- Dentist says do not crown your teeth! Dr. O follows up a popular video with a clinical example of how veneers are better choices for repairing front teeth. He also shares the 4 reasons why one might need a dental crown over a dental veneer. Dr. O is a cosmetic dentist in Springfield, MO that has a passion for creating smiles through innovation.
The 4 reasons that a front tooth may need a dental crown are:
1 - Replacement of currently existing crown
2 - A tooth with a root canal
3 - Severe decay that wraps behind the tooth (very rare)
4 - Severe tooth wear (crowns should only follow repositioning of teeth to their original position with braces or invisalign.

You got a nightclub in the back there or something
Why you want in?
Lol
Its a set to another bs scam yt channel they run
@@HappinessOrDeath lmao
It's the private room where they give you oral.
I never went to the dentist as a child,and I'm now paying the price. 🤦🏾♀️
Tee Love I’m sorry 😢 I feel your pain
Same here girl ..... now im going on root canal procedure on my 2 front tooth
I’m sorry, I completely understand.
I was never taken when I was a kid and once I was finally able to afford to go on my own when I was 19, it was a lot. 7k later lol
Girl same, I want to cry at how bad it’s gotten
You gotta look at it this way, at least you're taking care of it now! It's way better than not having teeth. It's worth taking care of from this point on 😊🙌
As a Prosthodontist, I couldn't agree more....in fact, with the advances in material science, there are fewer posterior teeth that need crowns as well. That being said, nothing is better than a cast gold crown on a second molar if your tooth has fractured and you are a grinder. Dr. D
I’ve worked in the healthcare sector for 25 years so I love to see healthcare professionals who are passionate and innovative. Thinking outside the box to improve life for your patients is really exciting. Wishing you continued success. Also I wish you would expand to Ireland we need improvement in our dental sector.
I like that you're a medical professional that has morals beyond your wallet. I used to work in a pharmacy as the lead tech and kept our store number one in the district and would still constantly get into trouble for letting people know that they didn't always have to buy those outrageously expensive medications that would do more harm than good in some situations..I left because I started realizing that I had different morals than that industry. It's funny how most medical and pharmaceutical professionals will almost always take care of their own wallet first and recommend the expensive treatment that isn't always 100% necessary rather than looking out for the patients best interests in all aspects. You, sir, deserve a slow clap.
This is so true. I just recently had an extraction on last Monday and on that same day. My dentist ofc and telling me that I need a root canal and crown and they schdeuled for 09/04. I dont know about that.
Bryan Edge indeed..sadly this is the decayed mindset of the 21st century
veneers P25,000 each more expensive than CROWN and root canals here in Philippines RCT + Crown P13,000 hehheheh But he is right clinically...
Our cost per crown is the same as a root canal.
@Bryan: You, my friend: are spot on!

It really depends on how your teeth are. Crowns saved me 100x more money, more headache and more pain than getting veneers. Most dentists don’t talk you into what you need, they talk you into what will take longer and what will possibly keep you coming back and spending money and it’s a shame that people do that. Took me 4 dentist before one sat down, looked at the issue and gave me a solution instead of a temporary bandaid. AND....he did all the work for free so I can enlist in the military with no issues.
Thank you for that comment.
What did they do?
Bless his heart
It would be irresponsible for a dentist to tell people "you know pick the option that is cheapest". Crowns are not a permanent fix, they last 10-15 years. If they cant be replaced then the only option is implant or some sort of denture. Sure a veneer might have you back in 15-20 years too, but they can usually very easily be replaced with more venners, and youre actually just replacing the failing venner material not the tooth. Worse case scenario you need a crown that will then last another 15 years. So by going veneer youre talking about something lasting worst case scenario 10 years, to something worst case scenario lasting 25, but maybe 35 years worst case. This is why they should reccomend this kind of approach to you.
We charge the same in our office for veneers and crowns. This allows us to always give our patients the very best for their particular situation. - Dr. O
When I got married I started going to my Wife's dentist. It didn't take long before I realized he was more into selling unnessicary hi profit procedures than honest care. Constantly telling me I needed this or that, while ignoring 2 years of pain as "not flossing well enough". I got a second opinion from a DDS who found a severe abscess in my jaw. He also sold my then 79 year old father in law a mouth full of crowns that looked ridiculous. Like bright white chicklets for several thousand dollars. Lesson- do you research and find a reputable dentist and stick with him or her.
