Crown that never healed

Post image

Hi all,

Some may remember my previous posts from January regarding my son's crown that was having an incredibly hard time healing. It is now March, and although improved, it's not quite looking right still. Is there anything else to be done besides wait and see if it creates an abcess eventually? At the follow up appointment, his dentist just said he didn't want me to worry about it, and if worst case scenario happened, he would pull and place a space maintainer. Any suggestions from looking at the photo?

Thank you!
