      this made me feel better. im having to get a crown on my bottom front tooth cause it chipped really badly and trying to use a filling twice ended up with the filling snapping off. i was worried about the crown lasting but even the doctor I spoke to told me the crown should last me 10-25 years but apparently they can last even longer!

      Mine has lasted 29 years. It will be replaced in february and my dentist will also place a crown on another fronth tooth. The other tooth was also broken on the top when i fell but was still alive. The other tooth was repaired but is discolouring for a long time. Its darker than the other tooth. Now with the two crowns it finally will look better. If they last 28 years again i will be 72.

    I stopped trusting crowns when two different dentists placed two different crowns, and both failed within a year. Dentistry has become a rip off, and I no longer trust dentists. It was one thing when i was a kid, dentists were an honest medical profession. Dentists have become the used car salesmen of the medical field. Now I am just relegated to waiting for my teeth to fall out because there are no honest dentists in the metro Phoenix area.

    • @MorgueSpectre
      @MorgueSpectre Год назад +1

      The reason my teeth got so bad, was because I had so many bad dentists one after another and just finally quit going. I figured I will wait til they are beyond repair to see one. 12 years later and I finally had a tooth so bad I had to go to a dentist. I got really lucky with this one. I wish I had found them years ago, ended up needing 2 root canals and 4 crowns :( 12 years ago could have just gotten a filling or two. I hear you though.. it is super hard to find trustworthy dentists anymore. So far everything has been good with this one, hopefully these crowns last me a long time.

Went to the dentist 2 weeks ago and she did a root canal on my tooth. I didn't feel a thing and it was honestly strangely relaxing lmao. I honestly could have fallen asleep if I was tired. And when I went back in to get the crown she said she wasn't going to use any anesthesia to make sure she got the infection and if I felt any pain at all she would give me anesthetic, well didn't feel a thing during the crowing procedure besides one part where they put like a blue string like looking thing around the base of my tooth, that was a little uncomfortable. But it was just like u flossed, little too rough.
      But I'm so glad to have gone. No more tooth pain is A HUGE RELIEF and a lot of stress gone. I was literally laughing at myself when I got home at how scared I was for no reason. Lmao.
      Edit : just wanted to add for the root canal the only thing I did feel was the 1st initial shot of the anesthetic. Which isn't too bad because they rub lidocaine on your gums beforehand but it still stings just a tad.

      @BoneOfBoneville Год назад +7

      Hi! I hope you are not still suffering. So what my dentist told me is that a crown must be thicker to protect the tooth inside. It also keeps it strong so when you bite, it won’t crack or break. My crown bothered me for a month. I had to have it adjusted 3 times. Go back to your dentist, and explain everything you feel. Have them do the carbon paper marking, multiple times and tilt your head left and right. Often times we bite straight down to test the bite, but when we chew it’s not just straight up and down. I hope this advice helps 💗

    When they grind your teeth to fit the new crown, does this grinding affect your tooth enamel? Because dentist indicated my crown needed to be replaced because it had a crack, I trusted him and it was replaced it, when it arrived it was very high, and now I am having issues bcs dentist keeps grinding my bottom and top teeth (top teeth is my original, no filling, etc) but dentist indicated they cannot grind the crown, to avoid breaking it, then, now they grinded, but then my left side where they replaced a filling (they said it needed to be replaced, when it was done I believe four years ago), now I am having headaches on both sides of my mouth , left and right top and on the right side, where the crown was replaced the pain extends from where the location of the crown to my neck, just below. I believe the right side was grinded too much that now my structure is uneven, so please advise, because I am really tired of dealing with this issue. It feels that the left side is higher than the right side. If dentist was notified that the crown was too high, why he did not send it back to be replaced for the right one? Please advise... I am tired of going back and then having issues. I had always taken care of my teeth, so all this grinding is worrying me. My former dentist retired and this new dentist took over, he was well recommended by my former dentist. I am very worried about all the grinding and all new problems, because I never had these issues before with my other crowns. My former dentist always told me, "if you have no pain or it is not bothering you, I do not need to do anything, but it is just decision". I was needed all this work done in my last visit with my dentist last year, before he retired.

