Gold crowns

Can your gold crown be saved and reused after being removed to repair tooth?

You need to ask the dentist this question.

A gold cap is very thin, so the dentist may not be able to reuse it.  It also depends on where he needs to drill to repair the tooth.

Personally, I couldn't wait to get rid of my god cap.  I have a lovely Cerec cap that matches the colour or the rest of my teeth.
