I needed a replacement crown put in. The one they put in is too big. It shifted my teeth and now they are crooked. Thousands spent on braces and a retainer that no longer fits my mouth properly. It was stretched to fit around the tooth but no longer keeps my teeth straight. There's a constant pressure in my mouth and it's difficult to floss. Is there anything I can do about it? refund? I can't afford a new retainer. I don't want a new crown, I just want my teeth to be straight.
