@@boostinggtirtime yesh I thought $6k was expensive

Thank God I live in Sweden and has the chance of getting my root canal fix for only $20

Yes - it is immoral. Tooth cleaning $625. Allegedly deep cleaning is needed. Why? To spread around bacteria? I worked in company with many software engineers who recently came from India. All of them were taking vacations to go back home and to do dental work there. Prices about 10% of prices in US. And I heard that crowns used in US are made in India. The crown replacement = $1,300, bridge $3,600. That is simply a rip-off. I just had tooth extracted $2,300. Unbelievable.

Not everyone the same. Statistically root canals are dangerous

How do you which is the right dentist

@@alc6269 read reviews of dentists near you, avoid any big chain dentists like aspin dental etc. go in for a consultation with them, go over your xrays with them and discuss treatment plans prioritizing teeth that need immediate attention. Id recommend a good family dentist in a suburb, the best docs start private practices near where they live. Also a good dentist will always refer you to an endodontist when the treatment you need is beyond their care or more likely when you need a 3d scan like discussed in this video. I hope that helps

But extractions are very common here in Panama as so many people don't have a lot of money. Good Luck MB.

@@panamafred1 Thank you very much !! :) greetings from germany, michael

I agree with you 1000%. I am still suffering from my experience with the root canal.

I was never taken to a dentist until I was 11 years old, and when I was, they found lots of cavities and gave me lots of fillings. Then, ever since then, I kept getting abscesses, and I was given root canals, and then they kept pulling them as I got older. I am now 72, and I just had all my teeth pulled and I opted for false teeth with implanted snaps to hold them in. I have noticed that I have more energy but I still have tinnitus. The dental surgeon who pulled all of my teeth didn't even smooth down the sharp spikes in the bone after pulling my teeth, so they cut through the flap that he created to cover over the bone spurs. He also didn't do a post op exam. When I went back to show him how the bone spikes had cut through the gums he gave me a BS excuse and said that if I wanted him to smooth them down I would have to pay extra and said that he couldn't do it until 2 months later, which was in the middle of the winter holidays. I refused to let him touch me after that. I tried to find an attorney to write a letter for me to convince him to do it sooner and not make me pay extra since it wouldn't have been necessary if he had done it right in the first place. But none of then attorneys in my town will touch a dental case, not even to write a letter. I found the same thing when I lived in California when another dental group had done terrible things to my teeth, which has caused me to have them all pulled. I have put my career on hold for 10 years because I didn't have any front teeth and didn't look professional. Now I have no teeth and can't even wear my false teeth because of what this last oral surgeon has done and I will have to pay a new dentist another $3,000 to get this resolved, after already paying $22,000 cash to the oral surgeon. I have had a heart condition since my 20s, about the same time that I got my first root canal.

@Mark__ Hi Mark, actually my original plan was to go to Mexico and get several implants. However, with the cartels running the southern border, I decided that it wouldn't be safe. So sorry that you're going through tooth problems. It's good, though,that you found out while you're still young about what to look out for at the dentist.

​@@YdrakarMy dad had a metal crown fitted on one of his lower main chewing molars 25yrs ago on our NHS (National Health Service) and it's still in place and doing just fine 25yrs on. And he eats toffees and hard foods.

@@Matty_UK they’re pretty resilient it would seem, but then I don’t apply a ton of lateral force when chewing. I would think they respond well to compression which is mostly all that molars do.

what is cavitation surgery?

@SG100 It was under the tooth- an abscess that kept forming and then draining with a bit of applied pressure.

Hey I got a root canal and I got a small lesion (bump) right between the salivary gland holes and the RC tooth right after the procedure. Is that Root canal is what is causing it? Did the inflammation go away after extracting the tooth?

@@ipranoj Yes, a bump on the gum between the tooth with the root canal and the next one. I would press it with my finger, and that would cause the bump to sort of 'pop' and deflate, maybe releasing fluid via the salivary gland, but every few weeks it would reoccur. But this started up decades after the original procedure. As soon as the tooth was removed, the inflammation stopped.

@@Williamottelucas I'm happy that u got it removed and it's good now. Hoping I would get mine extracted too. This causes occasional pains on the jaw with the tooth and sometimes pain right at the bump. Had antibiotics but none seems to work.

