I went to Coast Dental in Port Richey,Fl 34668 for a filling of back tooth,they said I would need a crown for 800.00 trusting their advise I paid for the back tooth I was complaining about.  I was numbed out and did not feel them drilliing the wrong tooth down to the size of a baby tooth to make a crown..while awaiting for permanent crown to be made I was flossing one day and a temporary cap came off of a tooth in front (next to front tooth)

 I started crying because they ruined a perfecly good tooth preparing it for crown. Went back to office crying where the Dentist Dr. Horoutz yelled at me to stop crying u r not a baby he states.I said u ruined my good tooth when all I came in for was a filling for a back tooth.I made that pefectly clear when I made the appointment.You said it needed a crown so I paid for it.

 He now says he can fill that one  for another 239.00. At first he said it needed a crown,but now he says he can fill it because he saw how distessed I was in loosing a good tooth and then needing a crown on it since the tooth was drilled down to nothing I had no choice.So $1239.00 later I have a tooth that was filled as I wanted to begin with and told he couldnt do, and a cap on a pefectly good tooth that was ruined from dentist drilling it away.
