The articles that are pro Endodontic therapy are easily obtainable. After all it is a multi million dollar profession! I will not provide those for you as they intentionally offer a partial explanation of the acutal procedure and completely neglect to inform about the risks associated with retaining an infected tooth.
The science regarding bacteria and infection is very simple and well documented in medical and dental literature but it is often written for the professionals rather than the public. So as a lay person, you will need to rely on other trusted sources. So perhaps you will find the work of Dr Meinig, Dr Kulacz, Dr Price, reliable sources since they all were in the thick of things and fortunately lived to write about it for the betterment of all people.
Good luck on your journey. I hope your research helps you make the choice that you feel is in your best interest.

My dentist is putting aside extra time to try to fix it with just a filling. She feels it's possible if she does some of it manually and uses low speed drilling rather than the high speed drill. I hope so because I'm sure as heck not ready psychologically for another extraction after this last one.
BTW, Thank you. I would have replied sooner but for some reason I wasn't notified (or didn't see it) by email of this post.
