    Question:

    Hello
    I have had a molar root canal treated in Nov.2009, and this weekend, that is. on 19 February 2010 is the tooth cracked. I'll see if I can get an emergency appointment with the same dentist in the morning, having made rodbehandlingen. This is where my question: Since the plastic filling in the tooth is pretty big, should I not have been offered a crown on the tooth, because I can read that most gets registered? This allowed the tooth could have been saved, because I expect because of the now withdrawn.

    Sincerely. Anne P

    Answer:

    Dear Anne P

    It is difficult to answer specifically to your question. It is not certain that the tooth would survive longer with a crown on. It will always be assessed individually for each tooth. After a root canal dentist will usually have an observation period of rodbehandlingen approx. ½ years before the coronation of the tooth. So I estimate that your dentist has acted properly.

    Hope you can use my answer.

    Sincerely

    Dentist Joan Olsen
