Should children have root canals?
If our childrens teeth fall out (the baby teeth) should they have to get root canals? Is the dentist pulling our leg telling us they have to have one? What do you think? Anyone? Dentists? Anyone out there with similar experiences? Thank You and Have A Blessed Day
Does mi medicaid cover root canals and crowns?
I live in New York and Medicaid will do root canal therapy on all teeth except the molars. There are fine lines with that as if you are missing other specific anterior teeth (front teeth) in your mouth, they will actually do root canals on molars if you fit this demographic. There is another fine line here as they will NOT pay for root canal teeth until it can be proven that there is an abscess, and this means pretty much it has to abscess at the root for Medicaid to cover the cost on the root canal therapy. Most teeth cannot be proven, as 2d radiographs don't show anything normally until the abcess at the root occurs. They will also not pay for crowns if you want to crown a root canal therapy tooth. Waiting for an abcess to occur is not good, and teeth should never be let go till that point. It dimishes the root canal therapy success rates and you're dealing with pain and discomfort for elongated periods of time with a higher potential for tooth loss as an abcess damages the jawbone.
