I've had a root canel tooth for nearly a year, and I went to the dentist, but I got really scared as he came at me with a needle and didn't get my tooth done. And now my jaw seems to click, my tooth aches, its swollen underneath, its got a hole inside the tooth. But I don't see myself going to get it done anytime soon. What could happen to me if I don't get it done yet? If I know, then I might just do it...

When you're in pain from a root canal infection, you are more than happy to have a root canal. Either that or have someone shoot you to put you out of your misery.
It seriously hurts!

I think this dentist did poor job. He is now telling me to remove the tooth. I told him can he redo the root canal and kill all the root but he said it can not be done. He said remove the tooth, which making me upset. Please give me some suggestion. I think this dentist is not very good. I looked at his customer service ratings he got 1.5 out 5. While other dentis has 4.5 to 5 out of. This endodontist name is Dr. Wing F Chan, DDS. ++

Hi, It is 6 am. One of my tooth hurts. I had a root canal done about 2 years ago. The pain was always there, but I convinced myself it will go away in time, but it is been a week it is really bothering me. So much from that tooth. I can not grind that tooth against other tooth. Cold ice seem to makes if feel better. I went back to the dentist who did my root canal said, the tooth next to is problem and he want to perform root canal on that tooth. I am 100% sure that is not the problem. ++

Hi Dr.:
I hear having a Root Canal can be a bad idea, but I'm not finding any definitive reasoning.
Do you have any?
Or are you like "Hey, at $1K per, the more the merrier!"
