Is it true that if you have a crown it’s difficult to colour match it with the rest of your teeth?

Thursday, September 2nd, 2010
Q.
One of my main front teeth was broken off several years ago, and I had a root canal and bonding done. The tooth is now sort of a grey color, and I went to see a dentist about possibly redoing the bonding work for cosmetic purposes(functionally the tooth is fine). He told me that he would not do bonding on that tooth because of the grey color. I thought that bonding would cover the grey, but apparently not. He told me that he would suggest a crown over the tooth. I have read a lot of information however that would seem to indicate that when crowing only one main front tooth it’s difficult to do a proper color match. Is this true? Would the crown be your suggestion as well, or are there other options that I should check into?,
A.
It is very difficult to do but… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)

I can’t get a crown so what else can I do?

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010
Q.
Hi, I have a filling in the back of my front tooth that has come loose and has started to rock. My dentist has used a sealant, but it doesn’t last more than a day. He said if the seal doesn’t last ill just have to live with it as getting a crown isn’t an alternative as it will never match my current teeth, which i agree with. My is their another option? Re-filling, bonding or something else? Thanks,
A.
