What is the name of your state? OH
A few years ago I had 2 permanent bridges put in by my dentist. He recommended a new product which claimed to be stronger, less prone to discoloration etc than the tried and true porcelain over metal.
I have had trouble with these bridges since day one. Before moving out of state my dentist would always fix whatever problems I was having.....bridge fell out , needed to be recemented ,material chipped etc.
After moving and seeing a new dentist I was told that this "miracle material" was no longer manufactured due to it's high failure rate. I am now faced with 2 broken /unrepairable bridges and $10,000 in dental work to replace the bridges.
I know that my dentist wasn't aware that this new material would fail. Is the company who manufactured this product libel? There is no way I can afford to have this dental work done and I have already spent several thousand $$.
