Should I pay another $1200 lab fee? (Photo)

Asked By:esantolu in Metairie, Louisiana

After 30 years I had my two front crowns replaced. The lab tech insisted that they be longer than the old crowns. After cementing,I realized my bottom teeth were hitting the bottom edge of the right crown as well as the back of the right crown. The dentist adjusted the bite twice and today trimmed the bottom of both crowns. Now the left crown is shorter than the right. She tells me that I will have to pay the lab another $1200 to re-do the crowns. This does not seem right. What should I do?
