This tooth was root canaled bc it had a large cavity, and actually the general dentist whom I need to ask for the pre root canal x ray was the one who did the rc. No other procedure was done on this tooth and it was root canaled once. And all these years NOBODY mentioned that white spot, and I had at least 4 dentists after him ( bc of the insurance ). About getting the pre root canal x ray, it's been 17 years, should the dentist keep records for that long, when you are not their patient anymore ? and isn't the original theirs to keep ?
So, if this white thing wasn't there before the rc procedure and is rc material, it didn't move anywhere all these years, bc if it did it would've been somewhere else already ? What's my next step if I can't get the pre rc x ray ? And if it's something not really removable , like you said it may be , what then ?
Thank you for your time and answers again !!