That would almost be true unless we charge the same amount for both. Huh.
I was being sarcastic for effect. We charge the same for both so your statement about me trying to sell people is incorrect. I simply want people to get better care by not having so much of their tooth drilled away if they don’t have to. This was the point of the video.
@@InnovativeDentalofSpringfield I wasn't directing my comment at your honesty and genuine care. Your video was very helpful. I was describing bad experiences with one Dentist. There are many like him as others could likely attest to. Fortunately, Dentists like this are in the minority.
Not too sure there are any reputable dentist around anymore. I've noticed for at least 30 years dentist seem to always push the expensive fix even if it's not warranted.
@@InnovativeDentalofSpringfield they didn
They didn't say anything like that, what are you replying to?
This man is unlike a lot of dentists in my state of MD. He has integrity and a Health Care Orientation. He is not first driven by monetary gain. Wish I lived near him!
Anyone see the flashing lights coming from the door in the back
It's the client teeth. They need to clean it well😂
LoL @ AlternativeSand YT , Dr. O explained what that was about on one of his vids, it's a TV room and the high speed video he's using makes the lights inside that room flicker behind the glass doors 😊
AlternativeSand YT lol I do
There’s a nightclub behind that door, don’t listen to the lies.
@@ifeellikeyeezus8525 😂🤣😅
I wish dental work was more affordable. Thanks for the info! God bless!
You should shop around! To tell you the truth, most dentists are transparent as there are usually charging the fee guide pricing. Some dentists also offer payment plans at little to no interest. Most dentists are pretty flexible 😊🙌
I hear you. 90% of dentists in the U.S. are just looking to make a fast buck. Drill, fill, and bill. Try starting a dental savings account and put a little in it each paycheck! Hope it helps.
It's called Big Dental missy...bloodsucking dentist$ :(
@@happyhealerforpresident2029 you realize health care for all will mean like 40% tax at least, which is essentially the same thing as having a health savings account...it's not free...nothing is
@@matta.5363 my grandpa is well off and paid for all our dental needs I would go in with one visible cavity to me and they said I needed 8 done!!! My teeth felt fine only had a cavity! To this day me and my bro still think the dentist overbilled/worked us and told my grandpa we needed way more than we did bc the dentist/staff knew my grandpa was well off. Thank you for confirming my suspicions
I hope i get a dentist like you, not someone just trying to do unnecessary bs at the expense of my teeth
You can tell this guy is about save the tooth at all cost
I like his style 😄
I’m a semester away from starting medical school. I wasn’t really excited before but I love how you talked about dentistry like sculpting it’s really cool
I'm glad you advocate about "saving more of our tooth structure". Most dentists just don't care that much about my request and concern. I didn't want to give them hard time either, just looking out for my well being. Once the damage is done, there's no way to get it back ever. Thanks for explanation and videos.
Most dentists don't care about your health they just want money and to keep their license, which if the recommend holistic approaches they can have their license taken away
Hi there doc, 3rd year dental student here! This is a great video and you explained everything behind the decision making in a simple and entertaining way! Glad I came across your channel!
While I was in the service. Anytime whenever you have toothache they pulled it out. Now each one of them is a $1000. That's just insane.
Implants? Or crown?
🤣🤣😂
Get the implants done in Turkey.
Wow! a honest doctor may God bless your soul.

I actually trust this guy....alot of dentists are kinda shady
Wdym
For real
Veneers are usually more expensive than crowns!
We charge the same for either.
@@InnovativeDentalofSpringfield Speaking of shady. Quite a lot of places just immediately check if you have your wisdom teeth and mark them for removal even when there's nothing wrong with them. They get quite disappointed when you refuse after repeatedly being pushed to remove them.
Thank you for your professionalism and honesty. Unfortunately, I have had terrible experiences with dentists and can’t find an honest, knowledgeable one in New York. If I could, I would fly to your clinic!
Thanks for explaining this. In July 2020 I broke one of my back teeth & we were in lockdown, so it took 8 months of going back & forth to my dentist getting filling etc. I got my crown fitted in March last year. Last week I was brushing my teeth & I used salty water as I had a sore mouth & had the dentist that day. My crown fell out my mouth & went down the sink. My tooth was drilled down to make way for the crown. He said just leave it or get it taken out. I'm so unhappy that it didn't even last a year. 😔😔
Did they replace it for free cuz that sounds like negligent practice as crown should lasts many years.