@@ipranoj go for repeat RCT. Best way is like this. Get removed cap and the filling, dry it for 2months (no cap no filling ), after 2 months get filling, check for 2 to 3 Weeks, later go for crown. If you fallow these steps RCT tooth can last life time. You can have repeat RCT for every 10 years removing filling and cap. This process make sure removal of bacteria in the filling over time. Like this your RcT teeth can stay even 80 to 90 years. More better and longer duration than implants. My brother is Endodontist and also assistant professor in dental college. He said he has seen people with successful RCT teeth that lasted more then 40 to 50 years. Implants sure ly not alternative to RCT teeth because they lack natural ligaments that natural teeth have. they are like shock absorbers while chewing. So implants get loose over time and wear out after 20 to 30 years.implants are little use if they are for molars, if not totally useless..!!

@@FrenchFiliextraction

Same here

Me too I saw an endodontist who wanted to do a root canal without even looking at two CT scans that have been done in the last six months that show I have a lesion that caused my need to go to the emergency department at UCLA Santa Monica twice and I was diagnosed with facial cellulitis, but I just had a dental cleaning and found out after I was chatting with the Receptionist, the dentist walked by and overheard and wanted to look at my CT scans. She referred me to an endodontist who I met had a consult with and wanted to do a root canal literally in 72 hours, which would’ve Monday Feb.5th (my tomorrow morning which I had to reschedule to a week from tomorrow for financial reasons because I don’t have dental insurance and he wants $2000 approximately so that amount of money can change because it’s tooth number 31 back lower molar. The dentist that had read my CT scan also gave me a referral card to a oral and Max facial surgeon at St. John’s in Santa Monica. After going in my wallet, I opened up the card and on the card for this referral of this secondary dentist there’s a checkmark next to extraction and then a checkmark next to implant for tooth number 31 so she gave me a referral to two different specialists. I’m gonna go to the urgent dental clinic at UCLA in Westwood first thing in the morning. I’d rather a dental student at UCLA where my daughter-in-law went to medical school, touch my face and my teeth if I can’t afford this lovely dentist, who I just listen to an hour and a half interview with this KZfaq channel that I of course politely subscribed to, and like the video and I don’t even know Who this nice young man is, but when I have time and it’s not midnight, I will definitely look at his channel that I subscribe to and check out his other interviews because this was an excellent informative emotionally and physically lifesaving moment. 56 years old I had heart surgery 20 years ago last month. None of these questions were asked about my health. I just had to say who my primary care doctor was and it was such a long thing to fill out that I didn’t even finish filling out my medical information and they wanted to take two grand And bullshitted me that they could get all the infection out of my jaw with a root canal. I’m gonna go reread both CT scans now in my chart because I’ve gotten incredible team of doctors that I’ve taken an unbelievable care of me but I had a massive two day spine surgery at UC San Francisco working in coordination with my entire team down here in Los Angeles and I have top doctors even though I don’t have a Blue Cross PPO anymore and I’m on Medi-Cal and the first reason I was going to private pay dentist is because the one dentist that did take Medi-Cal when I just needed a dental cleaning Wanted to do something to 11 of my teeth when I had one small cavity so I asked one of my older sisters, childhood friends who is a dentist if she would see me and she totally opened up her office just because my sister is and gave me a feeling she seemed way more concerned and because I just had my teeth cleaned. She walked to the back and made me eat a handful of antibiotics, after a teeth cleaning she was so concerned after looking at both CT scans being able to read what the radiology report said. I’m not a doctor, so I do not try anymore to google things which I’m shocked that this video appeared because I was trying to catch up on other Channels I am subscribed to. Thanks for what you wrote in the comments. I also commented and good luck with your teeth. Just like the Medi-Cal dentist it seems like they just wanted to charge Medi-Cal and do work on teeth that didn’t need to be done so that’s why I’ve gone to my sister‘s friend, the dentist to get my teeth cleaned and one small cavity filled I wasn’t even due for x-rays Until later this month because she does x-rays once a year. Well she did not let me leave that office without me doing x-rays so that was another 300 bucks. I was happy to pay because she was truthfully worried when she overheard my conversation and I thought I was supposed to book up Appointment with my dermatologist in Westwood when I called UCLA and told them the ER diagnosis of facial cellulitis. They said that scan you need to see your dermatologist not your primary care doctor so so so so I’m beyond lucky to found this video and listened to this lovely dentist For the last hour and a half> take care of your teeth, and after this one and a half hours of information, I’d rather have my tooth pulled and go without a tooth there for as many weeks as it needs to heal or whatever then go have a root canal which I did some googling before making this comment and a root canal cannot get rid of all infection. I’m so disturbed by the fact I almost put two grand on my credit card. I’m on disability was almost ripped off and tortured for a treatment. That is the wrong treatment. Maybe that’s why she gave me a referral card to two different kind of dental surgeons wow…. you get what you pay for usually and for having one tooth x-rayed multiple times at least I know why I ended up in the emergency department where I was so swollen I could not speak and let alone breathe and swallow and I was taking in both times immediately I did not wait they took me in as fast as if I was having a heart attack and I kind of felt bad for all those people in the waiting area two days after Christmas, but UCLA Santa Monica emergency department is top-notch and both times they pump me with IV antibiotics and ordered proper CT scans. I’m just disappointed with the UCLA appointment number receptionist who told me I needed to see a dermatologist. They should’ve at least sent me to my primary care physician ..wtf? It Los Angeles so ……..(🤬😳🤯🧐

