    A root canal is no different than getting a filling. Just a little more digging Winner.

    I dont know where your from, or what your paying, but if your going to the bash in CR, get them done there...about a 1/3 of the price, better quality

    Really? Hope they said you have to come back to complete it. It isn't a one shot deal.

    only difference than a filling is you can't chew on the root canal for a while

    root canal nothing.

    try an apico which is what you have to get when root canal goes sideways.

    just had one three weeks ago. takes 6 months to heal and feel right. still in pain everyday

    Root canals used to be a lot harder years ago. My dentist is hot and 25, I almost don't mind seeing her.

    Had a dental implant about 6 years ago on one of my front teeth. Man was that a bitch. First get the remainder of the old tooth out. Wait for that to heal. Go back and they cut it back open to "add bone" where the bone in the jaw that has receded over the years. Wait for that to heal. Go back and get the actual implant placed in the jaw. That has to heal. Finally get the tooth placed (screwed into) the implant. Whole process took over 4 months. Better than a permanent bridge, but man was that an ordeal.
