Carol I am glad you were able to get the crown removed. I routinely refund money to people who feel for whatever reason that they are unhappy. To me life is too short to stress over those types of things. I do the very best I can by people but I am only human and sometimes things happen that are out of my control and sometimes people have unrealistic expectations that I can never live up to. In those cases I cheerfully refund the money, mo arguments. I sleep better that way. In your case I would definately have repolaced the crown at once without any argument.

Daylia, yes, Lip bumpers are still used routinely on patients who have the need. If you have a mentalis habit which makes you constantly flex your lower lip, it is the only effective way of treating the problem, but it is not meant as a torture device.
