Do NOT Crown Your Tooth! - Partial Crown (Cosmetic Dentistry)

[@HungNguyen-id7hg]

Saving any bit of the original tooth requires thoughtful and kind considerations. This world really need compassionate dentists like this presenter.

[@danlivni2097]

You are right about onlay. They are great. If you chip off half of the tooth or a little of the tooth, an onlay is much better than a crown. But if you need a root canal, your going to need a crown over an onlay

[@NeutronX101]

I had a partial crown done 5 years ago now that tooth aches. Wondering how they gonna remove it now.

[@journeymusic]

My regular dentist was out sick so when I chipped a tooth the only option I was given was to get a full crown. I wish I was aware I could’ve gotten a partial. Not only that after I got the full crown I was in pain they told me that I may need a root canal. Thank goodness I said no and after a couple days my pain went away. That place is no longer in business.

he is absolutely right unfortunately i watched this video after full dental crown on all of my teeth an now its not alligned there are gaps infront tooth and gum problems are on the way kindly thumbs up so people can be aware i wish i have watched before s**t went down

[@zweenanyimbo734]

The Game, sorry to hear about your experience. It's unfortunate we go through these unnecessary experiences with dentists and other doctors. It never occurred to us we had something to be concerned about, until the damage is done. Too much ignorance and corruption in the medical field. I hope you are finding ways to make peace with what happened.

[@ponnimae]

You are amazing for actually caring about saving people's teeth and not just being interested in making easy money off of crowns which seems to be the way most dentists operate. I had a filling fall out and even after having a long argument with my dentist and insisting he just fill it back up, he insisted on me getting a crown, refused to fill it and brow beat me into getting yet another crown, making it the 5th crown in my mouth. They last about 2 years and then come off, and I get to go in and get another crown remade.

[@rgonzalez1145]

As a Dental Hygienist, I would have hoped that a dental cleaning would have come first before the restoration. On the other hand, Great work. Thanks. : )

[@Seca95]

Thanks to you I got to save the remnants of my tooth after the root canal treatment I had last year🙏🏻 The idea of losing my tooth structure with a crown just didn’t sit well with me, as I want to keep and preserve as much of my natural teeth as possible. That’s how I found this video a couple of months ago. I don’t live in the US, so I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to find a dentist who could do this. Thankfully, I found a dentist who could in Turkey where I was on vacation last month. She made an onlay and I’m so happy I didn’t just go with what my dentist suggested!😊 She didn’t have the advanced equipment you have here, though. So I had to wait 4 days for them to design the onlay after they removed the old plastic filling - 4 days where I was scared my tooth would break while eating etc. But it was worth it👍🏻

[@AshaA3000]

That's brilliant. What was the name of the dentist/clinic you used in Turkey?

[@grandmav]

Is there a greater chance of bacteria getting in between the crown and the tooth? It just needs a very small space for bacteria to get in.

[@HexJK]

To all the people having money issues: Speak to your dentist and ask about all of your options before they start working on your mouth, don't just lay down and assume they're going to list out options for you as they drill through your teeth. You HAVE to ask what the plan is and what your options are for your teeth. This will save you tens of thousands of dollars, I am not exaggerating. If you're dealing with crowns specifically, ask how much your crowns will cost if they're made in-house, compared to in-lab. If the dentist says your teeth can have partial crowns, ask how much those are compared to full crowns (sometimes partial crowns cost more than full crowns). By doing this myself, the bill for 13 crowns and 1 filling was $10k instead of $22k (lab crowns were significantly cheaper), and I'm only half way done with my mouth. ASK QUESTIONS. TALK TO THE DENTIST. DON'T JUST LAY DOWN AND ASSUME THEY HAVE THE BEST PLAN FOR YOU.

[@philschiavone101]

I went to the dentist today, my total crown broke off with what little tooth structure that I had. My dentist was able to drill into my root canal and mill a crown that fit into the space. The crown basically created a post so the crown could be bonded to what little tooth was left. It worked so well that he struggled to get it off after fitting. The new crown feels like my old tooth.

