How long does a root canal and crown last?
Hello, I am in the proceure of having a root canal and crown, the root canal part is over. originally the dentist said after the root canal the tooth should be able to last 10 years with a crown. But today the dentist told me, once the crown is on the tooth is so unstable it will only last 5 years. I have had another root cannal with no issues for 15 years and know people with root canals and have had no issues for over 10 years.

Wow that’s crazy I had no idea… I had a root canal and I wasn’t even thinking about the fact that it could be temporary. That’s so scary and upsetting.
