Just got back from Sams Dental.. Had 10 Crowns .. they were great
Glad you had a good experience. I haven't used this facility (and wouldn't) because my experiences with dental mills have not been good.

I don't know what is meant by dental mills.
A dental mill is a place where the dentist works for the clinic or for another dentist in contrast to being in private practice for himself.
Dental mills put a lot of pressure on their dentists to generate income. I went to a dental mill where the dentist told me I needed a root canal and a crown. I got a second opinion from a dentist in private practice who said I only needed a filling. Friends of mine have had similar experiences with dental mills, which is why I will never again go to a dental mill. And why I get second opinions before doing things like root canals and crowns. (In my experience, and that of my friends, dentists in private practice are more honest.)
Ten crowns is a lot of crowns--and a lot of money for the dental mill. Did you get a second opinion? Are you sure you really needed ten crowns?
