Can I Sue my Dentist Because She Failed to Give Me a Temporary Tooth for a Crown?

Eden22
I went to my Dentist for a crown after having a root canal done. She decided not to give me a temporary tooth, so when the crown came back from the lab it did not fit. She had to drill on it so much, she had to use that as a temporary and send another impression to the lab. I moved away and after that experience I did not want to have any work done by her again. I now have to get another Dentist in my area to fix this problem. Is it worth sueing my Dentist over this?
