Root canal treatment

2018-02-05 14:47:18
I hav done my root canal treatment successfully.... but i did not take a crown and it's just filled.... because the doctor said there is no support for the crown to hold on.. because the tooth is half broken on the side. so doc said I hav to do a back root canal on the same teeth to get a support ... I'm not sure what it is.?? can anyone explain about it.
