you already paid for the procedure he needs to finish it. He should have taken an X ray after the extraction to make sure he had all of it. He should have known from looking at the tooth that he didn't get it all. Tell him, he needs to finish the job or refund your money so you can go to a different dentist and get it fixed. If he refuses tell him you're going to file a complaint against the better business bureau. If you look into it, there is probably a dental review board you can complain to about him. I'm guessing if he did this to you, he has probably done it to other people. If he gets too many complaints they will revoke his license.
