No limit. The only problem might be that the tooth under the crown may slowly deteriorate and than there will be no useful tooth material left to hold a crown. A good crown can hold over 20 years. It is really depends on the oral hygiene and good genes and a great dentist, how many crowns someone needs and how long they may last.
During dentist visit your dentist may discover that your crown is leaking, no longer seals perfectly, at that point your crown needs to be replaced.
My crown is over 20 years old, good as new, the tooth had no root canal.
How many dental crowns can one person have?
FYI,
every time a tooth is prepared for a new crown a little more is taken away until there is very little tooth left. This can be done with each tooth.
There is normally 32 teeth, 28 if there's no wisdom teeth.
So answer to your question depends on how many teeth you have left
Reply:Hello, back when I specialized in full mouth Crown %26amp; Bridge reconstruction I created a crown for every tooth the patient had and on more than one occasion that meant 28 units....a full mouth minus the wisdom teeth.
Reply:I would assume one could have as many crowns as one has teeth.
Reply:If you have all your teeth, you could have all 32.
