Q. I have all four of my top front teeth crowned, one of these is a posted crown into the root of the tooth. this keeps failing. Presently it has been loose for about a month, but my NHS dentist will not touch it until it falls off for fear of making the root unusable. It is making my life really miserable as I live in fear that it will just drop at the wrong moment, i catch the tooth when I talk, and eating is night on impossible. I even carry a crown repair kit around with me at all time. What would be an alternative to this crown? If i opt for implant, would i be without a tooth completely, I am in my 30’s and the school run would be unbearable if my front tooth was missing. Could a comestic dentist place a false tooth straight way, or provide me with a deture temporarily or would it be better to have all of my front crowned teeth extracted and have an implanted bridge, or each tooth individually as they are required?
