Had rootcanal and gold crown done. ACTO all followup dentists since, root canal (3 braches) was incorrectly done (not deep enough into the roots, much too shallow), OTOH crown was much too high (affecting my byte) and primitively shaped (almost flat surface, not grooved), very expensive overall (he claimed he is worth it because he is so much better than others etc.), made me feel very uncomfortable by continued indirect references related to my ethnic background/nationality (not directed directly at me personally, but there was obviously a major issue with him; I felt trapped to stay until treatment was complete), 2 years later the crown falls off. However, he was accomodating regarding request regarding composition of "gold" alloy used, seemed competent in his mechanical skills. In the beginning he told me that he recommends the tooth to be pulled, but I wanted to save it. When I left after treatment was complete, he told me the crown would not stay on for long and he'll see me back there... He was rigt that it would fall off, but I have no desire to see him again,. Two other dentists told me that I should have the root canal re-done at his cost.
