To anybody,
I could not find any evidenced-based information regarding repair of full gold crowns that have had to have RCT through the occlusal surface (4-complete walls). The crown has nice margins and no other discernable pathology.
I have spoken with professors who cannot agree on placing amalgam, composite, or replacing the crown. I can see that optimally, the crown should be replaced, but patient wishes for repair rather than replacement.
Anybody have experience with this or know of literature that investigated it?
