Pull Your Teeth Off Or Root Canal?  

I would like to keep my teeth, thank you! I think for many price is a big consideration. And the thought that eventually the tooth will be lost anyway. They keep their own parents and grandparents in mind, who probably all have a set of false teeth. People don't realize that with good maintenance you can keep your teeth until you die, even if you make it to 100+

At this point in my life, I would have to say to have it pulled. There is no way I could afford an 800 dollar or more root canal. Sad, but pulling a tooth is less expensive than paying for a super expensive root canal.

extraction is the last option,if you can afford and always consider the function of a natural teeth,why go for extraction right?
economics are almost always the reason of somebody who wants to have his/her tooth to be extracted

Root canal is better.Because it can preserve original tooth structure.The pressure of denture and original tooth absorb during mastication is different.Original one is better especially for posterior teeth where the force are highest.Other benefit are it can prevent absorption happen faster.Extraction only should be done if the tooth has already fracture severely or severe mobility.

A root canal serves to remove the pulp of a tooth (the nerves and blood vessels) when it becomes infected or decayed. It can be an extremely complicated procedure, but if performed properly, it is not nearly so painful as its reputation would have you believe. Root canals do have certain side effects, however, which you should learn to recognize before you undergo the procedure.
