Dilemma: Many patients feel that they are "getting a deal" when they have professional services performed overseas only to realize that if there's a problem, they're stuck. You may need to have the bridge remade here in Folsom, CA if it doesn't fit right. Your dentist won't be mad, but I'm confident s/he will remake it for you if it is uncomfortable. Be prepared to pay a second time.
