Endodontics FAQs
Why do I need my root filled tooth crowned?
Q.
I have been told that I need a crown after having my tooth root filled. Why is this?
A.
Your tooth is more likely to suffer from a fracture than a tooth which has not been root filled. The reason for this is that a lot of the internal supporting dentine has been removed to allow the root filling to be placed. Putting a crown on your tooth is one way for your dentist to protect the tooth from fracture.
