My bottom tooth broke this weekend - it is in half - it is one of the front bottoms - I am unsure what the dentist will do - I certainly don't want him to pull it - that would leave a gap! What options do I have?

If the root is good, you can get an onlay, which is a form fitted piece of porcelain cemented in the broken area which literally gives you back your tooth structure! They are a bit expensive but avoid the eventual damage to root. And they should last 30+years with good care and literally can save the tooth for life.

Well....the Dentist Say Too Much Decay In The Remaining Tooth - So It Would Need Pulling. I Have 2 More On The Side To The Gum And He Said A Bridge Would Cost Thousands - But I Could Do A Partial On The Bottom After Those 3 Are Out. Are Bottom Partials More Comfortable Than A Top?

Thats a shame you can't save the tooth. Maybe implants would be better than a bridge but cost might be a factor.

How much would a 3 tooth bridge cost? That would be a good option and perhaps he can help with a financing plan. Also, go for a second opinion if you can and maybe, just maybe another dentist will give you a better price for the bridge and work the financing with you.

good luck.

I just had a 3 tooth bridge done last week. It cost me $2,000. Hope this helps.

I will have to get a partial. That is high enough - I can't afford a bridge.
