Your dentist has possibly recommended crowns because you have a defective filling, or you have recently had root canal treatment or you may have a crack in the crown of your tooth Either way it is best to avoid hard foods and especially hard nuts in your diet.
A crown is made for a tooth when it is weak for some reason. The weakness is often from large, previous dental treatment or may also be as the result of root canal treatment. In any case be gentle with the tooth until the crown can be finalized.
