How long can a open tooth (root canaled) stay without a crown?

Asked By:max00097 in Keene, NH

My crown on 3 adjacent back molar teeth fell off (it was around 6 months old). Root canal was done on all the three teeth. They are now open (without the crown) for couple months with no pain or discomfort. Typically how soon should one put a new crown back or can keep the tooth open after root canal and filling is completed?
