A patient from Upleta had completed root canal treatment on a back tooth and needed it protected before chewing normally again.
Why a crown after a root canal?
A treated tooth can become weaker. A crown prevents cracks, restores chewing strength and returns the tooth to its natural shape — which is why it is recommended after most root canal treatments.
A precise, natural-looking fit
Prosthodontist Dr. Bhumi Mehta prepared the tooth and matched the crown’s shade to the neighbouring teeth, so it blends in rather than standing out.
Back to normal chewing
With the crown fitted, the tooth could take normal chewing forces again, and the visits from Upleta were kept to the minimum the treatment needed.
