Is it true, you can only have a route canal fill on the same tooth once? as I have a double tooth and the back part the filling has come out. My dentist would prefer to remove the double tooth which will leave me with no back support. please can you advice if I have any other options

Should I have my tooth removed or filled?
Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011Could I have surgery to fix a dead tooth even though I’ve had an apicectomy?
Friday, February 18th, 2011Hi there,
I had an apicectomy carried out above one of my front teeth yesterday. I currently have veneers on my front teeth. I want to have implants or new veneers fitted in the near future, how long should I wait before I can have any procedures done?
I personally think that my tooth is fractured inside or something because I have been told by my dentist that the tooth is dead and one of these veneers has discoloured slightly…would an implant be the ideal solution if the tooth is dead or would a veneer still be ok?
Many thanks in advance for your assistance; I just want to have a nice smile!
With Kind Regards,
Should I remove or leave the iodine swab in?
Thursday, February 17th, 2011I recently had an upper molar removed 7 days ago, an iodine swab was put in the socket after it had been cleaned, does the iodine swab come out on its own or does it dissolve? I havent seen it come out yet, should i go back to the dentist?
I am due to have 4 teeth removed for orthodontics, is this excessive?
Friday, February 11th, 2011I have had separate assessments for Invisalign and Incognito lingual braces to correct an overlap of upper front teeth and misalignment of lower front teeth. Both assessments have come back saying that four teeth need to be extracted – one in each of the four ‘corners’ of the mouth – prior to fitting of the appliance in order for it to work. This seems rather drastic and I cannot imagine that the gaps left by the removal of such large teeth will be closed by the realigned teeth, although the orthodontist who did the Incognito assessment has said they there will be no gaps at the end of treatment (which could take up to 22 months). I’ve booked to have the extractions done next wek, but I’m really still not very happy about having perfectly healthly teeth removed for this purpose. Does it sound right that I have to take such drastic action to get the smile that I want? (I’m in my 40s).

Should I get a root canal redone or have the tooth extracted and bridge fitted?
Monday, January 31st, 2011I have four lower front teeth that have to have the root canals redone after 17 years. I am leaning more on having them pulled and a bridge put in. What are your thoughts and are there any concerns I should have? Is this a good decision?

I am still in pain after having a tooth extracted – why is this?
Tuesday, January 11th, 2011 I have had a tooth extracted, and have been in constant pain, my question is I have a cap at the back, is it possible that although the tooth is dead, there could still be a nerve that you can not see ? and if there is can it be operated on without loosing it.
Thanks.
