Be sure to ask your dentist for a 'release to return to work' note that you will give to your employer. This way you've covered yourself for the absence.Health Question & Answer
Certainly it is a good reason! It is a medical emergency! If your employer does not uphold that, consider legal action as a final resort after everything else falls through.Health Question & Answer
Definitely, just ask for a note from the dentist. I always see the receptionist giving them out to people when I go during the week. Just tell them to include today's date on it.Health Question & Answer
