I have a side tooth that is mostly old amalgam filling. Been there for years , no problem with any pain or sensitivity. Just looks dark and tooth has been chipped for years, again causing no problems. The tooth is unsightly if I smile wide enough to see it.
I was thinking of a crown and of course the dentist is eager to do one.
To make the tooth look better, a crown would be great. But I’m also aware of post crown problems! Have 2 crowns already.
So as the tooth has never given me any problems , I’m unsure what to do!
If I go ahead with a crown and there are issues, I’ll be kicking myself for not leaving the tooth alone and putting up with it’s almost black colour!
Is it best to leave it be?
Thanks
