Front four teeth's filled

2017-06-22 10:36:19
I had my front four upper teeth's filled in Dec'16, one of the filling came out in Jan'17 and I consulted another doctor, she drilled more and made me refilled all four with cosmetic dental. Now I want to know in future can these fillings be redone or need to be crowned and how long will these filling last.

Refilling can be done in future.  The quality of the filling and it's use will will determine its life. If the tooth structure is compromised than veneers,  crowns etc can be planned. Do meet a dentist as early as possible when a tooth filling is out or needs repair.

Doc must have drilled of only there was a need for it. They can be refilled , veneered or capped.

These are the cosmetic fillings which don't last a lifetime ... with proper precautions they can continue for a very long time .. they can be redone in near future also .. crowning not required unless the tooth structure is compromised
