I have a front tooth that is a crown. I guess there wasn't a whole lot of natural tooth structure left to glue it to, but it was doing OK until I started having to wear a TAP appliance at night to stop my snoring. The torque of the appliance keeps working my crown loose, and I keep having to get it re-cemented about every 6 months... Anyway, the crown is loose again, so I decided to stop wearing the appliance altogether, and just sleep in separate rooms :-(
So my question is this - IF (and it'a big "if") the dentist tells me that she can't recement the crown anymore...that it just won't hold... I know I have two options: A three-tooth crown-bridge combo, OR a dental implant. Which is cheaper, and which is more durable?
