Whatever you do please do not let the dentist talk you into more crowns than you need. Mine did - and three of my teeth broke off at the root - they are my upper front teeth. She clearly did not know what she was doing. Just be careful. -

I had a problem with one crown that kept on coming off, so I had crown lengthing done and it has worked. I am now waiting to have two more posts and crowns put in. I hope that the temporary crowns that I have right now, don't fall out while I am overseas on my vacation. I have an appointment with my dentist on Wed. Oct. 29 to get the permanent crowns put in. -

There is one tooth (very back on the left (Tooth #18) that had a permanent crown on it. Sometime during my vacation, the whole thing - crown etc. came out so now I will have to undergo Crown Lengthening and then have a temporary crown put in and then a permanent crown put in there. Before the temporary crown is put in, I will have to undergo impressions (YUCK! UGH!). This work that I need to have done, won't be done until next year -since my dental insurance is maxed out. -
