Is this the same as root can treatment?
I didnt have to have the tooth out. What they did was remove the nerve and drill out a hole
Then they almost drilled away the entire tooth left just a bit at the side packed it with antibioritcs
And built a composite tooth over the top. I waited for 2 weeks. Went back they removed the compisite tooth
Then they cleaned out the hole and put a titanium rod down the hole
They warned me that this part I would feel as they had to make sure the rod didnt touch the jaw bone
It did and I screamed F,,,,,,,, they heard me in the waiting room. They then cemented the rod in place
And built a complete composite tooth again. That was in 2004 Im sure its all different now
I went 3 times once for the check up xrays and planning, Then 2 times for 2hrs in the chair each time@done.
Cost private in 2004 was 800 pounds $1,700 for one tooth Its still in and I have a check up every 12mnths.
