Is your dentist bad because they have to take a second impression?

Is your dentist bad because they have to take a second impression? There are a couple different ways to look the situation that occurs when a second impression has to be taken for a crown, denture or some other appliance.  The patient may feel that the dentist is not skilled enough to get the impression the first time.  The fact is, on some occasions a second impression may be needed to get it right!  If this is the case you have a dentist who cares about quality and won't proceed with a second-rate product.  Of course it is best to get it perfect the first time, but sometimes a second is necessary to guarantee the best finished product.
