I am looking to make my life better, but I have doubts and fears about an upcoming dental procedure. My front two teeth are fake. One original tooth was cut down to support the crown that is my front two teeth. They are slightly whiter than my other teeth and one near-by tooth is slightly crooked. I am looking to (1.) whiten all of the surrounding teeth and then (2.) use the two teeth surrounding my crown to support a crown that would be my new, front-four-teeth. My question: Would any of you do any other procedure or does this sound like a reasonable idea? I am extremely insecure about my teeth and gum-line. I have a decent smile and teeth, but the slight yellow color, one slightly crooked tooth, and my front two teeth being fake really hurt my self-esteem... on a constant basis. Ideas and input much appreciated.
Dental procedures...?
If you have doubts and fears about the procedure maybe you should get a second opinion about what are your best options. I recently had a "bridge" put in for my front teeth. One is a "five-unit" (5 teeth). It looks completely natural and really good. The crooked tooth you have could be cut down and covered by a bridge that also covers the nearby teeth. I wish you luck!
Reply:The bridge on your front four teeth sounds like a good idea. Make sure that your dentist uses an excellent lab - you made need to pay an upgrade fee for the highest quality porcelain. The only other good option is to have an implant placed at the site of your missing tooth, quite a bit more expensive but worth it if you can afford the fee.
