Pulp sensibility cold testing with 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (TFE) on teeth with FCR was less accurate than on teeth without full-coverage crowns. However, the use of TFE cold testing is still a relevant and reliable diagnostic tool, particularly for teeth with a pulpal diagnosis of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Clinicians should routinely carry out cold pulp sensibility testing on teeth when making a pulpal diagnosis.
