I have bad dental decay, what should I do?

Monday, April 12th, 2010
Q.
Hi, I am looking for some answers. I am only in my early thirties and my mouth is full of dental decay. I am not even sure where I should start to get this corrected. The teeth that are decaying probably cant be saved, so I figure I will need dental implants. Can you suggest where I should start, I know it will be very expensive and I will probably only be able to do one tooth at a time. Thank you.,

Should my dentist have to pay for the crown that HE broke?

Friday, April 9th, 2010

He said it would cost her $1,400 for a new crown. Since he is the one that broke the crown, shouldn’t he replace it and only charge her for the office visit?,
