Is my tooth infection spreading?
With both teeth being side by side, the first tooth to cause problems may be the issue. It sounds like a nerve starting to go bad, which can be cleared up by having a root canal or filling, if possible. READ MORE
Can a root canal have prolonged recovery?
It could take some time. If you had the infection, it was eating away at the bone of tooth, and that takes time to heal. With mother nature's process, everyone varies on the healing process; it can happen fast or take up to a year. READ MORE
One of my front teeth just chipped. How will this be fixed?
it can be fixed, but if the chip goes down the nerve of the tooth, a root canal may help better. READ MORE
How successful is an apicoectomy?
You can do apicoectomy to save the Tooth, I advise that first before implant READ MORE
What does endodontic retreatment involve?
Taking out the old root canal material, if possible, just depends on the previous material used (sliver points are hard to remove) then clean out the canals and take new measurements of the each canal and fill with gutta percha. If no infection and if it's infected, clean out the canal, fill with medication, and you would come back in 2-4 weeks while on antibiotic and finally complete RC. READ MORE
I have a cracked tooth. Does this expose me to an infection?
Not immediate infection, but it can be left untreated. you need to consider going to get it filled READ MORE
Is a root canal treatment permanent?
Yes, but it can fail due to a miss or blocked off canal in the tooth. READ MORE
How often should I get my teeth cleaned from a dentist?
Every 6 months is recommended, but if you have a lot of plaque or don't floss every day, then I would do every 4 months depending on your insurance. READ MORE
Endodontists and root canals?
A canal could have been missed or blocked it self completely off, I recommend seeing a Enododontist instead of a general dentist. Just because they specialize in the nerve of teeth READ MORE
What can be the risks involved in an endodontic surgery?
No, just let your dentist know if you are on blood thinners and consult with physician before going. If you take a pre med before dental treatment, you would take it before endo treatment as well. READ MORE
