Root canal issue

2018-08-15 10:15:57
I am getting root canal treatment on my 26th tooth. The endodontist is not able to open the third curvy canal so he is saying that there's no alternative but to do the filling on the tooth, then crown it. I am worried that the infection may spread later to other teeth. Kindly guide me on this.

Hello sir, A complete root canal treatment has to be done to relieve all the symptoms . More over the treatment mainly depends on the tooth morphology . So x ray is required to decide anything . And more over you can discuss your issues with your doctor.

Hi. Root canal morphology is very diverse. Yes there might be curved canals but I m use there it’s not impossible to treat curved canals too. Plz make sure that crowns are placed after the complete of a good Endo treatment of the teeth. Root canals done under microscopes would also help identify if there are any missed canals.

Hi...Curved canals are difficult to treat but it is not possible to comment without x ray.You can consult another endodontist for second opinion.
