- Options for repairing chipped molar: I'm 40, good health, with generally good teeth. I chipped off the distolingual cusp of upper 1st molar, not to the gum line, when I bit something hard. I currently have amalgam fillings in buccal developmental and distolingual grooves, but they are fairly narrow. My dentist wants to place a CEREC crown on it. I've read they last only 5-10 yrs. so I don't like the idea of grinding away a lot of tooth to replace it with much less durable stuff. He did not indicate the tooth was otherwise compromised. I'd like to know if there are other options. E.g. would an onlay of CEREC or some other material allow me to preserve more of the existing tooth? Any kind of bonding? .. Visitor from CO (answer)
