Can you get an implant years after extraction?
Usually, yes. It depends on how much your bone changes after the extraction. But even with significant reduction in bone (which may or may not occur), there is often a way to increase lost bone by grafting to ready the site for the implant or to use alternative techniques like bone compaction without grafting.

What hurts more tooth extraction or root canal?
Both extraction and root canal should not hurt during treatment, and both generally hurt minimally post treatment. Also, if you have slight pain it is always really easily controlled by over-the-counter pain medication. Since you are young, it is better in the long term to save teeth because they affect the way you look, talk, and eat. Choose to do a root canal treatment to save your teeth and remember you can always change your mind, but try to save your teeth for the long term! READ MORE
