My two upper front teeth have been built up a few different times, but one of them keeps breaking little by little. My dentist has told me that I need to get crowns on the upper six teeth, the two upper front teeth and two on each side of them, in order for the color to match.

I'm also worried about sitting through six preps in one visit.
