Zirconia crown
I met with an accident in 2018 and lost one teeth. So doctor suggested to go for canine to canine labs 3m crown for upper jaw and lower jaw. I paid extra money for the warranty. Now due to infection that crown got de attached from the jaw. When I went to the hospital what they are saying was after 2020 no warranty can be accepted. Is it the case?

Hi i can understand your concern
Warranty cards for the crown been placed not for the teeth ..
If the concerned tooth is infected it's better to go ahead with necessary diagnostic xray and treat it as it is front teeth. Xrays will tell you if the teeth is infected or gum.

Hello!
I certainly understand your concerns.
Warranty will always be given for the crown, and Not for your tooth.
If your tooth is infected it's your own call,dentist can treat it,and try to fix the same, if the tooth is sound and healthy like before.
If crown is damaged, it can be replaced as promised on the warranty card.

If you have the warranty card with you, you can check the date mentioned on it. If it’s still in warranty period you won’t have to pay for the new crowns but if the tooth needs treatment that cost will not be included in the warranty.

Hi,
Do you have the warranty card with you. The number of years will be written on that. If the fault is with the crown, it can be changes within the warranty period.
