I wish I was never Dr. Arena's patient.
A few years ago Dr. Arena replaced my two front crowns. After the crowns were already cemented and without taking any time for an evaluation of my bite, Dr. Arena decided to grind my front teeth. I had a very comfortable bite until this moment and I've never complained about it. Unfortunately, Dr. Arena carelessly adjusted my bite. In a few days all my teeth were so sore that I couldn’t sleep in intervals longer than 15 minutes. When I returned to Dr. Arena complaining about the pain he refused to examine my teeth. I went to another dentist for an evaluation and was told that my new front crowns should be replaced, but Dr. Arena refused to replace them. He guaranteed me that he would fix my bite by slightly adjusting it over a few visits. Over the next few months Dr. Arena attempted to solve the problem that he created, by grinding my teeth all over my mouth. He reduced my pain, but he inflicted more damage to my other teeth and he messed up my bite even further.
Dr. Arena could have easily fixed his initial mistake of grinding my new crowns by replacing them. Instead he made an even worse error by believing he would fix the problem by grinding my neighboring healthy teeth
