My dentist has advised me for the last 2 or 3 years to get 6 crowns across the top front due to large fillings in the past, weakening etc., not to mention looks.
of them would be a replacement crown from many years ago.
I said I would finally go for doing 2 of them as my new dental insurance would cover half the cost of 2 of them. My dentist is advising that it is best if all 6 are done at once as it is much easier to have uniformity of the colour of the porcelain and also the fitting of them together with no gaps. I understand about the possibilty of the shades of porcelain not being exactly the same if I get the crowns done in 3 sets of 2 according to when I have enough insurance or spare cash.
is it really that hard for her to fit 2 new crowns to match and fit well with neighbouring crowns so that there are no gaps or wrong angles or whatever that does not look right? Maybe she just wants a good payday for 6 crowns all at once.
I get a second opinion?
