HAHA! That is very funny! Yeah..having a hard time not spending a crazy amount of money on dental work. Or even finding a dentist that doesn't do work that isn't necessary!
If you go to Howarth Dental Group, and you have a heart murmur, check with the latest American Dental Association practices (found online) as far as the protocol for taking antibiotics before dental work.
I once had a murmur, don't anymore. I found through easy Internet research that what they required as far as antibiotics was a very, very old protocol; they required a very high amount. I have no idea if it was Dr. West or not. I can't recall.
I went to that dentist BEFORE 2007. So it was changed a LONG time before that. (It may have changed again in 2007.) If I remember correctly, the protocol changed in the 1970's, yet he was still using it 30 years after it was changed. That's "very, very old" information.
And Google "isn't wrong." Information on web sites may be wrong, but Google does a great job bringing us the web sites we seek. It is up to us to determine if the web site is likely to provide valid information.
The information I found, at the time, was on the American Dental Association web site.
Are you sure you're a dentist?

FYI Dr Google isn't always correct.
