What happens if you dont get that crown? you run the risk of losing the tooth!!!Broken, These pictures are of Non Restorable teeth that could have been saved if the crown had been done, but due to delays, the cracks extended too deep to save and therefore had to be removed and replaced with a more costly option like a bridge or implant. There is no way to predict when a tooth will break, but 90+ % of the time it is while eating bread and over the weekend or holiday or right before that big meeting or appointment!!!
