Hi....If cap is not given there are chances the tooth might fracture. Get an x ray done to know the condition of tooth and then proceed with a cap. If the tooth is infected re rct can be done. Visit nearby dentist for proper examination.

You should go for capping of rct tooth. Rct again is not necessary, only capping is necessary.
