Dear [recipient's name]:

I am writing to ask some questions and get further clarification regarding the tooth extractions that my daughter Sue had at your office last Wednesday. She has been having some continuing mild pain and swelling, and I would like to know whether this is typical. Also, what do you advise, in terms of coping with these symptoms?

Although we will see you next week for Sue's follow-up appointment, I wanted to go ahead and get some guidance now.

Please call me at 555-3737 as soon as possible. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Sincerely,

[Signature]
