my right front tooth has become discoloured

Q. Hello, my right front tooth has over the years has become darker in colour and quite sensitive, I’m guessing its rotting as the enamel is crack . It is sensitive to brushing and cold drinks. What would be the best option to fix the tooth, my other teeth aren’t the greatest either but no where near as bad. I know teeth are important but fixing them are very expensive and money is not available, basically I want to be able to smile confidently without spending alot of money. Thanks for reading.

A. It sounds like you might need root canal treatment and possibly a crown on the tooth. If your other teeth are not in good condition then it may be wise to have the others looked at aswell. Cosmetic work is not available on the NHS. You would be able to get basic restorative work carried out at a low cost.
Unfortunately good dental work comes at a cost laboratory bills alone can be up to £400 per tooth.
Kind regards
