A cavity can form under a crown: * If a person has bad oral hygiene, a cavity can form in the space between the crown and the real tooth. * If a crown is not well adapted, it can gather up dental plaque and slowly a cavity would form. * If a cavity is left on the tooth before cementing the crown, that cavity will not go away, and will grow slowly.

stainless steel crown (SSC) are performed metal crowns that are used for restoring extremely decayed or damaged milk teeth. They are primarily used on the posterior (or backside) milk teeth. They are never preferred for front milk teeth because of its steel or silvery appearance. Besides this, placing them on the front can irritate the gum and the supporting structure of the permanent teeth.

Answer
It depends of the location of the cavity and how advanced it is. Fixing that type of cavity can range from doing a simple filling, or to redoing a new crown.

The two ways to get a cavity under a crown are:A cavity started between the crown and the tooth at the gum level.There was a cavity left on the tooth when the crown was put (more rare).

Should you pull a first molar if it has a large cavity?

it depends how deep is your cavity .if the cavity is under your gum there are few chance to keep it because to do a root canal or put a crown is necessary remove all cavity and is contraindicated if your cavity is under your gum or close to the root. If the cavity is too big, sometimes there is nothing that can be done and the tooth has to be extracted. But a first molar is a big tooth that is important for chewing. If you lose it, it will affect the other teeth. Therefore if there is anyway to repair the cavity, by either a filling or a root canal, it would be the best option.
