[QUOTE="sidesh0wb0b, post: 261884, member: 7594"] first, thanks for posting [USER=3360]@RileyS[/USER] .... it happens to us all. got two centrals back to be remade the other day....no diagnostic, no temp model, dr said to proceed and make "ideal" since we were correcting horrible twisted centrals. so i did. they looked great. except, they didnt look great to the patient. luckily they didnt seat them, but same deal. what works for us doesnt always work for them, and as someone mentioned, esthetics are in the eye of the beholder. most ppl dont even notice the little subtle things that we see. why? cause we are teeth ppl and thats what we do! but if their brothers uncles dad mentions something, well then they look and look until they find something wrong. for this scenario, 50% charge would be my go to if you want to retain the client. why? they cemented crowns that they were happy with and came backk 3 months later and decided they didnt like them. AND, start from scratch. make some temps based on the model the patient approved. go sit down with them and work on what needs to be changed to make them happy. all in all, the crowns look good man. maybe not Al good, but still they look good and prob 100x better than the mess the patient had to begin with. thats why we do the magic we do! stay strong brother. you know how to reach me if you need to chat! this too shall pass.
