Dr. George Guise, an endodontic root canal specialist at 7 Day Dental in Orange County: http://www.7daydental.com talks about reasons why you might need tooth root canal treatment. First
symptom is pain or severe sensitivity to cold. You may have a bad infection or a fractured tooth. And sometimes you need it for restorative reasons, because there is not enough tooth left and it needs to be restored to be able to put a post there. In general, root canal therapy is the last line of defense before a tooth has to be removed. It is best when you keep the tooth in the mouth for an extended period of time, rather than extracting infected tooth. Man-made implants are a wonderful thing, but your natural teeth are best.
