Q. I am 26 years of age and have been fitted with a crown which i paid £750.00 on my front right tooth as after root canal treatment the tooth had darkened. I believe that the crown has a life of around 10 years. What are my options after this, can another crown be fitted if this one comes away? Or is an implant the only option?
A. A new crown CAN be fitted at a later stage if the tooth structure is strong enough. Root canal treatment tends to weaken the tooth itself, but I would be tempted to play it by ear and to monitor it for yourself.
A dental implant is another good option to replace a tooth- but I would look at all your options when you really need to. I would expect that the crown that you have recently had fitted has got some years of life left in it!
