Types of dental crowns and selection methods after root canal treatment

A crown, meaning a royal crown in English, is derived from the word "crown."
A crown-like covering was placed on the upper part of the tooth with what was taken.
It is a name given because of its shape.
As you can see from the expression "to crown"
A crown is not a restoration that fills a tooth that has been removed.
It involves covering the extracted tooth with a prosthetic tooth.

To receive root canal treatment
The amount of tooth extraction becomes very large.
Since only the wall remains of the tooth and the inside is hollowed out
It is not appropriate to place a crown in this condition.
If you just fill the restoration material and pass it over
In everyday life, as the teeth are continuously subjected to pressure
The wall of the tooth gradually collapses.
Eventually, it may reach a point where extraction is necessary.

Therefore, the crown is placed after root canal treatment.
To protect weakened natural teeth
It can be considered the best option.

However, since the materials for the crown are not covered by insurance, avoid unnecessary treatment.
We recommend choosing a dental clinic.
