cracked root-canaled tooth

Hello everyone I have a crack on the cheek side of a molar which has had a root canal 4 years ago. It also has a large filling. Is crowing this tooth an option or is extraction the only solution? Thank you for your advice much appreciated.

Clinical judgement of reversible pulpit is is based on throbbing pain evoked by cold stimulus.which is highly unreliable. Many cold sensitivity is caused by muscle dysfunction. The reliable diagnosis of irreversible pulpit is which requires Endodontic intervention is electric pulp test. If there is no decay dental pain is probably non-odontogenous.if in doubt seeing an Orofacial pain specialist is advised.
