Should I get a Veneer or crown?  

answers 0:Well, when I was 8 I fell and broke a little more than half of my front tooth. It has been a large "tooth colored" filling since 1996. Now I want something new, because I'm older and I want a full "new" tooth. So, is a veneer or crown better? Which will look more realistic? Will you be able to see the metal inside the crown? Are veneers weaker than crowns?answers 1:A crown should workanswers 2:You will have to get a crown, because part of your tooth is missing. I recently got a new crown and you can't tell the difference at all. Looks just like a normal tooth. Best to ask your dentist for advice.answers 3:FYI,a veneer is only a porcelain shell bonded to a strong tooth underneath. If you have the majority of the tooth as a filling then it's not strong enough for years of service.A CROWN IS MORE APPROPRIATE HERE.An excellent choice is ! a CAPTEK crown where there will NEVER be a visible metal margin beneath/SEE THE LINK BELOW...answers 4:A veneer is a thin porcelain cover that fits over the front of your natural tooth. It is considered to be a cosmetic treatment and looks very realistic. A veneer will last as long as a crown.A crown may be your best bet if your natural is broken. A crown requires your natural tooth to be shaved down so that the crown can cover your entire tooth. The crown will look realistic especially if you have a completely porcelain crown placed. A porcelain crown will simulate the translucency of your natural tooth.Your dentist will match the colour and shape to your surrounding teeth. If you have a unique tooth colour, you can always go to the dental lab and they can do a custom shade match for you. Porcelain coated metal crowns are generally only used on back teeth.Both crowns and veneers will last you at least 10 years, usually longer.
