I am unhappy with my new crowns, what can I do?
Q.
Is it normal practice for a dentist not to give you a colour choice of new caps or to show you the shape, I have paid 5K upfront and I am so unhappy with both the shape and the colour.
When the temps were fitted (nearly 4 months ago) they were a brilliant white, at my second fitting (3 months later) more temps fitted a nice white this time and such a perfect shape.
I have had only 4 perms fitted on the front and I am so unhappy compared to the temps they look dull and yellow grey,. the front 2 are too long and 1 has such a bump on the back I cant bite together with my back teeth. When I have my mouth very slightly open I look like a rodent oh and they have black lines on the top. Surley this is not normal I have paid 5K upfront I feel so stupid I have an appointment in another 2 weeks time what can i do,

Hi
Hi
Normally you would get a chance to preview your final crowns before the dentist actually bonds them to your teeth. Did this happen? I make sure all my patients see their crowns an are happy with them before we cement them on. I’d express the things you are unhappy about to your dentist at your review appointment and see what they can do
Good luck
