A place where you can rant to your heart's content.
Rules :
- Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
- Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
- Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

I think in general it’s a good idea to leave as much of the original substance as possible (if it is in good condition). You can remove it later on but if you do it now it’s gone forever. And it’s much more work and surely hurts more to get implants. Also it should be more expensive.
I have 22 crowns and all molars are partly crowned. So if I need new crowns in a decade or two there is a little bit of material left to work with.
I’d go with the recommendation of my local dentist. And also keep in mind that if you travel to another country, you may have to travel back to get a free repair. My dad did this to save money and the dentists in our country could basically not help him very much since they used parts and materials which our dentists did not have. (But I’m also sure they had a lack of motivation)
