Should my dentist be responsible for replacing the cap and the work required to fix my problem?

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010
Q.
I just had my very back tooth capped last year and had gone back to the dentist for my yearly check-up and was told that I had a leaking tooth where it was just capped which indicated decay. Should the dentist be responsible for replacing the cap and the work required to fix the problem. They mention several times how well I take care of my teeth with brushing and flossing so I do not think it was my fault. Please advise, thank you!,

I am looking for some advice on crown replacement.

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi I am looking for some advice on crown replacement, My upper 4 front teeth had crowns fitted approx 10 years, I am not happy with the colour of my teeth or the shape of the existing crowns and was considering having them replaced. Is there a considerable risk in having the old crowns removed? Thanks for your help.

Did procedure lead to these new problems?

Monday, August 2nd, 2010
Q.
Hi, Just before Xmas i had a tooth prepared for a Crown. My Dentist didnt place a temporary on as “your gum is a bit sore wont put temporary on to give it time too heal”. What with the Xmas period and not having the money to pay the remaining balance I went back 5 weeks later to have the Crown fitted. When I went back the Dentist said “just going to remove the temporary”. I told her she never put one on and she did seem slightly surprised. She’d obviously forgot she’d not put one on… Sorry this is long winded..Now i have sensitivity to hot and cold and have an awful taste and smell coming from that area. Is this because the crown doesnt fit properly as my teeth shifted from not having a temporary on? That is a guess but obviously I would value yr professional opinion. Please help as iv’e paid £400 for this treatment and now have sensitivity and smelly breath that i didnt have before!!,
