unfortunately as you signed the agreement the dentist made out you signed for all the treatment he had written down. if you didnt want your crown done for a while you should have made him print out a new one WITHOUT the crown on it and signed that. That would have meant he would have to take it off his treatment plan and then wouldnt have gone ahead with it.

to say that he should have remembered...well it doesnt work that way. the treatment planning takes 10-15 mins, depending on how much you pay.
the dentist then goes on to see numerous other people in that time and will most likely forget what was said.

Unfortunately since you did sign the agreement agreeing to all treatment taking place I dont think there is much else you can do...

Ah, the illumination of hindsight is a wonderful thing.
