In all honesty, even after all the health considerations, it may not be worthwhile to you financially to have a root canal. I spent almost 2,000 dollars on having a bio-calyx type root canal treatment and porcelain crown. The crown broke after three years and the tooth itself was never cured of infection. So now I still have to pay to get it extracted and will try using a flipper or partial for now (until genetic therapy comes along if it does). In all I have had 4 root canals costing near 5,000 dollars and have kept none of the teeth. In the meantime I believe I have put my health in jeopardy as a result. That is not to say that one cant have root canal teeth and be symptom free, but to me it is a health risk that might catch up to you eventually.
bio-calyx is a root canal filling material you should avoid. It is considered a banned substance and has been proven to expand upon setting therefore splitting a root! Root canals are a viable option in saving a tooth, and if you ever need a root canal, you should make sure you have it done by an ENDODONTIST (a root canal specialist) who will do it right the first time.
