Re RCT or Extraction
Hi, my root canal tooth is infected. Should I opt for re rct or extraction followed by implant? The doctor says it's a 50-50 chance to save the tooth. But the cost increases because of post and crown. Is RCT worth it?

see re rct should be done only if the future of the tooth holds good , that means the present status of the tooth has to be analysed to do this procedure. thers is nothing like 50 50, if the progonosis is poor then better to go for extraction and implant . ask your doctor the reasons along with xray.bridgewaydental.com
