My crown has a gap around can this cause like sharp pain in ear area?

Monday, August 3rd, 2009
Q.
Good Day Dr. Solanki, I had a crown done a little over a year ago. It was fine until it fell out about 3 months later and had a smell. I didn’t realize that food was getting food under the crown. So he cleaned it and put the crown back. The crown still has a gap around half where I know that food has been getting in. I haven’t gone back to him, because he’s pretty harsh on the mouth. So I did seek another dentist, which she looked at it and was shocked what she saw. I go back to her in August. My question is that, I’ve felt some pain here and there, can this cause like sharp pain in the ear/head area? It’s a molar, top left side. Thank you for your time!

My mother has few of her own teeth what are the options for her?

Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Q.
My mother is eighty years young and has only a few of her own teeth,(front/bottom) On a very recent visit to our dentist we explained how much her remainig teeth meant to her and could they be improved/saved? we asked about crowns, bridges,etc. His responce was quite negative and he put a very light coloured filling in one tooth and said that was about all that could be done!. I realise you can only coment generally without having more clinical information but your reponse would be appreciated very much. Regards

Is it a drastic step to get rid of 6 veneers and replace with crowns

Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Q.
Dear doctor, I have tetracycline staining of my teeth for which I got veneers for the upper front 6 teeth (incisors & canines ect.) 4 years ago. My teeth are also big and crowded. Now its time to change the veneers as they are getting yellow. I have been told that the only way to improve my smile is crowns (not veneers)and I feel it is a bit of a drastic step to get rid of 6 normal functioning teeth and get crowns instead. What is your opinion regarding this? I am sorry to ask a difficult question especially when you have not seen my teeth. Thanks!

Ive a root canal done on my molar and the dentist prefers temporary crowns advice?

Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Q.
Hello, I have had a root canal done to my second molar. My dentist has suggested that I best have a temporary crown fitted, as my tooth is very vulnerable. The reason for him to say this is because:- A) last week I had my tooth quarterly spilt, which he managed to extract and fill it up. B) this is what i dont understand, he says that the tooth above my second molar is sharp ( along those lines) and is not doing any favours to my second molar. C) if i decide to remove my tooth, there is a possiblity that my molar will eventually get loose and i might loose it. I havent had my wisdom tooth come out as yet. What’s a temporary filling? I personally find all this a hassle now, It’s so frustrating, can’t I just remove it!

Having the tooth out is always… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
