New Crown

It has been several weeks now since I started down the path of having one of my broken teeth repaired. Step one: root canal and a temporary filling. Step two: Remove the filling, drill a hole in the tooth for a future metal post, make a dental impression, finish with another temporary filling. Step three: Remove the filling, glue the custom-molded post into the hole in the tooth, make a dental impression. Step four: Glue permanent crown (pictured above) onto post. Step five: Do the whole thing over again for my other broken tooth. This process has taken several weeks and I am pleased with the outcome. I will start the process again in January and hopefully, by February, I will have a full set of working teeth again, save the one that I had extracted and don’t plan to replace.
