How hard is it for them to redo new crowns?

Please explain why the crowns need redoing.

Short version: Dentist (2nd time!) made entire mouth of crowns not bright enough and crooked. My main concern at the moment is major PAIN as my left back bridge is throbbing and feels like I have an awful toothache.The gum looks separated from the crown. I'm wondering if they left a string up inside again! It doesn't feel just sore or uncomfortable like the others did. Some things is wrong! Presc pain medication isn't touching it. Back to the crowns, this has been a disaster from the get go.. I've had the dentist drop a couple in my mouth and almost swallowed one, the first set was not bright enough but I had them change it before cementing. Apparently an assistant wrote down the wrong color. THIS time (last week) I mentioned it when trying a couple on and was told it was the overcast we were having. I was assured it was B1. No one else agrees. Bottoms have big gaps, lower jaw slides too far back instead of resting/stoppin. Very nice office staff but nice doesn't make my payments. I'm considering trying to get into a cosmetic dentist today for the pain and have them quickly look at everything. If a dentist doesn't feel they can do what you want (discussions, photos, etc.) why not say so?

If I were you, I would get a second opinion from a well-recommended dentist.
