What could be the cause of a tooth root appearing translucent?

Monday, October 26th, 2009
Q.
I have has an abcess beneath one of my teeth. My dentist ended up giving me root canal treatment and filling. This flared up again and again several times without being sucessfully resolved. Therefore he referred me to a root canal specialst. The specialist has taken an xray of the tooth, and the root appears completely translucent, almost as if it is not there. It only has a very faint outline. He said there also seems to be some debris in the root. He is not sure why this is, and I am due to go back on a weeks time. My question is why would a root appear on xray to be translucent. Has the root completely perished? If so, can that occur from an abcess, or would it be a result of too much/frequent work my dentist has performed. COuld this have caused the root to shatter/perish?

Is an implant required after original tooth is removed?

Monday, October 26th, 2009
Q.
My upper back tooth had to be removed because it was cracked. My dentist and oral surgeon are recommending an implant. The reason is not for cosmetic purposes because it can’t be seen. The oral surgeon said an implant was necessary because the tooth below it would grow taller. But I still don’t understand the problem with that?? And I do have a tooth next to it with a large surface for chewing. I just had it pulled on October 16 so I don’t know what the comfort level will eventually be without an implant. My question is how important is it to have an implant on a tooth so far back and out of sight?

A.
The problem is function and st… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
