Hi, I am suffering from toothache on my front teeth and I have done root canal in my two front teeth and I put the permanent cap on that tooth now I have a pain in the next teeth of the root canal performed tooth and I consult with doctor he says that you have to be done root canal treatment in these teeth also and you don't need to put a teeth cap on it. But my doubt is there any need to put a tooth cap after root canal treatment done? Please advise me.
