My dentist is recommending veneers, but will crown it if I choose. The tooth was hit in an accident more than 25 yrs ago. It has turned colors slowly over 10 years. No root canal, but it does have a large filling. Which has less pain? Which lasts longer?? Which will be better in the long run? What should I do with the other front tooth?