@Mausi Imlicht Thanks for replying. I did speak to them but they said I can't get my money back. So I will just have to put up with it. 😔
@@tracywade9078 wow. I’d switch providers. :/
Can you be my dentist?! Finally someone that actually cares about people not $$
Ren G. Its not for being care for $$ its for doing a treatment that it’s proven that will last and work. Unfortunately the more cracked or decayed a tooth is the more difficult it’s to predict how it will respond the tooth nerve. The thing is you can do a treatment like this with a 40% of success ratio or make root canal treatment in the needed teeth and then go for crown and expect a 99% success ratio. At the end you could end paying 2 times. The patient is the one that takes the risk, not the dentist. That’s the reason that the majority of dentists go for something that it’s proven that will work. But hey if you want to ending paying 2 times... we’ll it’s your choice. Maybe works, maybe not.
6 years and going strong without root canals needed. If you have a con beam 3D, then check the endo, success is somewhere around 60% if you classify success as no radiolucient lesson.
@@InnovativeDentalofSpringfield Can an adult 30+ actually get braces or anything to fix a bite? I have a severe problem with an overbite where my bottom teeth have ground into my top ones, causing pain and tooth wear. I'm trying to figure out what my options would be. Can they extend my rear molars with a composite to add some height to my bite?
@@StreetWorksMedia I have never seen anyone that did not have an overbite or an underbite. It would be strange to see someone who, when they close their mouth, their front teel clamp together perfectly flush. Therefore, your problem may be hat you don't have enough of an overbite, not that you have an overbite.
@@kriswhite91What dentist conned you into thinking crowns are 99% successful? The less tooth structure you remove the longer your teeth will last . Drilling for crowns damages nerves often leading to nerve death, abscess and root canals. Crowned teeth usually get decayed underneath because you can't clean them and they can't be remineralized by saliva. If you get an onlay, ,filling or veneer, you're far less likely to have your tooth die which then requires root canals which get dangerous infections. The basic principle is that it's best to preserve as much tooth structure as possible. Dentists make far more money from crowns than fillings or onlays. They also make more money from crowns because crowning leads to needing future expensive work.
I've had all three suggestions for my "chipped"/fractured front tooth. I did composite from the time I fractured my front tooth until I was 18-19 years old. I'd have to get it redone at least 3-4 times a year. Finally I got a veneer done and from then until I was 23 it would pop off at least once a year. My old dentist retired the year after I got the veneer done and the last time it popped off my new dentist and I agreed that enough was enough and I went ahead with doing a crown. Not only does the crown look and feel at a whole lot better, but it also feels so much more stronger than when I had the veneer. I think it's very dependent case by case on whether or not a veneer or crown would be best. In my case, the crown was the better option.
Glad it has worked for you. I would have first checked out your bite before I ground down your tooth more for a crown. Usually if a veneer or filling keeps coming off, it is due to a poor bite or misalignment on the lower arch.
My front tooth is completely chipped. More than half of it is missing. I'm worried what will happen when i have to get the composite replaced. I don't know if i need a crown or implant because it feels a little loose. :\
What you described is truly a reality. I have been practicing 25 plus years and veneers are not always the answer and in fact rarely are the answer. Additionally a veneer in my practice cost more than a crown.
I had chipped front tooth when i was 7 years old, never got a problem like pain or loosening conditions. When i was 18, went free dental camp there they said you need to go root canal, it may worse if you not, so they made a hole cleared everything and closed with cement or something, but it went of next day. Hole got opened never went doctor again because of no money. Now my age 28 So real problem started 4 years ago, tooth becoming black slowly, sometimes i feel embarrass so finally i visited doctor 1 week ago started treatment to get a crown...
Does it look natural and feel close to natural
Yes this video helped so much! Lots of dentist want to cut straight to crowns or root canal especially if you don’t have that much money. But thanks for the honesty!
Thanks for doing what you do and don't be pressured by other dentists.
An honest dentist giving solid information. I like this guy. More dentists need to be like this.
To all future dentist out there , this Dr SHOULD be your model. Otherwise you still have the chance to shift to other courses many souls will thank you later. -just my2 cents
Agree. Most dentists become theves and are the main reason why teeth cant last through your entire life. Low morale standards in the entire profession due to the massive amount of money involved. It is a mystery to me why policy makers havent intervened yet.
