Q.
Dr Solanki, I have a dilemma I hope you cna help me resolve. Im 29, have good upper back teeth apart from one (3rd from back) that I used to have a mildly annoying discomfort from when running. WIth hindsight I would have left it! but my dentist proceeded to root canal it and I now have a huge black filling after a few attempts to resolve. A little piece at the back recently chipped off and has been refilled. My dentist is suggesting an ceramic inlay or a crown. Am i correct in thinking an inlay wouldnt offer any benefits to a normal filling other than aesthetic? Secondly, would you suggest fitting a crown now (destroying a lot of tooth) or leaving it until it really needs it if it cracks etc? Many thanks in advance
