Teeth pain
Hi my husband's one of the teeth on left side (3rd teeth from back) has been badly infected ( black in color) from past 2 yrs and now from 1 week suffering with pain. Consulted a dentist and advised for root canal treatment and capping. Can you tell me how effective is root canning and what would be the nominal charge for it and is capping compulsory required.

Hi. Root canal treatment is a tooth saving treatment option. The way you have mentioned black infected for the past 2 years and as per Dentists advice, yes it should go for root canal. And Root canal treatment is successful only if it is followed by capping. Cap gives strength to the root canal treated tooth. Treatment cost depends on clinic to clinic but ideally on average it costs 3000rs
