Do I need a crown fitted if I have a cracked tooth?

Thursday, November 18th, 2010
Q.
I went to the dentist with a mild toothache on my left side second molar. The Dr. couldn’t find anything wrong until he noticed a small crack. He says I need a crown put on it. I’m trying to get other opinions. I’m worried he’s only doing this for the $$$. Thanks.,

Is tooth removal the only option with black teeth? I assume they are rotten but they’re not causing my any pain?

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010
Q.
On my top jaw my teeth between my canines have become black and smaller,due to a lack of dental hygene.Now I am starting to be more hygenic,but I fear that if I see a dentist he/she will want to simply remove the black ones.They don’t cause me any pain,just look quite horrible,so is removal the only option when teeth have become so black?I assume they are rotten,but obviously don’t know for certain.Any suggestions please.,
