How does a dentist determine whether to pull teeth or place a crown?
It largely has to do with whether or not the tooth in question is salvageable. If there is too much decay/damage/infection and there is not enough left of the healthy tooth in which to place a crown, they will usually opt to pull the tooth.
Reply:It depends on whether his kid needs to go to college or if he needs to get money for his new boat or summer home.
Reply:It really depends on how badly the tooth is broken down. If it slightly fractured then she can place a crown. But if most surfaces of the tooth are broken down, the next step in saving the tooth is a root canal, then a crown.

THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION DEPENDS A LOT ON THE PATIENTS DESIRES AND THE CLINICAL CIRCUMSTANCES AT HAND.


SOME PEOPLE WOULD RATHER EXTRACT RATHER THAN SPEND THE $ TO SAVE A TOOTH.





AT OTHER TIMES CLINICAL CONDITIONS ARE SUCH THAT THERE IS NO WAY THAT A CROWN CAN BE SUCCESSFUL.


IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE CASE AT HAND.
