Is my dentists charging me for work that I might not need or may not even be right for me?

Q.
Hi – I want to my NHS dentist this morning in Essex, and I am a little concerned on something. Two years ago, I had a dental implant (front tooth) and recently it is chipping away around the sides and looking a little gappy. Firstly, he did not remember it was him that put the actual implant in. Secondly, I did not realise this until now, but he has booked me in to come back for a crown on this tooth. Is this normal, or would he think that it is only a crown on the tooth rather than implant? Thirdly, I obv paid for this already, when it was originally done. He is charging me again, is this right? Many thanks if you can help, because I am concerned about paying all the money again and not getting a proper job done.,
