Had root canal on front upper tooth 11 years ago. My crown broke and more than half of my actual tooth broke off. Went to dentist today, took x-ray and said best would be to put a post and crown. Right now I have a temporary plastic one. I read on post crowns vs implants and would like input. Im 34 and considering that its my front tooth, which I use to bite, would it be better to go with an implant rather than a post? We also discussed a crown for other front tooth since it has an ugly patch.
