Crown Removal and Replacement

I had my normal 6 month appointment last week where I found out that
my previous dentist (the past 5 years) had sold the practice to a new
dentist. He has installed all the new diagnostic tools that the
previous dentist did not have.

I had gone for 3 years with no work needed and now the new dentist
says I need to have my 2 crowns on rear molars replaced due to decay
at the gum line. He showed me all kinds of stuff with his new x-ray
machine and oral cameral (seemed very excited about his toys). I'm
concerned about the procedure and wanted to know what to expect. I
guess the good news is he didn't find anything on other teeth but this
procedure scares me.

I appreciate any feedback.
