X-RAYS TAKEN BY DR DORFMAN SHOW EXPOSED NERVES

In 2015 Dr. Dorfman took these X-rays of James' teeth. You can see how the nerves are exposed.
You can also see where one tooth was lost while waiting in vain (on a waiting list) for treatment from sources that accept James' insurance.

The badly infected tooth was removed, but not by any of the dentists who accepted James' insurance.

Most of you are too young to remember the movie MARATHON MAN, the 1976 suspense thriller where Dustin Hoffman is tortured by a Nazi war criminal who is living off diamond sales and asks over and over, "Is it safe?" while he pokes Hoffman's dental nerves. This is considered one of the worst forms of torture and yet this has been James' reality for nearly a decade now. James has had broken teeth that cause this sort of excruciating pain.

The question now is: "Is James well enough for the four surgeries (at least) that it will take to repair his teeth? Is it safe? Will it be ok to do the surgeries in the dental office or should it be in hospital? Which hospital?

Suzy, at Dr. Dorfman's recommended UCSF School of Dentistry Prosthodontics. (...Before we were given the boot. Dr. Dorfman's office made it very clear that they would not clean or X-ray or examine James' teeth any more and Dr. Dorfman would NOT give any recommendations to James.) I contacted local referrals first. It will be a lot more costly to travel to San Francisco and reside there until the treatment is complete but if James' health continues to spiral downward, that in hospital option may be the only option that is safe.

At this time I am fundraising for the local, less expensive, in office treatment. Last week I attempted to get a personal loan but the damage done by OCWEN to my credit score is still not repaired and I have to stop trying to get the loan until OCWEN repairs the harm they did to my credit. If I continue to try to get a personal loan I will only lower my credit score more. I have a six year perfect payment history on my OCWEN home loan. Unfortunately that history is not showing on Equifax due to recent activity by OCWEN which is a matter of public record (OCWEN snatched our home, bank owned it and then rescinded...which demolished my credit score). I was well on the way to getting James' dental surgeries financed when OCWEN knocked us for a loop, totally out of the blue and in spite of my 6 year long perfect payment history.

Maybe OCWEN will consider coming to James' rescue in this matter since their actions had such a profound negative impact on James' life and their efforts to repair our credit are not swift.

If James needs to have these surgeries in hospital, I would like Mr. Ronald Faris, CEO of OCWEN to seriously consider covering the costs so that James can have this done immediately, as soon as his health permits. James looks horrible and he feels horrible.

PS: In spite of my outrage towards Dr. Bill Dorfman's recent behavior towards my autistic son James, I am profoundly grateful to him for taking these X-Rays of James teeth in 2015 and giving me this tool to let James doctors understand the pain James is suffering. The dental clinics that accepted James' insurance said it was impossible to X-ray James teeth and did not clean his teeth or X-ray them on any of the many appointments I took James to. After each of those disappointing visits I would make an appointment at Dr. Dorfman's office and pay for the cleanings and X-rays that I could not get done for James using his insurance.

These X-Rays by Dr. Dorfman prevented James from being slammed with psych meds every time the pain flared up.....not counting the Little Company Of Mary ER that wanted to zap James because their resident drunk was using the ER to recuperate and rest up for his next drunk and threatened to smash James' face if he didn't stop crying in the emergency room and interrupting the drunk's nap. 

An autistic person who's teeth have been damaged by medications is likely to be given even more life threatening medications to shut them up if they cry from CHRONIC, UNTREATED dental pain. Insurance covers all these dangerous drugs that kill so many American's every year, but it doesn't cover tooth damage caused by medications.
