Re: Dental advice needed

Here's my story with root canal.
Some yrs back one of my left lower
molars, which had fillings had to be
treated. The dentist did his job cleaning
all the roots.
During the treatment I said that I have
a feeling of infection somewhere in the
tooth. (Sensation of pressure or something
like that)
The tooth had been x-rayed before
treatment but somehow an undiscovered
extra root which previously had not been
detected was found with a new x-ray.
The dentist of course wanted me to have
a set of AB before he would continue with
the treatment. After some wks I went back
to him to see how things were.
During those wks or at any point during
the treatment I took any h-pathics or
painkillers (which I never take) cause I felt
there was no reason to take any.
The treatment was finished, the doc thought
I had taken the AB, he did the rest of the
job with a crown to be set on it.
All well without AB or hpathics. The tooth's
been OK ever since All I did was proper
cleaning twice a day. So, every case is
different and sometimes no intervention
is needed, only some time.
