Should I replace a crown that was placed 15 years ago?
When I was young, I neglected this care, so I received a lot of dental treatments.
I had a lot of cavity treatments, and at that time, they looked a bit like a metallic color, like iron... Is it called amalgam? When I opened my mouth, it was very noticeable, and there were also some issues, so I had them replaced.
But it seems that was the best option at the time.
And then, around the age of 20... I had all of those removed, covered with gold... and received treatment to fill in the areas that needed it with gold.
But... it's been over 15 years now...
I also did a lot of gold plating and filling like in the image below. But...
I'm wondering whether I can continue using these or if I need to replace them.
I think I heard somewhere that gold also needs to be replaced when it gets old.
I'm 고민입니다.
