Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / March 2006Root Canal and Crown
How soon after a root canal should I get a crown done? The dentist who is doing my rct says he wants to use composite to fill up the hole first and then do a crown later. What do you all think? Which tooth? Joel Crown Wrote: > How soon after a root canal should I get a crown done? > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > What do you all think -- Joel34 > Which tooth? Left bottom first molar. Just got back from the dentist and it seems one root is heavily calcified. So he filled the hole with composite and will monitor it for a few weeks.

Maybe ........ we have to see an x-ray to determine long-term prognosis (long-term success predictability). Joe -- Joel34 Fine, as long as he grinds the tooth down BIG TIME way out of occlusion. Those molars can split right down the middle after root canal therapy and before crown!
