When Crown Retreatment Is Needed: The Tooth Restoration Solution Minish

As crowns are used over a long period of time, they may come loose, cause gum inflammation, or become aesthetically unsatisfactory.

In such cases, the usual approach is to remove the crown and place a new one, but if you are worried about damage to the natural tooth, you may want to consider Minish. Let’s take a closer look at how it differs from the conventional method.

When Crown Retreatment Is Needed

• Gum inflammation and pain

If a tiny gap forms between the crown and the gum, food can get trapped and bacteria can multiply, causing inflammation. If your gums are swollen or bleed frequently, crown replacement may be necessary.

2. Crown loosening or fracture

Older crowns can lose adhesion and may fall out or break. In particular, crowns on molars, which are subjected to strong chewing forces, are more likely to wear down or become damaged over time.

3. Discoloration due to gum recession

As time passes and the gums recede, the border between the crown and the natural tooth can become exposed and discolored. In the case of metal-based crowns especially, dark discoloration can be more noticeable.

4. Discomfort when chewing

If the crown is harder than the natural tooth or the height does not fit properly, discomfort may occur when chewing, and it can also place stress on the opposing tooth.
