Small decay under a crown/at the margin. Treatment options?

Its a bit unclear as to how long you went with a temporary on your tooth between impression and seating of crown...Congratulations on having a baby and alas life happens as we journey...At any rate I will guess 9 to 10 months max that you had to wear temp..and I gather decay occurred on said tooth during this time? As I do not know enough other than what you say...My inclination... if decay is present would be to remake the crown...Simple fix to prevent a bigger problem later.....thanks.

Hi:Depending on the size and the location of the decay this may or may not be ok.  Of course it is always best to have a crown that is completely sealed without any filling or decay.Best,Dr. Maddahi

Firstly congrats Darien and as per your description I think your dentist is right because during the pregnancy women suffer from many hormonal changes which leads to gum disease as well and don't worry decay will be completely cleaned.

I agree with Kathy. It is difficult to give a specific answer to your question without more information. Remaking the crown is really the best answer.
