Nancy, a crown should be no problem. Even a root canal is alright to get done post rads. OC patients need to use caution for extractions. They should do the Marx Protocol of 20 HBO dives prior and 10 HBO after.

Im very glad to see you are being careful and making sure its not going to become a problem later.

Good luck smile
