No time duration. It totally depends how much tooth structure was left before treatment. How strong your teeth is now after treatment. How much you avoid hard food stuff.

Completely depends on preoperative condition of your tooth.
If crown structure is excessively damaged then you required immediate crown.
if not then you can wait for some days.

there is no guarantee as there are always chances of re infection if u do not maintain and the worst thing can happen is your tooth might fracture anytime. u have to understand that a rct just cleans up your infection of tooth but it cannot give the strength of tooth back like original because it was damaged by caries or infection. so to get external barrier or strenght a cap or crown is always advised

While a root canal removes the infected pulp and nerve, leaving the tooth without a protective crown may make it susceptible to fractures or additional decay.

A dental crown is always a must after a root canal procedure. The longevity of dental crown depends upon the structural quality of tooth left after the root canal procedure. If the structural quality of tooth is not good, then then you should immediately get the dental crown on that particular tooth.

 It is recommended to have a dental crown fixed on any root canal treated Tooth as soon as possible. If there is any pain or discomfort after the root canal treatment then we should wait for at least a week and after checking the tooth with xray, A dental crown should be fixed. If at all there is no pain in the tooth, then the dental crown should be fixed within a span of 3 to 5 days.

Depends on the prognosis of that tooth. It is most commonly advised to get crown post root canal but not in every case

it depends on the structure of tooth left after rct, so better get it done as earlier as possible so that maximum tooth structure can be saved. usually when 3 to 4 walls are intact, prognosis is better, and we can avoid crown. also in front teeth we can avoid crowns. 
so the doctor will evalaute clinically and make the right decision

My son accidentally swallows a bipilac tablet

Male | 13

If your little boy has swallowed a Bipilac tablet by mistake, don't panic. The most frequent symptoms of ingestion are upset stomach and perhaps some vomiting or diarrhea. The reason for this is that the stomach doesn’t like the pill. To make him feel better, make sure he drinks plenty of water and keep an eye on him constantly. It’s important to observe any strange behavior in your child and if there is any, call your local poison control centre at once.
