Please attach clear photographs of the effected area. It could be due to delay in crown placement. Because after root canal, tooth structure becomes weak and somewhat reduced due to root canal procedure. So it's better to go for crown.
It's better to consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options.
Warm saline water rinses two to three times a day, use mouthwash.
