Can I sue for not only to be reimbursed but extra money for pain and anxiety? I have been in pain for a month

Ann M asked:
A dentist talked me into replacing old silver fillings with white ones..he said the old ones were pulling away and decay may have started. They did not hurt but I thought better be safe than sorry. He filled them and they hurt for a week or so and I thought that they were just tender..three weeks later I could not eat, drink cold or hot bevarages or food on those teeth…I returned to a previous dentist and he took exrays and showed me stripes of grey between the white teeth and the white composite…he had to do a root canal on one of the filled teeth and when he opened it up found that the previous dentist’s work the substance that formed a grey stripe was uncured??? AS in the dentist had not waited long enough for it to cure or his light bulb was weak (a device that cures the filler)….so all five teeth that he worked on ALL have stripes and the dentist said that all the teeth would have to be redone? There most probably is decay starting in again…Can I sue for moneys and pain?
