Question
Hi there,
Generally, you would have to wait for 4 weeks before commencing any dental
procedure. However, if you still experience discomfort and tightness in
the area where the thread lift was performed, then the dental procedure may
have to be postponed to a later date (more than 4 weeks) or as reviewed and
advised by your doctor.
Hope that helps.
Both root canal treatment and extraction are viable options for a severely decayed tooth. Factors to consider include:1) Patient ageBoth root canal treatment and tooth replacement (implants, bridges or dentures) have potential complications. Some complications may be easier to manage than others (root canal treatment failure vs implant failure). Some tooth replacement options (bridges) may require irreversible treatment for the adjacent teeth.
I would advise you to find a dentist to get a thorough dental examination. He/She would be able to advise and plan a list of dental procedures that you will need to improve your oral health. If cost is a concern, you can always have the attending dentist present a treatment plan to you before proceeding on with any dental treatment. This would also prevent miscommunication.
