who should perform extraction of root canaled tooth?
Also wanted to add that I have an appointment with a periodontist tomorrow to see if the problem I am having with the original root canal is in my gum. Every dentist I have seen keeps warning me that I could remove the tooth and still have the problem, so trying to rule out as much as possible beforehand. Just wondering if anyone has any opinion on whether it is better to have an extraction performed on a root-canaled tooth by a periodontist or an oral surgeon. The receptionist told me when I made the appointment for the periodontist that they do extractions, and that people are "amazed" by the difference in the quality when done by this periodontist.
As I am not sure whether I can have (or want) an implant, I am just curious about the best way to go about having an extraction. So far, it seems, I have made really bad choices. I would love to get some input on how to move forward with this.
