    Is it more sharper than normal tooth, in that case people around you needs to be more careful :)

    Are you talking about a dental implant?

    Jarodboy, a mild exageration from myself, its not a complete implant, but a cap or crown, the rest of the tooth was taken right down for it to be cemented in place.

    tradeepak, unfortunately i have no camera to use, but its a back tooth, my first that ever needed that type of work.

    MissTips, its silver in colour, im not sure if its that same silver amalgam that they do ordinary fillings with or maybe something different.

    Jarodboy, thank you, i will take good care of it and have altered my diet a little and cut down on sugar. :)
