MY QUESTION TO YOU SIR IS HOW LONG SHOULD I GIVE IT TO SETTLE BEFORE I SHOULD BE WORRIED? many thanks this is a great service kind regd
A. The truth of the matter is you cannot be sure it will settle as not all root canal treatments are a success. i can only guess that it was a difficult procedure as it took so many appointments to do it.
root canals can give symptoms for a yr post treatment and it is their severity that determines whether you give it time or take further action
