Well, I've been to the dentist. I'll have to readjust my metalurgical content (4.7% tin) to include a small percentage of gold, now, thanks to my crown.
Damage was too much for a filling. Plus I'm a bit short back there.
It was either gold or "semiprecious" and I went with the gold: The gold alloy they use matches the hardness of enamel, and being mostly gold, it's fairly unreactive. Think my gums and what's left of the tooth have had enough unwanted chemical reactions back there.
Plus it made a good excuse to post a pic of The Cheat.
