I have a new tooth. I got it yesterday afternoon. The very last tooth in the back had a chip on it. It wouldn’t really have mattered except that it made the tooth sensitive and painful. So: enter the new crown. I had to wear a temporary for little over a week before the final crown was ready. I can now say that I have a gold crown. Not that of a king, mind you, but one in my mouth. Oh, I know it won’t look all nice and white, but who’s looking on the inside of my mouth?
My jaw is still sore and the tooth is still sensitive, but I can already notice a definite improvement. I can now chew on the right side without pain. It’s definitely worth its weight…