[@cassie1dueces]

Thank you so much for this. This couldn’t be more clear and break downs are amazing!! Wish you were near by I’ve dealt with dentist that don’t explain it or show you. They want you to just say yes to something you don’t understand

[@UnknownAlien475]

Thank you so much!! I have a bit of molar cupping on my bottom left side, and my dentist recommended a full coverage crown right off the bat, despite the fact that it hasn't reached dentin yet. You saved me from a lot of regret and pain!!

[@jruskky7545]

Why is Dental always separate from Medical? I suffer so much from autoimmune disorder causing dry mouth. I fight as hard as I can. But continue to get riddled with cavities. The cost is so high deductible and out of pocket that I always have to pick and choose what to save and when. My wife had not 1, but 2 heart surgeries costing me less than my rear 4-6 teeth. Less by well over $1000 out of pocket?

[@joanbaczek2575]

Me too I always had dry mouth even as a little girl and always got in trouble for not being able to chew meat well enough to swallow come to find out the saliva glands for making the enzymes amalace that’s most responsible for breaking down meat in the mouth never worked. And I didn’t find this out til cancer treatment when the dr was describing the side effects of radiation to the saliva glands and that these changes can last a year or be permanent. I laughed in his face and said well what the hell? I had these symptoms you speak of my whole god damn life. Needless to say it’s worse now I literally have a burning mouth 3 years after radiation and two of my teeth just powdered and fell out of my face while talking to my boss

[@guaranteedallauthentic6074]

How I wish I had the chance to meet Dr. O when I was just a tiny 9 yr old girl...my life would have been different for sure. My left front tooth cracked/chip when I fell face down. The dentist grind my tooth and had a jacket ...that was around 1990's . When retainers are "in" I also had mine even if I actually didn't needed it. The backof my other front tooth had a small hole/ decay. The same dentist filled it. And days later on my 18th bday , I had a sac of huge ball of abscese at the back of the filled tooth ! I had a lot of guest but I can't open my mouth to welcome them ! Month later the dentist pulled my front tooth , got so frustrated I told her to remove all of my teeth because I dont want to have a piano ( alternate kind of real tooth and a false tooth and a jacket ) I was barely 19 years old then... I always join beauty contesr since I was just 6 and that changed when I lost all my upper teeth due to my stupid sudden decision as a teen and unfortunateky having a dentist without sympathy contributed to the fcked life I had. Got so depressed and lost the love of my life and lost all the confidence in the world. At 39 I have decided to begin @ 40 so I started the 1 yr process of dental implant. And this year on my birthday coincidentally I will have my final crown. Exactly 22 years ago I should have known this if only I had the chance of meeting Dr. O - the sexiest , most handsome , sympathetic and extremely intelligent Dentist.

[@RsRj-qd2cg]

For all of you saying you can only afford dentists who insist on extractions or crowns: you can probably find a guy who does onlays. They're similar to partial crowns and not as much as full crowns. Same thing with finding dentists who do pulp caps instead of referring out to endodontist friends for root canals even when the pulp isn't affected yet.

However, in the U.S. oral Healthcare is consider separate and apart from all other health systems. Most people must pay out of pocket bc they either don't have a health plan that covers it or if it does the coverage is miniscule. So they expect you to pay for dental care abd that's ridiculous bc poor dental health has been linked to many physiological issues like heart disease and cancer. Yet our Healthcare system refuses to cover dental care. Its outrageous that were being raked over the coals just to maintain our health it's ludicrous!! Makes me angry 😠!!

The problem with crownlay or partial crowns on your tooth looks of two different colors when with a full crown is all one shade

[@ashleymarie6682]

I had a root canal with onlay (covered about half my #19 tooth). Dentist at other offices have pestered me each and every visit (to the point i felt judged) to replace it with a full crown. One dentist treated me like i was stupid. I had had a filling and a deeper filling, then a root canal that should’ve been done to begin with, then retreated at 8 years due to a missed canal. I was done working on this tooth, it worked great, i could eat anything on it, zero pain for years. They told me it isn’t as strong and might break at any moment or my tooth itself might break. What can you say about this? It did fine for 12 years! then came loose yesterday so i am getting a crown to replace it today. Were they right about this? Or did it come loose due to normal expected longevity? I don’t see any additional decay.. i will find out today what shape my remaining tooth is in. They told me the tooth itself might fracture/break but that didn’t happen.
