Can an infected unfinished root canal cause fever body aches and other health problem?
Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009After the root canal treatment i was suffering from worst sinuses is the both related?
Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009Q.
Are you familiar with the work of Dr. Price who hypothized that old root canals methastize to form serious immune diseases. See http://www.whale.to/d/meinig.html for a refresher on this doctors beliefs. I have been plagued with bad sinus and for the last three years asthma. The sinus that I have trouble with is in the direct path of this old root canaled tooth. My dentist saw a shadow on an xray film and referred me to an endodontist who drilled through a fairly new cap to perform a retreatment. This all happened as he explained it would, with some pain a little swelling and I had the tooth filled by my regular dentist. A few days later I have come down with the worst sinuses and post nasal drip into my bronchioles causing fatigue and distress at being unable to breathe. In my mind the two are connected. If I follow Dr. Price’s therapy of having the tooth extracted in addition to the bony socket, would I then be a candidate for an implant. How long would I be toothless. It is the tooth right in front next to the largest tooth in the middle . I am vain, but seriously don’t think this tooth is worth all the sinus and asthmna trouble I have had. Please don’t tell me to see an allergist. I was under treatment for two years and only got worse. My diet is varied and I don’t eat a lot of junk food. How would I find a dental surgeon who subscribes to Dr. Price’s theories.

My root post had been broken off is it true that i can have post without talking out the root
Saturday, July 18th, 2009Q.
Hi I have a front tooth crown with a root post fitted that I have had for over 20 years. It has been replaced a few times due to it falling out. Unfortunately last time the crown came out the post had been found to have broken off inside the root. I have been told that the dentist can not remove the post without taking out the root of the tooth, so I had a new crown fitted with only half a post which keeps falling out. I have been told that a bridge is the next step, which I do not want and an implant is too expensive. Is the imformation correct about not being able to take out the post without removing the root. Do I have any other options. Many thanks

My dentist recommends surgery for my jaw i wonder short root tooth will affect the surgery
Thursday, July 16th, 2009Q.
Hi. i’m 25 and have recently been referred to a hospital consultant for suspected TMJ disorder, as i have been experiencing severe jaw pain, neck pain and ear ahce, my dentist recommends surgery because of my complex jaw. i also have a bad underbite of about 1cm and severe crowding of my lower teeth. when i was a teenager i had braces on my upper teeth, but never my lower teeth – they wanted to do jaw surgery but my parents refused. when i was 21 i found out i had shortening of the roots on my top teeth. could you tell me if it is possible to have jaw surgery with braces only on my bottom teeth as i’m sure they will not want to apply a brace to my top teeth? or will the short roots prevent them from doing the surgery at all? Thank you for any help you can give me.

One of my root canal teeth cracked due to hard bite so should i go for dental crowns advice
Wednesday, July 15th, 2009Q.
Hi, I had root canal treatment on a molar tooth a year ago and a subsequent infection which settled down with antibiotics. The tooth is cracked and my dentist has suggested I now have it crowned as this is likely to prolong the life of the tooth. However, I have noticed that the tooth sometimes feels slightly uncomfortable to hard pressure (ie certain foods) when I am eating although I’m not sure why this might be as the tooth is no longer live. I have been told previously that my bite on that side is rather hard which is why the tooth cracked in the first place. I was wondering if you could advise me what the likely explanation for this is and if it is safe to have it crowned? If I mention this when I go for the crown is it likely that my dentist will x ray the tooth first to see if there is any infection present? Also in your expert opinion, assuming the tooth is suitable to be crowned, is that the best treatment for it to preserve the tooth? Many thanks in advance for your advice.
