Q.

Ive a serve phobia of dentist and i have two pretty deep cavities could i have root canal treatment

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009
Q.
Hi Dr, I have a severe phobia of dentists following a bad experience when I was younger. I have two pretty deep cavities one at each side at the back top teeth, I can stick my tounge quite far into one of them and I have extremely bad breath which I’m guessing is a result of these. I have finally found the courage to go to the dentist and will go soon. I am only 25 years old and cannot bear the thought of extraction and would quite happily have root canal and crowns. I’m wondering if there are any instances where root canal cannot be used and extraction is the only option? I really don’t want to have missing teeth at 25, even if it is the back teeth! My confidence is so low, I’m so aware of my breath it’s ruining my life and as i have just graduated, I feel I cannot be a proffessional the way my teeth and breath are at the moment. Kind regards

I have a deep decay in my tooth do i need a root canal

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009
Q.
Hi – I have been advised by my dentist that because of deep decay I need a root canal (last molder). But the tooth in question has no infection, no pain. My dentist now has cleaned the decay and closed the tooth with a provisional filling. In a few weeks I face a root canal treatment in excess of £1000 (incl. crown). My question is: do I really need a root canal? The tooth is calm, and if a precision crown is fitted, would it not seal the tooth effectively to avoid bacteria infecting the pulp? I just want to avoid killing a tooth just because of some decay … Some 20 years ago I had a similar case (I believe) and didn’t opt for the root canal; that tooth is still going strong. What are my options? Does it make sense to ask my dentist to only fit a crown without the underlying root canal treatment? Or am I asking for trouble?

A.
If there is decay under the to… (Click here to read the rest of the answer)
