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!
Yes, of course you can! Prvided the nerve inside the tooth does not have any pre-exlsting condition.
Yes, most of the time this is the case. A root canal is not always needed just because a crown is being down. Usually a root canal is done because of inflammation or infection of the tooth pulp/nerve.
