Considering how many ceramic fillings I have bitten into pieces, I have grown much more respect for my natural teeth. I had to replace one filling with a gold tooth to prevent it bitten into pieces again.
Overall they are amazing in stability. If we could figure out some better way of preserving and repairing them, they should still be the best solution.
- devonkim 6y agoThe crowns on my incisors are substantially stronger and more resistant to drills than the natural teeth they replaced. The issue with most artificial teeth I’m seeing are related to bone loss and inability to rest as securely into the jaw as natural teeth. Even still, it may be better sometimes in a trauma event to have teeth knocked out or broken than to damage the jaw.