Think about people with dentures, they cannot feel what they are checking it actually is a weird feeling compared to what it feels like when we chew. We have nerves we can feel everything we do with our teeth.if you get root canal you remove your nerve it changes more than you would think , that’s the easy way out which is why a root canal is cheaper .

    Hello sir ,
    I got my silver temporary crown removed for a permanent crown . I had the silver crown since I was like a kid not sure age. But now with the porcelain my bite feels off. After multiple adjustments I'm now being told I will need braces . I'm noticing on the left side where crown is instead of a nice curve it goes in a straight line but not in a good way. My right side also feels slightly like it's hitting high.
    I got a tooth near the crown adjusted because it got a filling but was told they didn't want to go any lower and that I will need braces. But I never had this issue with the silver crown .
    Does this have to do with my crowded bottom teeth or is something wrong with the crown itself. I've been told the crown looks fine .
    So was wondering if braces is my last resort. When I line up my right side best I can I'm noticing a slight gap between top teeth and the crown . Please I'd like to hear your opinion. Thanks

    I am getting my first crown tomorrow at the age of 44, the reason I need it is because my tooth chipped real bad. I actually need another tooth crowned because it chipped but I got it filled eight years ago and it’s been hanging in there, so I still have to get a crown on 2nd tooth just because the filling isn’t all that strong. my third crown that I need is on a tooth that needs a root canal, but the endodontist says there is bone loss, and I need to see a periodontist first before he does the root canal. I mean he did give me a choice whether to go along with the $1700 root canal procedure, but then he said I could feel some pain six months down the road or five years down the road so go have the periodontist sprinkle some bow and dust on there and then will do the root canal and then I’ll do the crown. Kids take care of your teeth because all this out-of-pocket dental care is super expensive. But, I refuse to have any of my teeth polled. Even if they are a molar which nobody will see. Think about it if you have a molar missing on your bottom, what is that molar above it gonna do, so yeah do you need all your teeth, so take care of them, and if you like to do drugs like I do and drink alcohol, just make sure you’re brushing your teeth twice a day and I floss after every time I eat but that’s just me. I cannot handle having food. Stuck in my teeth. Hope this helps I remember kids, don’t skip out on dental hygiene. Here’s another note that I have: dental procedures are a gamble, just like with anything in life. Some people can go decades without any bad things happening, but others have it all happen at once. So it’s better to be safe than sorry so if you can afford it get your stuff squared away because nobody wants to look at somebody with an ugly disgusting smile.

    Dental plans that you have discussed from either this or your other videos are they through Employer? or sold directly to Consumer, I work in Healthcare and we have always chosen a more expensive plan to have a lower co pay but end up paying so much for a Porcelain Crown with a In Network Provider :( You have discussed the price of $750-$1500 is that the cost of the Porcelain Crown after insurance?

      MetLife zirconia crown offer by my Denise is only 790 range, and I get 80% coverage however if you buy person dental plan you get 50% coverage, that means you only pay $395 out of pocket. Also MetLife monthly fee is $35-$45 so around $400-530 a year for insurance fee.

    My temporary crown fell out a week ago and it happened twice. My dentist charges so far are $3,507 and I haven't even received the crown. Now, my dental insurance is refusing to pay because they said the procedure wasn't necessary. It says the plan pays for 50% and they are refusing to pay anything so I'm stuck in this financial situation with no help. The dentist is not even investigating it further. I'll probably file an appeal. They charged me also when the temporary crown fell out. Any advice?

