I had a root canal with crown and post. The post has broken 2 times in one year.

Asked By:pesto66 in Atlantic City, NJ

Last night it happened again and I almost swallowed it. I am thinking of asking my dentist for a partial refund, cut my losses and find a new dentist. I am afraid if it happens again I might swallow it. Any advice or comments will be welcome. I hate to leave his practice, but thinking it might be necessary.