One success story does not mean all cases are a success story. I would like to see dozens of patient, randomly chosen, before accepting his ideas about dental treatment. He may be a good dentist but he also seems like a better salesman
Unfortunately it's an establishment
th-cam.com/video/hMgYRY1qoNQ/w-d-xo.html
Great video by an honest Dentist. If only all Dentists were like this.
This dentist just effortlessly leaves the viewer with a smile .. thanks for making us look way smarter than yourself .. hehe 🙂
I usually dislike dentist but I love this guy❤ He seems really genuine and love his personality...
I have a naturally small front tooth. My dentist made it look bigger by using filler. This was 20 years ago and still looks great!
Has the coloring changed of the filler?
It's still intact woww magic
Great insights. Thank you.
On you’re 5-year patient, what procedure did you apply to the lower central incisor (which looks completely decayed away)?
Kinda pissed bc when I was 18 a dentist I went to see took advantage of my lack of knowledge and gave me a root canal for a tooth that could've been fixed with a filling bc of the "possibilites" now I'm trying to replace a missing tooth:-/ wish I seen this video years ago
Right before the Covid clusterpoop that claimed far too many lives, and disrupted ever more, I had a big box dentist tell me I needed 2 root canals. I had no pain, no sensitivity, no issues at all, but the x-rays revealed a very large and deep cavity in one tooth near the gum line, and another tooth with a significantly smaller spot at the gum line. I have had nothing but trouble with the tooth/fit of the crown that had the smaller cavity, and I now wonder if I even needed the root canal at all.
@@ElianaTali yeah that sucks too. Moving forward we just have to speak up
Same happen to me ! Now I’m trying to figure out veneers or implant my root canal tooth crumbled /chipped mad as F
Same happened to me I want to sue his ass.
dentist just shaved off too much of my molar teeth now there’s sharp pain and it’s super hypersensitive every time I bite down on hard stuff... no problems before
Thanks so much for this video. It's so refreshing to hear your perspective. I came up during an awful time in dentistry in New York City I think, where dentists usually took the worst case scenario approach. I'm paying for it now in big bucks to correct my teeth and structure. I have so much tooth and gun damage, and shifting, from excessive fillings, extractions, root canals, etc. over the years. Soon we will be addressing a tiny chip I've been carrying in my front chopper tooth (this tooth is the sister of my favorite 2 front teeth). I refused any dentist who tried to touch it. It's barely visible, however, I know I have to get to it. Now I'm working with a dentist I trust and when we get to that tooth I'll be sure to bring this up. Great info here.
Thanks Dr. O for always giving us the best advice!!! So glad you are knowledgeable and trustworthy!!!
You bet Morgan. Thanks.
Thank you for being so honest about this kind of things, you're a real teeth hero! ^_^ Some dentists, or I've seen a lot that just wanna do the work and not say anything helpful to saving teeth.
your comment is bullshit. tooth decay is 90% diet/ 10% flossing/brushing.
Most damage is caused by diet and deficiencies
Hello. I am a dentist and I have a question about veneer case you posted. Veneers don't bond well to the teeth that are missing enamel. In your example, it looks like most enamel was decayed and removed. Are you not worried about veneers bonded to core build up or dentin?
Where can I get a dentist like this 😌
Exactly !! 😀

I love his enthusiasm (very exceptional), but root canals are a problem. Still, he's at the head of the pack. Very knowledgeable and thinks outside the box.
@@AtlantaBill I don't think it is outside the box. He just uses his brain and he has experience. His way of thinking is the right, save as much tooth structure as you can and help. I just hope that he keeps his positivity and way of work through the years.

Your channel is brilliant! Thank you for your incredible information. My front are all crowned, with 2 implants, and a bridge. Teeth history I had massive erosion and decay throughout my mouth. Its been a rough couple of years. But officially I am now a regular patient with a beautiful healthy white smile 😃
I wish I lived in the US I need to see you, you could solve all my teeth issues!
No you don't! Crowns cost upwards of $2,500.00 apiece in the U.S. and dental insurance only covers cleanings. That's why many Americans go to Mexico for their dental work. Dentistry is the most profitable of all of the medical professions. Their profits are UNBELIEVABLE. They are extremely greedy. It's morally reprehensible the amount of profit they make.
