My last root canal and crown took 3 visits in total...had to first get a temporary crown. The amount of work done to this patient in one visit doesn’t ring true.

I had a crown replaced earlier this year. There was some decay under the crown, so the crown had to be removed to get to the decay. After filling the cavity, the crown was replaced in about 45 minutes. The dentist scanned the tooth with the new filling and fabricated a crown onsite. It is hard to fathom how more than 1 tooth could be done in a day.

It has ben quite awhile since I've had a root canal, but I would question crowning a root canal on the same day. The last time I had a root canal, the endodontist put a temporary filling in and had me return a few weeks later to check for an infection. If everything was cool, I released to the dentist for the crown..
