[Serious] if you got several teeth need to root canal

[hwsstx]

I heard India much cheaper

 

[XiaoChilli]

Dentures!

Dentures shud be cheaper. Can do in sg la.

 

[vbhelper]

u brush once a day?

 

[DragonFire]

not true...

after u pluck a tooth, the bones that's holding it will eventually be absorbed by the body. and the surrounding teeth will experience a shift that will affect your bite.

if wait too long before doing implant, the bone loss might be too much that can't hold the implant screw, then dentist have to do a bone graft. I.e additional costs to implant.

Dentist can advise which can be removed without causing too much problem. If it is the rearmost molars, most people can do without a set. If others, extraction is definitely not recommended for the reasons you mentioned.

Remember that cost is ultimately an issue for folks.

No wor. U go check how much it cost to make in sg vs in jb. Dun say d acrylic 1s. Just d flexible 1s. As more comfortable.

 

[Laneige]

Do one tooth root canal 1k plus
Do crowning 1k plus
Each tooth ard 2k plus to 3k. Also got risk reinfected if do root canal and redo root canal again.

What will you do?
Extract liao no more tooth wor. And ugly.
Dental implants like more expensive than root canal.

I brush my teeth daily. Dunno y like this maybe my diet too many sweet food.

Got any recommendations how to do it cheaply or any alternative to go about?

Can save jiu save
But find second opinion first
Some dentist or doc no ethics one or they think is only way out
So best always ask for second opinion
Best don’t find those group ones else I feel some might have to answer to boss etc or incentives

I think for some the tooth already dead the dentist told me thats why theres no pain.. so in the past I choose not to do anythg abt it and leave in there.
But now got one tooth think reach the pulp already dats why painful.
Made me think abt the rest of the teeth that require root canal too.
But dead liao can just leave there right? Lol

Will continue to rot I guess

Dentist will x ray and evaluate. If a tooth is dead and still infected, it is actually very bad for the body.
Sometimes tooth pain is actually gum pain/inflammation. Let dentist see. not necessarily the tooth is gone completely.

India food I also dont dare eat liao. Not to mention dentist lol.
Plus the country better dont go. Because of obvious reasons

I did 3 root canal all at one go. My dentist boasted he should be the only one in Sg that did 3 at once.

But it was dam siong. I open mouth till tired. Kept apologising to him for closing. He also kept saying "It's ok" till he tired. Both he and me just endured.

It was painful too. He inject my tooth dunno how many times. I tot I was going to die.

Implant can use medisave, root canal cannot.

Can recommend?
I not alot of time to go visit I heard need three appointments to solve at least for root canal and also appt for crowning.
I need a dentist can do everythg one shot.

How many percent ah?

 

[MoeLanYong]

Of course do root canal better than implants.

I get to keep my own teeth. Implants is fake

 

[rabies79]

You need to check with the dental clinic liao. There is a cap to the medisave withdrawal limit to use for implants. But better than root canal cannot claim at all.
