A root canal treatment is done when there is nerve involvement from a defect, either a tooth fracture, a deep dental cavity, or a tooth infection. In these scenarios, the tooth becomes very weak, and by doing a root canal treatment, which is probably the last method in saving a natural tooth, we can sustain the tooth and save the tooth, but the tooth is still weaker. A cap protects the tooth 360°. It's placed over a natural tooth after a root canal treatment. It does not let irritants or a foreign body come in direct contact with the tooth and cause secondary problems, secondary decay, or secondary infections. It gives good protection to the tooth. You can bite comfortably and save the tooth. The longevity of the treatment and success of the treatment have improved. Now, it's always recommended to go for a cap after a root canal treatment, especially in the back tooth region, where the biting loads are higher. For a front tooth, if the damage is not too much, maybe for some time we can go without the cap. But after a root canal treatment, the tooth tends to change its colour a bit, and whenever that happens, when the tooth becomes brittle, it's always better to cover it with a tooth cap and give it extra protection. #doctorscircle #rootcanaltreatment #rootcanal #dentalcrowns #toothcap #toothpainrelief #saveyourtooth #dentalcare #dentistexplains #toothinfection #cavitytreatment #endodontics #oralhealth #dentalawareness #smilecare #toothdecay #dentalclinic #healthyteeth #dentaltips #CrownAfterRootCanal #toothprotection
