Is it always necessary to get a crown after a root canal?

Yes, placing a crown after a root canal is highly necessary, especially for molars and premolars that handle intense chewing forces. When the infected nerve and blood supply are removed during therapy, the remaining tooth structure becomes brittle and highly susceptible to fracturing. A custom Zirconia or E-Max crown seals the tooth, protects it from bacteria, and restores its structural strength for decades.
