In this video, Dr. Dustin explains how decay can occur underneath a dental crown. He begins by emphasizing that crowns are designed to protect teeth, but if a crown becomes loose or is poorly fitted, bacteria can infiltrate and cause significant damage. A major concern is that this decay often occurs without any pain or sensitivity, making it hard to detect on your own.
Even looking in a mirror may not reveal any cavities. Dr. Dustin highlights the importance of catching decay early, as a small cavity can be easily managed by replacing the crown. However, a larger cavity might lead to severe pain, necessitate a root canal, or even make the tooth non-restorable, requiring extraction. Therefore, regular dental check-ups are crucial for ensuring your crowns are in good condition and preventing serious issues."
