Poor Quality
Well about 2 years ago I had a front tooth replaced with a porcelain implant that cost me a total of 3,000 dollars from Smile Shoppe in Burlington Iowa. OK they finished the work I then moved out of state and 3 months later during a thanksgiving dinner eating mashed potatoes my freaking implant crown fell out and I almost swallowed it. I called Dr. Amy and basically she told me " well you could drive 2000 miles back and we could try it again" but of course I said no its OK and had a local dentist re Bond the tooth. When I asked my local dentist what was the cause he stated poor quality Bond and not enough set time and of course poor workmanship. So here we are 2 years later and I am eating a piece of fried chicken and my crown now chipped the bottom left corner!!!!! So after doing some research I found out that these things never or very rarely chip or if they do its usually after 10 years or so. I called Dr. Amy to ask some basic questions and to see if she would even offer help with getting a hold of the manufacturer of the implant to see why and maybe help me out anything considering the money I had paid them and all I got was a well not sure what you want there is nothing we are going to do to help you. So I called a local Dentist and he stated it would cost me around 1,000 dollars to replace the crown and would guarantee it for 10years really Dr. Amy I thought you really cared about your patients. Run away from this place, they have back massaging chairs, TVs you can watch and they are really friendly all while they destroy your teeth and pocket book stay away from these crooks and shame on you DR.Amy..... read more
