RCT on wisdom teeth or remove it
I have consulted a Dentist today for RCT of my wisdom teeth. The doctor suggested me for removal of my wisdom teeth as it is not possible to put cap after RCT is done and without cap there is no logic for going RCT. Further the doctor says that wisdom teeth is also not much useful for chewing and all so better remove the teeth. what must i do ?
Hello,
My vote will be in the favour of your dentist. As your dentist said Wisdom tooth doesn’t help much in eating and you don’t need to replace that teeth after removal. Root canal in wisdom teeth is done in only few cases.
Next Steps
Visit your dentist and get your wisdom tooth removed.