    Okay so I really hope you see this so that I can get your opinion on if it’s a scam or not. The other day, i had x rays done since I started going to this new dentist. They showed me the xray, and they found a cavity between teeth #3 & #4 and the cavity is actually on both of those teeth. From what I remember, the dentist said that it seems pretty small so he’ll just continue to monitor it and I just need to be better at flossing and brushing. If the cavity gets bigger, he said one option (or only option, i don’t remember) would be to get a crown on one of those teeth, and get a large filling on the other one to prevent any other root canals needing to be done. Is that a thing? Would just fillings be enough or would that cause further issues? I started going to this office because the crown I had gotten initially at a different office was done so poorly I went to this office for a second opinion (this replacement crown fits so much better)

      Root canal doesn't last forever, at max around 20 years and for hard chewers it's likely around 10 years. Wasting money on root canal is not worthwhile just go and get implant and be done with that tooth.

    I have been interested in getting porcelain veneers for a long time. My dentist first told me I could just get 6 veneers. I read somewhere that if a dentist tells you to just get 6, they were just trying to get your money because you really need at least 8 to look right. Now, the same dentist is telling me that I should get 8 crowns to give them more support. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my teeth and I have never had any cavities on those front teeth. I feel like he is just trying to get more money. Do you think I should get crowns if nothing is wrong with my teeth?

    • @josephkelly13
      @josephkelly13 9 месяцев назад +1

      No don’t do that. It’s a pretty bad idea to get veneers for no reason. The crowns could fail in time or they could just look like shit. If it fails the dentist will have to reprep your teeth to put on new crowns, by doing that they’ll remove more of you teeth. It will also cost more. And yeah there are a lot of dentists out there just getting money. Keep ya naturals they look fine. If anyone is giving you grief about them, they’re a piece of garbage. If you do get the veneers, don’t get zirconia. It’s cheaper, but if the crown is improperly made it could grind your opposing teeth as it’s a harder material than tooth enamel. Get porcelain fused to lithium disilicate or porcelain fused to metal. Take care.

    • @josephkelly13

      Thank you so much for replying. When I said nothing was wrong with my teeth, I meant I have never had any cavities or other problems with my front teeth that I feel like would justify crowns.

Again, thank you so much for answering my question.

      Ah I see. Definitely ask around. One more thing, more of a personal gripe of mine. Ask them to see what lab they are using. Do a little digging. Look up the lab that they are using. And I know better crowns are more expensive, but you’re going to have these things in your mouth for everyone to see for a long time. Not everyone is a sheister, but there’s a lot of funny business goin on in the industry. Stay safe, be sneaky, and please be kind. You don’t want to make an enemy out of a potential friend.

    I will be having this procedure done next week, but I think all I'll get then is the temporary crown.
    The story starts when I was twelve. That year, my dad, stepmother, and I were visiting my grandparents (who lived a few hours away from us) for Thanksgiving. After the big meal, one of my cousins and I were playing with a wiffle ball in the backyard. When my cousin threw the ball, she accidentally hit me in the mouth and knocked out part of the tooth in the top row center. My dad got out a phone book and called the first dentist he could find who would be willing to open their office on Thanksgiving long enough to fix the tooth for me. In the meantime, my dad was told to put the broken piece of tooth in a glass of milk and bring it with us. After that was fixed, about 2-3 weeks went by, then I was eating a piece of candy at my baby-sitter's house and the tooth broke again. I told my mom what the dentist had said on Thanksgiving. Not only did she do that, but she also forgot to bring the glass of milk with us when I saw my own dentist the next day, so my dentist had to rebuild the tooth. It's been almost 35 years since that happened, and my current dentist is wanting to do a dental crown. I'm a little nervous about the procedure, though.

      It's very tough to match a crown to natural teeth so sometimes people will do a crown and veneers

      Yes Crowns don't match the rest of your teeth, all 6 of my top fronts are crowns despite having only one cavity in the front that required a root canal.
      Yes it sucked but surprisingly only a little soreness for a few weeks.
