[QUOTE="Dr M, post: 138044, member: 8928"] A filling is not as strong as your normal tooth. Or even a crown. The larger the filling becomes, the weaker it also becomes. Private dentists do often replace large fillings with crowns, since the tooth can be protected in a more permanent manner. Dental Colleges don't, since the costs associated with making a crown for every patient, is too high. [/QUOTE]
