A member asked:
My front tooth undergone a root canal instead of putting a crown after the treatment, my dentist put a permanent filling. is it the same with crown?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No better: actually what you had is better than crown crown is preserved to a tooth that lost some of the surface so instead of removing it the crown will save ir by replacing the lost surface you are good good luck
