Feeling old and pretty p'd off. After breaking a tooth they can't fix it and the only feasible option is dentures. Where's my bus pass??

    could an endodonist not help? My other half was in a similar boat and the endodontist in Portsmouth sorted it so she had a white square peg and then her dentist installed a crown on it. http://chrisemeryendodontics.co.uk/root-canal-therapy/

    I have according to my dentist got "tiny teeth". There's not enough of the tooth left to fix the crown to Ben. I have a post in another tooth the other side and that's been solid for 10 years. You can't fix a peg to nothing. Wish I could just weld it up instead :D

    I just thought it might help because she is exactly the same, small teeth and hardly any root left. One peg and one gold crown later and all is well.
