You have not forgotten you have ignored totally to save the RCT done tooth. All the RCT done tooth will eventually crumble and break into pieces if it is not capped within the shortest time frame. See now what happened you have wasted your money and tooth. The moral is don't ever ignore your doctors advice. It's always for your own good.