That's extremely impressive! This is really helpful on being able to make good choices. Many dentist are just crazy in what they will do to the patients to make money!
Yes,you are TRUE and professional stomatologist.People who are your clients are blessed to have you.
Greetings from Croatia🤗
a root canal is a $1000 in the US?
that is really expensive, it is $50 to a $100 here in Jordan.
now I know why you don't have universal health care in America lol 😂
we don't have universal health care either but at least health care is affordable here.
I only paid $220 for my root canal in Honolulu and the result is good until now. The rest of the charges were covered by my insurance.
In Malaysia it cost only RM 1 = 0.25 cent US dollars in a public hosp (private hosp probably pretty much the same price as any other country) , the rest of the payment Subsidized by our government for the citizen.
I was just quoted $2208 for a single tooth root canal without insurance
@@MrTedflick without insurance is really hard. You have to pay everything including your medicine.
Free in England as long as you’re in education 👌
Oh wow, that looks nice. I used to be really scared of the dentist, didn't go for a long time and had a lot of decay (not so much cavities, but worn down teeth). Then with a lot of courage I went back to the dentist and got over my fear. He made me veneers to. I was so proud, within a week I lost both front teeth veneers in a week, they where replaced, took for a week of three. Every few weeks I would lose a veneer untill the point my dentist gave up and just stopped replacing them. Now I have worse teeth then before I went to the dentist. Wish I would live near your practice. I would definitely make an appointment.
This is the best information I've ever heard.
hard to believe that patient didn't have affected nerves
This was really GOOD information! So glad to know there are options to having crowns. Thank you!

This guy seems honest. Maybe I'm just unlucky because I had a dentist that was "crown happy". It got so bad when he wanted to do another one that I went to another dentist. He said a crown wasn't necessary. I sure wish I saw this video first. Thank you for posting it. I'm now a subscriber.

Respect your honesty.
Thank you so much for doing this video. I recently had a composite with an existing tooth fragment which was an angular frontal Chip 0 to 2 mm front left to center that failed. The original composite lasted thirty years without decay, root failure or discoloration. Every single dentist I have visited wanted to cap my front tooth. (Central Florida) finally found a reputable composite dentist ,and voilà they were able to transform a very healthy tooth back to a condition that was indeed “cosmetic” ,but returned all the benefits of not grinding down a normal tooth without side effects. Yes, I won’t be ripping any potato chip bags open with this tooth. But I am left with a healthy frontal tooth structure that in the future I can change if needed instead of something that is irreversible.
Great. Glad the video helped and thanks for sharing. I wish you the best.

Thank you for this video 😀 I need a good dentist and this has given me hope that there are good ones out there
I had one of my canine teeth crowned until it was extracted because my teeth is crowded due to wisdom tooth growing behind and it was the weakest link. It was still strong and no problem at all when it was extracted and I never regret it. I was a nut eater and I don’t think that veneer would last that long if I keep on eating nuts. It was a zirconium crown and I really picked the strongest one because I’m scared to loose my tooth again. I will never pick veneer because I don’t think that it’s strong enough. Just sharing because there are also horror stories behind veneers.
I love this type of dentist, I think if u are professor im sure every students in our school will love you the way you teach and ofcourse ur looks.hehe☺

Just watching it makes my eyes tear up.I dream about beautiful smile.I'm 46 but when I was a teen they pulled 3 of my teeth without even giving it any thought, now I need another tooth pulled because I found out from another dentist that the previous one butchered a root canal. Where were you when I was younger? I gave up on so many of my dreams because of being ashamed of my smile but trying to do any work now when dental covers maybe one crown a year, how do I fix my front teeth and make them all look white when I can only do one tooth a year? Your job must be so rewarding!
I pray God sends you a good affordable smart dentist
You do one crown a year, that's how.
I totally agree. My mother was raised in Costa Rica in poverty and also has bad genetics when it comes to her teeth. When I was 5 we got into an accident and she lost a few teeth when they hit the steering wheel. She was only 40 years old and the genius she went to suggested pulling all her teeth pretty much said it was her only option. My mother had all her teeth pulled not knowing any better and has had dentures ever since. I am now 31 years of age and am suffering from her bad genetics and am broke being that I live in New York my whole life and come from nothing and have had some unfortunate events in my life that have always prevented me from having the extra money to fix my teeth. I wish there was something I could do to fix my smile b4 I end up like my mom. I'm only 31 and have held back from so many things in life, like getting married because I'm hoping to have my teeth fixed first, but like I said I just simply don't have the money.

