Emergency Evaluation

Temporary or Permanent Restoration
Temporary filling placed immediately if multivisit. Final restoration (crown or large filling) completed after root canal to protect tooth long-term.
Follow-up and Crown Placement
Check healing at follow-up. Crown placement critical for back teeth to prevent fracture. Your tooth functions normally for decades with proper care.
