Why do we need a crown/cap after a ROOT CANAL TREATMENT?
- last year
1. Tooth is already badly damaged because of the carious lesion
2. Tooth becomes brittle as the blood supply to the tooth is cut off
3. Chances of reinfection becomes less
Thus making it very vulnerable to breakdown. And thus loosing the entire tooth.
So, always get a crown over the root canal treated tooth.
