Tooth Grinding Support Group
You only have one set of teeth for life, so take good care of them. This is the place to discuss oral and dental care, good practices, dental office experiences, and general thoughts around those pearly whites.
I had avoided chewing food with the right part of my mouth for many years as it caused pain due to a severe cavity on my tooth. The bacterial infection had passed to the surrounding teeth and now, it's becoming a serious issue. As the depth of the cavity is too high, the cavity filling method can't be applied as a remedy for my problem. I found root canal or extraction are the only two solutions to this problem. However, I am confused to choose the right method and I don't know the advantages and disadvantages of both procedures. I want to know which procedure is more painful and needs more time to cure. Has anybody had a similar issue? How you choose your procedure for resolving the cavity? Please help me out of this problem.

My best friend ruined my day with her immature, bitchy self. If she doesn't get her way, she has a tizzy fit.

The Friday before Labor Day just before we left, the options given to me basically were either quit of be fired, and if I were to stay on I were to be put on an improvement plan, which is pretty much synonymous with getting fired. I was going to do the improvement plan and just ride it out until I found another job due to money and due to the fact that I did not want to quit without another job....
Can anybody please help me?
What did you decide to do?
As a general rule, root canals are better and easier and way less pain and hassle and money, than extracting teeth. You need to keep your teeth for as long as possible. Extraction is usually the last resort. Root canals aren't that bad. I have had many of them done in my life.
Do you have an update?
Thank you for your opinion. I had visited my dental clinic and my dental expert [https://www.appletondental.ca/services/dental-procedures/implants/ ] opted me to have dental implants as my teeth were in such a worst condition. He told me that there are chances of teeth weakening after root canal treatment. So he advised me to have dental implants as implants are better for the long term.
Anyway thank you so much for your suggestions and reply!
