Hi.

I'm translating this sentence from Chinese. I went to a dentist's clinic and I said I didn't feel well with my teeth. Then the staff there asked me to make an appointment. I wonder if my sentence is natural "You need to make an appointment".
 
The italicised one is fine. The underlined one is not.
Silver, "I didn't feel well with my teeth" isn't natural.

We usually say "I had a toothache" or "my teeth hurt."

(I say it all the time.)