In the meantime do whats best for your oral health ... switch to a fresh veggie diet - broccoli spinach kale moong sprouts and oats plus berries oranges bananas apples etc. and make sure to clean your mouth with a soft bristle brush after every meal or at least rinse with salt water and at night time use some herbs to clean your teeth - look up Patanjali toothpaste or you can just use a mixture of one teaspoon pure mustard oil + half teaspoon salt+ a pinch of turmeric at night before bedtime. Also use clove oil at the bad spots, exercise regularly, deep breathing and meditation. The current modern lifestyle has ruined people's health.
Listen... you can get your teeth done in Europe. And the whole thing with the flights and stay included will cost you so much less than just dental work in the US.
Also try coconut oil pulling.
I would love to have this gentleman as my Dentist.
Don’t crown your teeth...just get veneers......which cost 20k or more.... regular people just don’t have that kind of money laying around.
Not even close. Our cost for veneers and crowns are the same.
Most of the time veneers are actually cheaper
Veneers for me aren’t covered but 3/4 crowns are
I have crowns in my front teeth, I'm not satisfied and can't even smile, can this be replaced with veneers ?
In Turkey they cost £4k
This is my FIRST TIME seeing your VIDEO and I am so impressed with you Doctor O. Young energetic handsome and love for your profession.....wow
A good dentist can be a life saver.
I just wish you would mention ur prices when talking about all of this I would really like to get my top teeth fixed but I know it’s gonna be expensive
I’m 23 dealing with horrible teeth because my dentist crowned all my teeth at a young age and I haven’t been again since I was 15 due to family issues growing up mainly but now I’m terrified of what my consultation would look like honestly I wish I could find someone as knowledgeable as you in my area.

That would be awesome. Looking forward to it.
Hey there! I already have a crown done, but I would like to know your opinion... I broke off half of the bottom of my tooth located next to my main two front teeth. My dentist told me the reason I needed the crown wasn’t because of the break at the bottom, rather I also had a slight fracture towards the top of the tooth as well . Was he correct?
I wish I would’ve known this along time ago and done more research before I went to the dentist I went to. I had of chipped front tooth and immediately they suggested a crown shaved it down and crowned it as they were examining my mouth I had a fractured tooth in the back they shaved that one down and put a crown they also drilled out silver filling and replaced it with a white to match the rest of my teeth and doing all this they nicked me a few times and I didn’t feel the pain but did after the numbness wore off. I’m still very young and so sad that I don’t have my two valuable teeth anymore they are both super sensitive to even just air it angers me and I am disappointed… your information is good to know thank you.
I'm very sad to hear that, which dental did you go to?
same thing just happened to my back molar teeth /:
Hey I'm going through the same thing and literally going through depression rn. How did you deal with it? How are your crowns now
@@ritwikadas8210hello ..... how are your crowns now ??
Are they sensitive... do you still feel any pain ??
Now here's a dentist that goes far and beyond to research, study and give his patients the best solution!...Should be more dentist like you...God bless and much prosperity!
You're Amazing! Thank you 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I got crowns on my peg laterals and I love them!
All your videos are amazing.......people don't realize how important a professional cleaning is to tooth and gum health...do a video on that subject if you can.....
is there any update 2019 of this patient?
I enjoy your videos. When I can I plan on making an appointment. Your facility looks like one that is fun and inviting especially now with the Rave going on in the background lol
Missing canine tooth, doc wants to crown two front teeth and one back tooth to build bridge. Can’t do implant without major orthodontic work to deal with existing roots. You recommend crowning front teeth in this scenario?
Nobody can give you good advice without seeing your entire case in person. That said, it would really suck to drill down 3 healthy teeth just to serve as abutments for the bridge. If you've got the money, you should try to do it the right way. Get limited braces just to upright the roots to make room for the implant. They can even put a fake tooth in that spot in the mean time, bonded to a bracket.
