Dear Dr I had the first part of a root canal done on one of my molars in September 2006. At the time I was living in the US and had to pay for everything so I stopped short of getting the crown done. I now live in the UK and want to get a crown put on as the stub (not sure what the official name of whats left is) just looks unsightly. Its sort of yellowed out and the top has some sort of brown colouring that wont come off. There is no pain though. If I go to the dentist can they just make another crown for me and put it on? Or is there some sort of lengthy process associated?
