Dr. Lonely, what do you make of a dentist who skips the wax Try-In with a patient and goes straight to full dentures which the patient then finds unsatisfactory (for a number of reasons. including failure to do a base plate, a VDO resulting in too narrow of a bite and more)? Then, because the patient demands that they be done over, the dentist does a wax Try-In but the patient expresses dissatisfaction and the dentist assures him that adjustments can be made afterwards, then the 2nd set of dentures are so out of alignment the patient can't chew, much less wear them without pain, and are so clearly out of alignment that there is no adjustment possible? If such a patient has already paid and wants a refund, what course of action should that patient consider?
