Placing the new crown should not be more than 10 days max. In some cases we had to deliver the final permanent crown the next day, which is very possible. Of course the ceramists usually charge an extra rush charge depending on the complexity of fabricating the permanent crown! Usually less than 10 days there is extra charges that may apply.
In my office we use CEREC to make crowns in a single visit. Since your dentist does not have this technology, it is necessary to take a mold, place a temporary crown, and have a dental lab make the crown. The process usually takes 2-4 weeks. Your dentist should be able to tell you. Anything longer than 4 weeks is too long.
It comes down to the lab. If the lab is local it may have a faster turnaround, but the average is 2 weeks. If planned in advance, this can be less than a week, but unless there is CAD CAM milling in office, that is about as fast as one can expect.
While it is unfortunate that the crown broke, it is not likely that fault lies with the dentist. There are so many factors involved that "blame" is hard to apply. Finding a new dentist is up to you, but if trust is broken then perhaps you should move on.
It is not uncommon for your gums to be sore immediately after having a crown placed over an implant. Even if there was no pain before the permanent crown was placed, the gum tissues need to adapt to the shape of the new crown and sometimes, this can cause discomfort for a day or two....
I think if you make them fused together , you will have more strength, and if you make them screw retained would help,that way you can have a good service every time you require,the doctor will remove the screw and remove crowns give service and will set them in again. I hope this helps.