I agree with this, after I learned a very expensive lesson! In 2002, I had my 10 front teeth crowned. Otherwise healthy teeth, but severe tetracycline staining (dull grey, lifeless looking teeth). I initially wanted veneers, my dentist told me it's too hard to cover that dark of staining without porcelain crowns. I ended up choosing the Captek, a gold crown with porcelain bonded to the front. In just 3 short years, my Canine #11 just broke off at the gumline like a piece of wet chalk. A root canal was attempted, and it was so decayed that the only solution was am implant. Since I was already paying for a total of 14 crowns...on an installment loan, I had to decline. A flipper was the temporary solution. Then, every single year until 2015, one by one, even after 6 month check ups and x-rays, they kept breaking off, they had all become brittle and decayed "under" the crown. So, new partial denture in 2007, another new partial in 2008 due to more missing teeth, and the cycle went on until I eventually lost every single crown ever put on. And the real tooth underneath was lost as well, including two that had root canals and were murder to get all the root fragments out.
My partial dentures still look 100% better than my real teeth did back then with all the tetracycline, but I surely went the long and expensive way around. Implants financially were out of the question. Bridges? I have way too many missing teeth now for that. Maybe someday, an all-on-four type implant denture.
In talking about my problem, I found out that about 6 people that I know well...also ended up losing their teeth completely after aggressive crowning that was initially sought out as a cosmetic fix for unsightly teeth. I never had any dental insurance at all, so this was all out of pocket, my MasterCard was my dental insurance. Great videos here!
This is absolutely horrible! I’m sorry you hd to go through that
Mann these so called dentists r fd up. All they care about is getting paid as much as possible & getting u out of their office as quick as possible. I been in pain and supposed to have gotten an extraction for over a year now and My insurance keeps referring me to places that either claim they recently stopped doing extractions for ppl over 21 years old or they tryna over charge me WHEN my insurance says they cover it. I been getting this feeling like all these places r tryna get money out of the customers pocket of the insurance is not paying the price that they demanding & I got a feeling they r trying to overcharge the insurance companies. 1 dentist tried to charge me 185 for an extraction and at the same time told me they were not taking my insurance anymore because they were being audited by my insurance company. Trust was a red flag and made me not trust them especially since my insurance said they were not supposed to charge me out of pocket. I be asking myself: why does a person go thru what all the things they have to go thru to become a dentist, teacher, firefighter, etc.., if they don’t even have a passion for that career. If all u wanted to do was have a get rich quick scheme u should choose a field that doesn’t jeopardize ppls livelihoods & well-being
The lesson is to not rush into things. Read some books by dentists and watch some videos before making a decision.
This is definitely making me rethink things. My dentist wants to do crowns on my four front teeth and the two canines. The reason for the front is because I’ve had the fillings redone a number of times and he says there is not much tooth to work with and the existing fillings are leaking. There is absolutely no reason to crown the canine teeth. The dentist prior to him suggested a bridge on the front. I’ve been in and out of dentist chairs since the age of 17 when I saved money and took myself to the dentist. I’d like to keep as many of my teeth as possible. I’m concerned.

If you can keep the teeth thar you were born with do just that.
So what happened?
Do you have videos on what veneers vs crown looks like and what it takes in surgery?
Dr. O. I enjoyed watching this video and your expertise. I slightly chipped my left front tooth. It is crooked and slightly overlaps my front right tooth. Braces from 9 yrs old to 18 and still crooked; 56yrs old now. Due to grinding my teeth and tmj, I caught my bottom teeth on that front left and now has a horizontal crack line below the nerve. The nerve is alive and well. Just got back from the endodontist, nice guy, recommending a pro active root canal and then back to my dentist to do a crown. Your thoughts? I appreciate your advice and expertise. Much gratitude. 🙏
I am a dental student and this video was very helpful for my clinical perspective
This dentist knows his stuff,very informative!
This sounds like a video for Dentists! In my experience, if I go into a Dentist and tell them I don’t want a crown they will tell me what they are going to do or I can go to another Dentist. I understand what you are explaining, but being the patient we don’t tell them what we want.
I wish every dentist will be honest like this guy. I am sure I have been overcharged many times. Where is his practice located?
i crowned mine because i never took good care of my teeth and they were always yellow and i wanted a good smile.
How are they now?
Awww man I wished I had heard this video before I had my crown process started. I really did not want the crown. I have a temp crown and have not gone back to get the permanent crown because I really don't want it😢😢.
Nice video!
Thanks for watching. I am sure you will be just fine.
So awesome I love dentistry, wish I would have went to school for it a long time ago.
