Questions & Answers

two questions: 1. Crown Tooth #4, and 5 or put composite if cost were no option? xrays attached .my dentist made the reccomendation below. 2. cerec or lab ?

You will need to make a decision. The crowns will be made of lithium disilicate (all porcelain); no metal (aka porcelain fused to metal). Due to fact that these are large fillings, we have already lost a good deal of tooth from 20 years ago. Replacing with a filling is a good option. It is conservative, but it will break down in future. The future is unknown when it comes to timing, will it last a long time or just a few years? A crown is another good option. There will be no immediate need

Your dentist provided an excellent statement of your situation. The fact that he included all reasonable options and is reassuring you that there is no immediate need makes me wonder why you are asking for advise from us, people you have never met and are not likely to meet.
Maybe a few minutes with one of your dental team members, such as the patient coordinator, would answer your questions more appropriately.
