I have been a client with Dr. Forrest Duan for the last 7 years, my last procedure was for a replacement crown on the lower molar tooth. When I had it done I thought all went well but that evening i found something was not right and when I went to look in the mirror there was a cut my perfectly good crown that was next to the crown he was working on to replace. He had cut into a perfectly good crown by mistake!
He gave no apologies but corrected his mistake and did a replacement crown.
Foward 4 years later that same crown had tooth decay underneath it. I mention to Dr. Duan shouldn`t crown last longer than 4 years because I have older crowns that are 10 to 20 years with no problems.
I mention to him that he should give some discount for the work that he botched up but he didn`t want to and said that because i didn`t see him the last 4 years it was not his responsibilty.
I went an got a second opionion from a well know dentist and I brought along my recent x-rays she said I didn`t need to have any of the cavities to be fill which Dr. Duan wanted to do which led me to believe he was generating unncessary work!
I am now in the process of having a tooth implant to fix that crown with my new dentist.
