caps and tooth loss

[wayne ficek]

will capping all of your teeth help prevent tooth loss?
my wife is Asian (poor teeth) and is worried about losing her teeth as she gets older.

Your probably looking at 700.00 to 1,000.00 a tooth and that's if you don't have to have any root canals. I believe just because you have a cap doesn't mean you can't loose what is left of the tooth. I think your best bet would be to go to a good dentist and let him advise you what to do.jmo
