Can I get a dental crown without a root canal?
Hello - You can get a crown on any tooth with or without a root canal. It depends on the diagnosis of the tooth if it will need a root canal or not. Hope that helps!
What crown is recommended for molar teeth?
I recommend Porcelain fused to metal for posterior teeth. They will look great, but last longer and have less breakage than an all Porcelain crown. Hope this helps.

Yes, they do! You need to be numb in order for the dentist to "prepare" your tooth for the temporary and permanent crowns. Thanks.
Is it necessary to adjust braces every month?
No. Typical braces adjustment intervals are between 6 and 12 weeks. Thanks!

Should you keep your Invisalign in overnight?
Yes! You should wear your Invisalign aligners 20-22 hours each day. Wearing them when you sleep is the easiest way to get those valuable tooth movement hours in.
