Summary
Ms C complained that her dentist had failed to fit temporary crowns properly. As a result they had become detached shortly after fitting. Ms C said when she returned to the dental practice, she was made to wait for an hour, before being told to go home and come in later that day. When she attended again, she felt the dentist was unprofessional and unreasonable as she asked Ms C to leave the surgery and refused to provide her with the impressions that had been taken of her teeth.
We took independent advice from one of our dental advisers on the treatment provided to Ms C. We found that the treatment provided was well documented and complied with the appropriate national guidance. Our investigation found there was no evidence that Ms C had received inappropriate or unreasonable dental care.
