Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / October 2005Crown without root canal
Hi, What would be the need for a crown( not a veneer) on a tooth that has not recieved root canal therapy? If the tooth begins to hurt a year after the crown placement, will the tooth need a root canal at that point? If the tooth does need a root canal, can the crown be saved and replaced? Thank you. If the tooth hurts root canal it`s a must. In some cases th crown can be saved, specially if you refer the patient to an endodontics specialist BUT ti depends of the case. Also you can remove the crown and rebuild the core and use the same crown, but it also depends. The most common procedure is doing everything again. most times you can do rootcanal thru the crown. > If the tooth hurts root canal it`s a must.
