I have an uneven jaw ridge after 2 molars extracted on same side. Jaw bone ridge is uneven and sharp. I do not want jaw recontouring so want to just replace the front molar to avoid the pain of the denture rubbing on the pointy sharp bone ridge where the back molar was. Can this be done effectively?

This is what caused the metal to be exposed, when the bite has to be adjust in the mouth, this is what happens. Preparations for a full crown coverage either for a single crown or a bridge, need to have at least 1.5 or 2 mm of clearance from the opposing tooth, to avoid this problems, especially...
The material for crowns that will give you greater naturalness is ceramic or porcelain ( is the same material) , B1 it is a perfect natural color but I recommend that you ask for the shape and stratification of the porcelain
The dental crowns can be bigger than thought if the teeth cannot be or are not shaved down enough. The solution could be removing the crowns, shaving the teeth as much as needed, and then having smaller crowns instead.
