How many times can you replace a crown? Will the tooth underneath be strong enough? (Photo)

August 25, 2018
Asked By:fd03 in Great Britain, GB

My front four teeth have recently had root canals and all porcelain crowns placed on .Whilst they look better than when the accident happened there’s a few things I would like changing with them.(whitening, gum sculpting and getting rid of the slant they currently have) I am only 25 so have accepted I will need to get my crowns redone a couple of times in my life. My only concern is whether the tooth underneath will be strong enough for this? I really want to avoid implants/bridges.
