Re: Root canal causing health problems, what are my options?
What i want to know is, is there ANY decent option to getting the tooth pulled?
I doubt it because the tooth is dead. When they took the root out, that shut the blood supply off which is what heals.
I know you don't want to hear it, but the intelligent thing to do would be to pull it.
There is a laser treatment, but it would only be able to clear any infection at the gum level, which wouldn't do any good because the bad tooth would just keep dumping into the gum area and reinfecting.
I know what you're going through, but at least you know what the probable cause for your issues are. I read about root canal problems, but because none of them were causing any pain, or other problems I didn't act on on for a couple of years.
In that 2 years I was fed mega doses of antibiotics which did nothing but screw up my intestines. When I finally had the RC's removed all my health problems went away in about a month.
All that was left was the damage the antibiotics did.
I didn't get implants because they were metal, and they would have cost 20K.
Seriously, if you're smart you will get rid of that RC.
Good luck
