I have had horrible teeth my entire life. My mom never took me to the dentist unless I had pain and I pretty much grew up not caring much for my teeth. For the past 10 years though I brush and floss and try to see the dentist as much as I can possibly handle. Anyway, I went to the dentist in January and was told I needed one of my heavily filled teeth crowned as there was a crack. Went ahead and did that and a root scaling cleaning. Of course a month after that my tooth on the other side that was heavily filled broke. Went to dentist yesterday and she said we can probably just crown it but it may need a root canal. I also had a chipped front tooth they fixed. Then she said a lot of my front teeth have cavities on the back side and I may need to crown them. Great thanks. She also said well you know so many of these teeth are heavily filled and over time will crack. So now what? I am very upset. I keep thinking about my future? How can anyone have this many crowned teeth? Am i destined for dentures? I have 5 crowns already 3 of those were root canales and crowned. I feel.like all my molars are going g to have to be crowned. Is this even feasible? Can they last, will I be able to chew well. I cant stand the anxiety this is all causing me. Help.