yeah every one that has a bad tooth cant breath lol

Fell a year ago chipped both front teeth that now have fractures to the gum line, one of them has that sensation afraid I'm going to need an implant... what are your future plans for that tooth?

I have a dental appointment later today and my main objective was to tell my dentist to give me a root canal on a recently crowned tooth. Now my plan has changed. Now I see that God was protecting me when she(my dentist) cancelled on me last week.

This is scaring me bc I'm supposed to get one done soon!! Wtf

It's best too just have the tooth removed completely. Root canals kill the nerve leaving behind a dead tooth with a cap on it to harness bacteria growth to only lead to more complications down the line.

Will you stop talking and let the dentist talk? We know you had your teeth fixed, so obvious the way you talk trying to smile to show them..so annoying that you try to show you know this topic.

Ringing in the ear is mainly from damaged ears from loud noises, like shooting guns n listening to loud music n other loud noises You also get hearing loss Maybe is this woman's case her ringing stopped, but for most people they damaged their ears in many different ways n that is why they got ringing in their ears N getting their root canals pulled won't stop their ringing from damaged ears, maybe it did for her, but most people getting your root canal pulled won't stop the ringing in the ears

Infected root canals should never be left in just as an infected tooth should not be left in. Also, operator experience and technique is critical. Some general dentists are not qualified to do Root canals and a good endodontist specialist can evaluate if a Root canal is a good choice or not.

I have same situation; it's scary. Would you please tell me, when you say you had "removal," are you referring to removal of the destroyed part of your jaw? Was it a regular oral surgeon who did your work? Dentist recommending I get root canal redone & that endodontist would probably put medicine in tooth to clean it up. Was told that bone would just grow back. But it's sounding like it needs to be scraped out first...?

@@DiamondPR yeah that is true. Not too many surgeons do this biological dental practice in my city and I'm still looking for one. Thanks for the positive encouragement. Stay healthy.

This lady has zero knowledge regarding root canal treatment. Endodontist who have studied root canal for years know the value and risks of procedure. Whatever she is telling has no evidence. After a lot of reasearch for many years Root canal treatment is ideal choice of saving tooth which are badly decayed If you want your teeth extracted then you have to replace it further with an implant or Bridge...it also had its cons, if not done correctly it can lead to bone loss and infection. Later you will not have any option left.. if you leave space without replacement your teeth will start moving your bite will change you will have pain. At the end every body reacts to every treatment in a different way. Most of the root canal treated teeth last life time without any adverse effects.

I will have them removed

I have all these symptoms with having had a root canal 🤷🏻‍♀️

This is a misleading video don't believe anything, she's just trying to sell her speciality, root canal is necessary if there's infection present it won't go on its own even after taking medicines, also to your question, if you're maintaining your oral hygiene properly and you can see in the mirror that you're teeth is stain free then once a year is sufficient, otherwise twice a year would be best, a simple cleaning can prevent you from getting any other treatments as while cleaning the dentist can inform you what all things are present they may need to be treated

The dentist probably punctured to the sinus when removing the teeth.

