If any patient, regardless of age, happens to die shortly after the dental work is done, that may be tragic, but it doesn’t lessen the time and work that the dentist committed to the patient. <a href="http://kitchenerdentist.com/" rel="nofollow">Visit us</a> in our Ontario office.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16932322961994154958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21166579.post-82277071434599105732016-04-19T05:53:37.981-04:002016-04-19T05:53:37.981-04:00Thank you because you have been willing to share i...

Would the executor ask a dealership to refund the money paid for a car driven a dozen times; a clothing store to refund the money paid for a suit worn three times; a shoe store to refund the money for a pair of shoes worn 6 times; and so on. <br /><br />The dentist performed good quality work, invested his time and money on materials and labor for the dentures, and the patient was satisfied. He owes the estate nothing. The family's reasonable expectations were exceeded when the dentist told the widow to disregard the balance remaining on the dentures.
