Crown / Bridge Warranty
 

When procedures are done by dentists there are a number of reasons why those procedures can fail but biology is is often a key factor effecting failure or success.  I understand a consumers frustration when any procedure results in failure, but he or she must understand that dentists are physicians of the oral cavity and the treatment of teeth and their supporting structures are comparable to medical treatment done elsewhere in the body.  There should be no warranty associated with any medical or dental procedure.
