Question:
I have recently broken a crown that has been in place for over 10 years. It is only the actual white part of the crown that has broken off on one corner on an bottom molar tooth. It does not cause any pain or other problems, and I think the root canal and base of the crown is still OK. I do expect that in the coming months the remainder might also follow suit and break off. What would be the cost of replacing the white part if this crown, and would it be the best option to leave the tooth or to replace a.s.a.p.?
Ian
Answer:
Dear Ian,
It is a good idea to let a dentist to look at the tooth just to make sure there is no any other problem such as a damage to the tooth. Ideally you will need to get a new crown eventually, but if there is no immediate pain or discomfort it can wait a few weeks. If you call our clinic at 495-730-4334 and set up an appointment we will be able to tell what exactly is going on with your tooth and
a crown and how much it will cost to repair or replace it.
