Should I Have To Pay For My New Porcelain Crowns?

Q.
Is there a general period of time for which porcelain crowns are guaranteed for? This was done at a private practice. I have two crowns on my front two top teeth that were done 4 years ago by an emergency dentist in Hammersmith, London. The level of customer service there was atrocious so they knocked £600 off the £1800 bill. I am seeing the same practice again tomorrow and I’m hoping the repair/ replacement treatment will be free. The crowns they gave me are now cracking up and will not last too much longer. I am really disappointed with the level of service and standard of care I received. In your opinion, should I have to pay again for this treatment?

A.
Hello, thank you for your question. I understand that issues with dental health can be quite troubling, especially when you don’t believe that you are getting the correct standard of care. With your specific case, it’s all practice dependent but I doubt you’ll get your money back after 4 years.
