I Missing My Tooth

Some backstory. I a 31 year old F, have always hated my teeth. My teeth weren't so bad I NEEDED braces as a kid, but bad enough to be noticeable.

I had got engaged in October 2022 and decided I wanted nice teeth for my wedding/overall confidence. January 2023 i got invisaline, i knew a couple of people who had it and it seemed to work well.

At first I thought my insurance would cover 50%, that's what the people at invisaline quoted me, then a month later (after I had already started the treatments) they told me my payments would double because my insurance wouldn't cover as much as they thought. Bummer.

Then, a few months later I was told I needed a tooth removed. Turns out my left canine was still a baby tooth and it needed to come out so the adult tooth could come down.

It took forever, almost 9 months (luckily I was married by then) and costed an extra $700, but I had my tooth extracted on Dec 19th 2024. It was shitty timing with the holidays right around the corner but what can you do?

Today I went back for a check up with the oral surgeon staff. When I got there I asked how long before I should start seeing the adult tooth.

To my surprise, I was informed that my adult tooth wouldn't desend. The nurses basically said "yeah sometimes that just happens, you can look into getting an implant in 5 months if you want."

I started to cry. I spent the past year and lots of money on my teeth, just to now have a giant gap in them. I basically paid $700 for nothing, and if I want the implant it can cost between $1000 to $6000. I don't have that kind of money laying around.

I'm not sure if there's anything I can do in this situation, can I take legal action? Or is there nothing to be done.
