Dr. Nicole Deakins, DMD

I came in with a bad crown that was painful and didn’t fit. I was in agony because the whole right side of my mouth is crowns and so having them fit correctly is important. I chose Dr. Deakins because she is a Prosthodontist who specializes in restorations like crowns. She refused to remake the crown, saying she would just make one that was exactly like the crown in my mouth. Instead she insisted on shaving down the healthy teeth in my mouth to fit the crown. After 5 months in her care, my pain is an 11 out of 10. She shaved down all my molars, wouldn’t believe me when I told her my left teeth felt like they were floating and changing position as the months passed. An orthodontist and a different Prosthodontist quickly confirmed that my left teeth have flared out dramatically and that my jaw was in a bad position because of my shaved down molars. I now have to pay other doctors to fix what she did, and to take out the bad crown she refused to take out and remake.
