I've had two adjacent lower molars crowned using CEREC (the machine
was the 3D model, the latest model when I had the treatment done).
The first crown was of a molar that was complete, but in the second,
part of the tooth had broken off, so the dentist didn't bother taking

I live in Central Texas with my girlfriend and she has very, very weak
teeth.. She brushes and flosses more than i do but her teeth just
always seem to decay. She doesn't do drugs, she eats healthy and has

sides. I see that sealants are usually used on the top surfaces. Are
they not suitable for the sides - or is there anything that could seal

My dental office seems to practice good hygiene, everyone uses gloves, masks,
etc. etc.  However when my dentist is working on my teeth his gloves get messy
