Buster,

I am a huge believer in acupuncture and I believe the acupuncturist will have the best of intentions. However, they know nothing about root canaled teeth with regard to the anatomical nature of the chronic infection in the jaw. Whatever advice they offer you will be short lived as long as that tooth is present.

I would however suggest acupuncture for post op healing of the extraction!
