Yeah I'd accept it from my dentist. A couple of years ago, they gave me a dental crown for one of my upper right molars. Two months later, it chipped. It felt weird in my mouth.

Why wouldn't this be acceptable? They source that crown from a supplier, and apparently there was a fault with it.

Did they apologize and try to fix it? This is not about being perfect. The parent post is fundamentally about caring about your mistakes.
