My temps were made from a mould of my original teeth so the crowns were made from a mould of the teeth that my dentist prepared. I had 2 teeth extracted so a bridge of three has been made on both sides. Only the front two teeth have been cemented the're loose & very sore now. The dentist said that they look good but I am so unhappy I had this done to give me more confidence but I now don't want to leave the house. What can I do please. Is private work guarenteed? Can I go elsewhere? Thank you.
