Memphis paper had an article about dentists getting "crowns" made in China and having them air mailed for a quick turn around. Cost to dentist less than 50 bucks. Cost to patients 600-1200 bucks. Also, some people are getting lead poisoning from their crowns.

Next trip, ask your dentist where he gets his crowns. If he lies, sue him. It is a don't ask don't tell policy they use to scam us.
