The before and after of having my tooth with a root canal pulled is unbelievable! For the last year or two (looking back maybe five years) my life has been such a struggle. I couldn’t figure out why I had gone from a vibrant, busy, upbeat, positive, person, to one who could hardly get out of bed, didn’t want to do anything, or go anyplace – Things I had always enjoyed doing. I blamed it on growing older. Well!!! I’m back to my old self since having that tooth pulled and am now planning to have my other two root canal teeth pulled. Before having that tooth pulled I went to an endodontist (per Dr. Rehme’s advice) hoping to save the tooth. However the tooth continued causing me problems. Thus, the decision to have it pulled. I will never have another root canal!!
