Question:
I just started using a new dentist a few months ago.
At my last check-up she insisted on doing a panaramic xray. She says that I have an abscess on one of my upper teeth and need a root canal.
I have no pain in these tooth at all. Should I have a root canal when I have no symptoms? ... Visitor from PA
Answer:
Your dentist already confirmed that you do have symptoms.
Pain is not a reliable indicator of anything... just ask anyone with severe gum disease and jawbone resorption....
