Had retreatment on root canal done several years ago on a very back upper molar.  The endo made a small hole in the crown and performed the retreat over two visits and put a temp filling on.  Made an appointment with my regular dentist after the retreat for 2 weeks down the road.  (Currently out of my home area for work)  Fast forward 1 week and the crown broke in 2 and half of it came out.  Is there a rush or a concern that I should have to cause me to return home tomorrow rather then a week down the road to get a permanent restoration?  My dentist already stated he would warranty the crown prior to me getting the retreat as it is only 3 year old root canal he did.Thanks
Delaying a crown can provide an appropriate alternative in some situations. At other times, it might make the absolute worst choice. For this reason, you should never choose this option without the advice and concurring opinion of your dentist. In the case where a relatively serviceable, although less than ideal, filling already exists, postponing a crown may make a reasonable approach.
