  • A lot of patients find root canals scary, and that's appropriate. But that's partly due to a lack of understanding of the process and what to expect.

    Root canals, or extractions, can SUCK. I’ve had them both, many times. If you can afford, literally afford, to save the tooth, do it with a good endodontist or dentist. If not, prepare for the expense of dentures later in life (or sooner) of dentures. If, like me, you have a condition like Gastroparesis and are prone to vomiting, I sincerely and deeply wish you the best.

    I had a tooth with a very bad infection, nearly killed me. They pushed for me to get a root canal and save the tooth. I would have loved to do so but it’s not like I have $1400 lying around. The tooth extraction saved my life at a fraction of the cost.

    I’d rather catch the cavity early and get a 150 dollar filling instead of a 1900 dollar root canal. I had 3 enamel cavities drilled and filled. Never had a dentin cavity. Regular brushing and flossing as well as dental checkups are very helpful in preventing root canals or extractions. However I’d take a root canal over an extraction anyday.

    I would go with extraction anytime and get the main issue resolved at once. I can deal with rebuild or replacement options later on when I get the money to do it. I'm not saving any tooth that is already damaged. Root canals are not always done properly and you would have to spend more money to address unexpected issues on that same tooth.

Check with your doctor but if you catch a cavity early enough your tooth can remineralize and stop the cavity. Xylitol kills the bad bacteria that cause cavities so it’s a win win. Xylitol has been hidden by many dentists due to its powerful anti cavity and dental decay properties. Xylitol comes from birch trees and corn it’s a alternative natural sugar alcohol.

Post the treatment, I've got an abcess on the tooth next to it, and have been told they may have either treated the wrong tooth or both needed treatment, so now I need another root canal.

The dentist told me wisdom teeth has damaged the lower left one already and root canal has to be done so I went through that procedure. But I feel that was unnecessary and there wasn’t any damage yet because there was no pain I felt. Only sort of pressure when I used to chew first few bites of food. I feel depressed sometimes thinking about it.

      @leighodowd8091 Год назад

      It takes at least 45 minutes on a simple case by an endodontist. If its a difficult tooth it could take over an hour. If a general dentist does it, you're looking at 2 hours of work. Either way, you're paying for their experience, training, and expertise. Then you factor in the other dental staff, all the equipment used, and materials actually used in and on your tooth - that equals $1,000 +

    Root canal should be avoided from my readings as the RC procedure just removes the main infected nerve and blood vessels leaving behind all the tinier branches (which are also necrotic) to rot away, harboring anaerobic bacteria that gets into the blood supply in due course causing serious chronic diseases in susceptible individuals with weaker immune systems.. antibiotics will not help as the RC procedure had cut off the blood supply- tooth connection.

      If you have your teeth pulled a.k.a. Extracted, you're basically left with a empty crevice forever (unless it's a baby tooth) or the dentist have to literally drill into your bone to implant a new tooth, which are way more invasive than just cleaning out the infected nerve tissues and replacing the top area of a teeth with a crown with the other parts of the teeth intact.
