Do I need further treatment on my root filled tooth?

After the root canal treatment is completed you will need to return to your referring dentist so any temporary filling can be replaced with a permanent restoration. This will involve additional costs to you and is in addition to the cost of the root canal filling. The restoration commonly used on a root treated tooth is a crown that encases the remaining tooth structure and reduces the risk of tooth fracture.
