You could see the cavities on the teeth. In fact, I mentioned it to the dentist that retired abruptly. No problems. Uh huh.

As for the crowns, one of the teeth had been fixed 3X. The filling was coming out of it and sharp! Ouch!

The other crown may not have needed to be done (perhaps). The new dentist said "mistake" as she was getting ready to operate on the gum around it. It is adjacent to the other tooth with the sharp filling come out of it.

So, being I could see the problems myself, I don't really have any doubts.

As for the triple roots on the teeth, I vaguely remember hearing those same words after having my wisdom teeth extracted some 40+ years ago. You could see the extra roots on the fancy x-ray they ran on me.

Nightmare situation and finding a dentist to see me was almost impossible where I live. Everything is like that here, medical care included.

Thanks for the reply.
