I Had two implants done for front teeth. I have had crowns there and it was time to go to implants. The extraction went ok but later in the process it took 3 visits lots of pain and novocaine to get the temps right. Over the years I had a veneer and a crown done on the two teeth on either side of the ones getting replaced. They were perfect but as a result of recession of my gums from the implants metal from the crown and the upper edge of the veneer are clearly visible. The initial estimates put correcting this at $10000. I expressed concerns to Dr. McCann on not being advised of the risk/possibility of this happening. After all he should have knew there was a crown and veneer adjacent to the two prospective implants during the consultation. Dr. McCann has been dismissive of my concerns, when I tried to visit and talk through them. He simply referred to his consent form repeatedly. A prosthodontist I visited believed what happened after the implants was predictable, and Dr. McCann should have at least shared the possibilities and risks. I now have 4 problem teeth instead of 2 and a $10,000 in order to correct the situation in addition to Dr. McCann's $6000 fee.
