Hi guys,
A few years ago I broke one of the corners of a molar and had a filling to fix it, that filling came loose and I then had a medium sized filling placed there again.
The filling wasn't the best as it left the other corner on the same side a little exposed and today the worst happened. That corner broke off, but the filling remains. I now have a molar with no points on one side, and this appears to be to the gum line.
I have horrific dental anxiety, I try my very best to look after my teeth but it just seems I can't get it right.
My question is: Will a filling suffice, will it need to be removed or will a crown be fitted?
Also, I wear a retainer on my bottom teeth due to grinding. Am I ok to wear that until I can get to the dentist?
