The tooth was removed on 30 august (price £ 1000). The price for installation of a bridge will be of $ 14 thousandth This is the same clinician who performed the crown treatment and extraction of the tooth. There's just the problem that the clinic has changed ownership on 1 May 2011. Follows the warranty on work performed by the owner to owner. Or can you just wash your hands and fold. How and who can complain. Is there any possibility of damages.
Sincerely
Bente
Answer:
Dear Eleanor
I must be you answer guilty. But I do not think that 14,000 crowns is unreasonable for a bridge. Try to talk but your new dentist if you have the opportunity to get some reduction in price because of the problems you've had in the same region.
There is usually no guarantee of dentistry.
Your new dentist should be able to inform you of your appeal, you can also read more about here: Patientombuddet
Hope you can use my answer.

Is there any warranty on work performed?
29th September 2010
Filed in Complaints
Question:
I have lost a golden crown that was placed on a broken tooth. It therefore has only been cast in the residual of the tooth was left. It is about a year ago that I got it made.
Is the dentist liable for damages in relation to repair the damage, then put the crown on again without payment or there is no warranty on the work done?
I have the crown, so it should be that low again, without the extensive preparatory work, prints, etc.
Thank you in advance!

Answer:
Dear Mike,
Basically, there is no guarantee for dental treatment. If you believe that you have been wrongly treated, you have the opportunity to complain about the dentist or treatment.
Nor is it unusual that you put a penny on anything remaining tooth. I do not know what you have agreed. But if you have the crown, and there has not broken any more of the tooth, so I think that you should visit your dentist and have it put on again. The dentist is not obligated to repair the damage without remuneration.

Answer:
Dear Tommy,
There is no guarantee of treatment. If you think it is unreasonable or finds reading is not good enough, it is possible to appeal. In my opinion, the offer you received from your dentist reasonable when he is not obliged to give a price reduction.

What I am entitled to ifm. a bad bridge?
12th August 2010
Filed in Complaints
Question:
For two and a half years ago I replaced a 4-unit bridge in the middle of the upper jaw. Shortly thereafter, it was found that the outermost tooth to the left had a crack in the porcelain across the middle of the tooth. The dentist now has twice reparet crack with a plastic filling. I asked if there is no insurance covering such things and he says yes, but there is not really anything in the matter, I'm happy with my dentist and he has not even made the bridge. I also asked him whether he had turned to those who have made the bridge, but he had forgotten.
I would now like to know what I actually owed to them in this respect, and how should I approach.
Beyond that it's annoying to have repairs made so that one can also see it and there's no natural teeth that are cracked and repaired across.
I'd also like to keep the bridge so far, but must of course realize that you can not continue to grind on a thin porcelain stand, every time it needs repair, so the bridge hold so not as long as usual.
Help me with an answer, so I know how to relate myself before I talk to my dentist again. I'm a little tired by the end of his answer.

Answer:
Dear Helene,
It is impossible for me to say anything about the warranty of the supplier your dentist has applied. I think you should urgently seek a solution with your own dentist. It turns out to be impossible to find a solution with your dentist, you always have the opportunity to complain about your dentist or the treatment you have received.

As of 1 January 2011 will enter a new patient complaints system in force. But it deals primarily with public employees dental and not private practice dentists who want to continue with the old complaints system.

Question:
My mother in law got for about 3 years ago made snaps of his dentures by a dentist. to solve the problem with a loose prosthesis. The problem was that the gum was about to disappear (my mother in law is 82 years old) work was done at a price of 30000 DKK She then led the push locks changed twice, which she had not been informed about. However, now happened is that the prosthesis is broken between two snaps. It was reparetet two weeks ago (for £ 900) and is now broken again. The question is whether a prosthesis like that should be able to crack and the treating dentist should not be informed about the risk of it, and is guaranteed to the original work. My mother in law was told that there was a lifetime warranty on the work carried out to 30000. What can we do to help her?

Complications after root canal treatment. Who pays?
7th September 2009
Filed in Complaints
Question:
I've had a root canal in my tooth and when this began to crumble, I got a crown instead (in February 2009). Now I have got an infection in the same tooth, which has evolved into a large tooth abscess. It has been incredibly painful and been on pencilinkur and painkillers. I have today (d. 7/9-09) been to the dentist and get the knowledge that it is a tandrodsbetændelse. I have now studied the NetDoctor what caused this and it says that the reason for tandrodsbetændelse is that there are still hiding in dead tissue, and thus bacteria in root canal nooks. It will then say to the dentist in the dawn of time have not made my root canal well enough. Can it be true that I have to pay for a tandrodsbehandling, or more surgery?? That is because those who have not done their needlework good enough, due to my problem today. There must be some kind of warranty. Hope you can answer my question. Sincerely f
ra a frustrated Sisse ...
Answer:
Dear Sisse,
There is usually no guarantee of dentistry. Your dentist has probably done its job properly, but there are limits to how we can achieve with our instruments. There is one of several main channels in the roots depending on the tooth type we are talking about. And there are also these little bikanaler where we can not come up with The instrument. Sometimes it was undesirable to come infection in them. The only way you can get to them is through this little rodoperation.
Hope you can use my answer.
