i have 1 bent tooth at the front

Q. Hi Dr, i am 27, female from uk i have recentley been considering this, i have 1 bent tooth at the front of my teehs and i didnt bother to wear braces when i was younger, as this tooth is overlapping my first front tooth that and i am scared as i cant clean it with a toothbrush in long term it can get decay on it. adn i migth lost both my teeth? is this true because my dentist told me to use floss on it as my teeth are very tight togather i am just wondering if i can have it half cut off a crown put onto this? will this be a good idea? Please can you answer my question i would be more greatful

A.

Crowded teeth are definately more difficult to keep clean, but by no means impossible. your dentist has given you the correct advise. Brushing and flossing regularly will keep this area decay free. Cutting the tooth ‘in half’ is definately not an option.

Kind regards
