Should I choose a better quality crown at a higher price or go for a cheap one?
Q.
I had a crown put on one of my molar teeth 23 years ago. It was slightly damaged 2years ago and my dentist advised me to have a replacement as there has been a small build up of plaque next to the damaged part. So I am having the old one taken off this week, but I don’t know which kind to have put on. I have been told that if I’d like a tooth coloured one I have two options. One would cost me £385, or a slightly lesser quality one would be £250. I am 51years old. Which do you think I should choose? Is the £385 crown so much better? Thank you.

Dear Enquirer,
Please ask the dentist to explain the differences between the two crowns and if poosible, to show you examples of the different crowns so you can see what you’re getting.

Is there any medicine for the removal of plaque from teeth???if any then plz tel me the name of that….
Hi I was wondering… i have white stuff on my teeth over it yellow stuff. Is this tooth decay, and would this be treated along with when i get my permenent braces?,
Hi Syed, I guess it might be plaque and yes it should be thoroughly removed before braces
I read about some infra-red scan that can show up early signs of tooth decay. Do you know when they will use these in clinics in the states?
THey presently have technology available to do this.
