Does a root canal treatment need maintenance?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Once the root canal is done the tooth should have a crown placed. After that brush floss and get regular check ups and it will give you years of service.

YES: If you have had a root canal you should assure that your dentist continues to monitor the tooth. Additionally, you may need a crown on that tooth.