Omg ! Having a root canal gone wrong right now . Ear was ringing , went to the dr . He saw nothing , said it looked good . Had an echo in my ear as well. 3 days later bottom right of jaw is swollen like The Godfather . I knew something was wrong since I had the procedure 6-7 months ago . This tooth is probably coming out . Currently in clindamucin antibiotic but serupiodly thinking of going to er and having a specialist just remover the freaking it’s been so troublesome for 5 years now . It all started with a cavity filling that fell out right before Covid . The similarities tho , just spot on . I read 90% are successful mine is a not successful and seems the smart thing is to rid the tooth .

I had 2 bad root canals on my left side. 1 abscessed with terrible pain about 5 years in and i got it extracted. The other I had for 14 years with no pain but I got it extracted after reading up on root canals and when it was removed there was actually an abscess underneath.

@@Hungrybird474 just get rid of it. The one I had that eventually abscessed with terrible pain the dentist had convinced me to try and keep and i had repeated antibiotics and problems with it, then one day it just went into a mental abscess.

The dental industry and practices are very shady (generally). Glad you are feeling doing better.

What do you mean removed the root canal?

@chirpbirds924 removed the root canals = removal of the crown and the dead tooth the dentist told me to "save". If a teeth must be root canaled then = pulled only. If a teeth has been root canaled =must pull out. It's not easy getting a dentist to pull a tooth that had the root canal procedure. I had to beg my original dentist to do it and sign a waiver that i wouldn't sue them.

@ellem8010 thanks. The improvement was near instant, within 1 week. The metals circulating and bacteria cause numerous problems and manifest as different symptoms. That's what tricky because you assume your new diseases or worsening preexisting conditions are caused by something else such as age, bad diet, family history etc. When its non of that. Trust me nothing will improve your health except removal. It's in the published research. Doctors will try to get you on strong steroids - life will go downhill with that

Ok, so removing a root canal isn't simply removing the crown, but the whole tooth? @@nesq4104

Thank you for this comment! At 18 I had 20+ fillings, 3 teeth pulled, 3 root canals, gum surgery. At 20 I had chronic pain, fatigue, brain fog, anemia. Diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I've spent a lot of money on dental and specialist. I got extremely sick at 40 and decided to have all my upper teeth pulled. Couldn't afford to maintain them. I have 1 massive amalgam filling in my last remaining lower molar and old root canal on lower to be removed. I'll have 6 teeth left at 44 years old. Amalgam mercury is a neurotoxin and cause lower brain cognition. Stay away. I'm now bedridden at 44 in the predicament you stated above. Tons of health issues.

Dentistry does not and has never caused chronic fatigue syndrome. CFS has several known causes which I will not go into, but fairly simple treatments by a well qualified naturopath can eliminate CFS from most but not all causes. But for the record, people who have never been to a dentist in their lives can have CFS. Don’t blame dental work !!!

@@Bobbychildree Do you think that dental, gum, general mouth health issues can lead to heart issues? And what are your thoughts on amalgam mercury fillings?

@@frebrd78 I have some amalgam fillings in areas that would be pretty hostile to composite fillings, but I prefer composites in esthetic areas when possible. Both the mercury in amalgam and certain components of composites will leach toxins, but fortunately that is a very very slow process, so no real worry. As to heart disease - the answer is yes. If a person does not use dental floss and proper brushing on a daily basis, periodontal disease can develop. It starts as simple gingivitis (bleeding gums) but gradually progresses to infected ligaments around some teeth. That leads to periodontal pockets and exacerbation of the periodontal disease. At this point various pathogenic bacteria have in effect a super highway into the blood supply of the teeth and gums… a highway to the heart. If their are any even microscopic defects in the heart, colonies of pathogens can be established. Same goes for the circulatory system and so on. Fortunately for us, God gave us an immune system to fight all this bad stuff, but that system can be overwhelmed by sheer volume of pathogens and it can also be compromised by our sometimes poor diets. (Sugar harms our immune system, some drugs affect it, smoking harms it - I’m no expert on the immune system.) My answer is covering up your question, I hope I answered all of it. Some years ago I read “It’s All In Your Head” by Dr. Hal Huggins and was mortified that a dentist could tell so many outright lies for financial gain! These people make a LOT of money selling their snake oil, let me tell you! I’m 79 and able to ride my bicycle 50-60 miles and then enjoy the rest of the day. Silver fillings and root canals have certainly not affected my health.
