If there is retention value, root canal treatment is needed to control pulp and apical periodontal inflammation or prevent apical periodontal inflammation, and then use preformed crowns to repair the tooth defects. If there is no retention value, the tooth should be extracted and a gap retainer should be made to ensure the eruption space for the inherited permanent teeth.
2. The affected tooth is a permanent tooth: the existence of permanent teeth helps to maintain the height of the alveolar bone. If the tooth has preservation value, after perfect root canal treatment of the affected tooth, full crown or core crown can be chosen to repair the tooth defect and restore the shape and function of the tooth. If the tooth cannot be preserved, it can be extracted and restored with a dental implant.
