Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I went for five root canals on front teeth. Which type of caps are advisable single or joined?

Answered by Dr. Purva Jingar

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Yes, caps are advisable but single is best. Joined or bridge has a drawback. If any side of the joined cap is loose or any damage comes, then the whole bridge is removed. In single if one particular tooth or cap has any problem or any damage, then the single cap will be repaired and removed.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
