The question of whether to place a crown is relevant when there are alternatives in terms of restoration.

Question:

I have only a stump left of my bottom tooth. Although the root seems to be normal, at least six months ago it did not inspire fear. Is it possible to make a prosthesis or extract and put an implant.

Answer:

If the root is strong, put a post in the root canal as a base for a crown. Implantation is an effective solution.

Question:

I had a root resection on my upper four three years ago. At first there were no problems, but recently the tooth started to crumble. Is it possible to put a crown on it?

Answer:

If the tooth is held on only half of the root, it is important to evaluate the possibility of prosthetics with a crown. A conclusion can only be made after a consultation with the doctor.

Let’s take a closer look at the “popular” cases that prosthodontists encounter in their practice.

  • If we are talking about aesthetic problems – pigmentation, chips or cracks, etc. – a crown is too traumatic a solution. A gentle option is the installation of a veneer, chemical or laser whitening or restoration.
  • If the tooth with nerves and with serious destruction (40-60% of tissue). When a filling fails, a ceramic inlay is made. It is important that the decision is objective and not the whim of the patient. If the inlay is placed on a minimal amount of tooth tissue, under chewing load it will crack and then the unequivocal verdict is extraction.
  • If the tooth is innervated and severely decayed. Objectively you can put a crown. Thus restore aesthetics, chewing and protect the remains from total destruction. Without receiving full nutrition, dentin becomes brittle and prone to fractures and cracks.
  • If there is little tooth left but the root is healthy, the doctor will place a crown using post and stump inlays.
  • If the image shows that the decaying tooth with a granuloma or cyst, the doctor decides on prosthetics. Thus, the formation is removed through the root canal, and sometimes it is necessary – removal and cleaning of tissues through the well.
  • If the crown part is destroyed by disease or trauma, and there are problems with the root, not always put a crown. After all, the root is responsible for the stability of the denture.
  • When it comes to wisdom teeth, problems with them are solved by extraction without restoration.

When deciding to get a denture, weigh the factors and use a dentist you trust.
