Teeth Quest?!

Teeth Quest?

Reader, i had a terrible accident in my front tooth. The tooth has been awhile now and is already a little fractured and turned gray. Over this summer, i plan to see the dentist to check up what he can do. Dentist visits are expensive. So it took me awhile to save money to fix my teeth all at once with braces and all that necessary.. Also, next to the death tooth is a tooth that needs filling. I have to admit i fear the dentist, cos i live in this poor country in which people more rough in business. Anyways, i read much about tooth canal, implant, crowning, and veneer. But i have no clue what they refer to. I would greatly appreciate your explanation and their process. Whats the pain i got to endure? Please be descriptive. Thank you very much.

I've had a root canal, that's were they "kill" the nerve to the tooth, shave it down to a nub and place a veneer over it. An implant is for when the tooth is extracted and they place a fake tooth in it's place, place it into the gums. A crown is for when a filling will not be do, they shave the tooth and place like a "shell" of a tooth over the existing tooth. A veneer can be used after a root canal or placed over teeth for looks. For either, they shave down the tooth and place it over your existing teeh, like a "cap". There is Lumineers, where they barely shave ur teeth and place the teeth over ur teeth, also for looks. These are all based on my own experiences and I've had all 5. But see a dentist, they can give u the best possible treatment for ur mouth. Good luck!
