Drilling injuries to tongue and gums in dentistry

Question

I recently injured my tongue and gums drilling with a drill during a cavity treatment at a Japanese American dentist in Torrance. I was a little concerned about the way the doctor used the drill during the treatment. I thought it might be dangerous to be so careless. During the treatment, I didn't notice the injury because of the anesthesia, but I noticed it a few hours after I went home. The injury is not that big, but since I injured the side of my tongue, it hurts when I hit my teeth while eating and talking.
Since the pain was stronger on my tongue, I didn't notice it easily, but my gums were also cut by about an inch. I noticed that the gums were almost turning into mouth ulcers.

I told the dentist that I was injured, but they said that I would be seen 5 days after the injury,
I would think that after that many days, I would have recovered quite well,

but even if I went to see the dentist,
I would be sent home, ！ thinking that it is almost healed already. I feel that it is useless to go there.

What would you do ？?

The lawyer should be able to give you an hour of free consultation.
Call every one of the Lighthouse lawyers.
An hour is quick, so the key is to keep what you ask simple.

You can write reviews on Yelp and the like as normal, so I don't see a problem with writing the dentist's name here.
We should share the information to avoid the same victims in the future ？.

If it's JOY in Torrance, it must be limited ？

I think it's a dentist who used to be a sister, but her sister went to another state ？.

Japanese people have a habit of apologizing immediately, but
in the U.S., if you make a mistake, you are admitting your mistake, which puts you at a disadvantage, so you never apologize. To avoid this, it is better to choose a good dentist based on yelp and word of mouth.　I had a bush doctor in Japan and he tore my teeth to shreds.
