Almost all crown and bridgework done by Dr. Van Lanen failed within 1-3 years. Because the prepared teeth were cut to short accelerated decay set in leaving no options other than expensive dental implants. I've had crowns done by other dentists that are 35-40 years old and in excellent condition. Its depressing knowing that Van Lanen's prior work will cost me $25,000 to fix with the potential cost of $50,000. Meanwhile I'm loosing weight because I can't eat. I stand 100% behind my comments.
