hello again. recently i had my post from one of my broken teeth removed. the remainder of this tooth is small and they offered me extraction (for implants which was the doctor’s choice, not covered by insurance) or endodontic re-treatment for a dental veneer (i think, my preferred choice which i did because it’s cheaper with the insurance coverage).

the issue is this tooth looks like an L from its sides, meaning it has a very narrow segment in the front and im afraid it might break and then i would have no choice but to extract it. their list of dos and don’ts is kinda vague and the only solid piece i got from it was to eat nothing for 2 hours. also i think the temporary filling is too little but i don’t know about that.

if there are any dentist hexbears or someone who has experience with this it would be appreciated.

EDIT: seems like a little bit of the temporary filling has washed away. is that a problem?
