I need to know....

Had one many years ago, the only bit of pain (more discomfort) was when they poured some antibiotics in, but that was only for a coupla Mins.. Afterwards was fine. Everyone’s different though, if you’re not sure book a days leave the following day maybe?

Did it work in the long run?

I had a few visits for root canal only for the tooth to be removed about 12 months after my last visit.

Has anyone here had a root canal?

What's involved, how long after did you go back to work?

You'll be a bit sore that night (4 or 5/10) and be in a bit of discomfort (2 or 3/10) the day after, I've never had the day after off but if you've got the leave, use it, can't hurt.

Yeah, take it off and go out for a nice lunch.

I've just had the last week off with some sort of death germs from the plane ride back from Brisbane.

I have a very low tolerance to pain and given that I'm supposed to talk for a living, not sure how I'd go the next day.

2 of mine were removed within about 18 months of being done.
I will just get the tooth removed in the future if I am ever advised for a root canal again

I've got two that are "in the process" of being done. They've both been cleaned out, had the antibiotic plugs put in them for a few weeks then back for x-rays to confirm infection is gone.

Both have a temporary cap put on it, one was about 3 years ago and it's showing a little sign of wear and tear. I'm meant to go back for a crown ( about $2000 ) but when it falls apart I'll have it pulled.

The other I had done about 7 years ago, the temporary lasted about 4 years, had another temporary put on at the same time as the other and it's currently in the same state, a little bit of wear and tear.

Touch wood they've both got another 3-4 years in them.

None of this compares to the 3 wisdom teeth I had out that had me at home on the lounge for 8 days in a fair amount of pain.

I went to the RAH for my wisdom teeth removal, was meant to get two done at once, he decided against doing the 2nd one at the same time after a 2 hour fight.

The dentist couldn't get the first one out so he smashed it with a hammer and chisel then tried to remove all the broken bits, he split the side of my mouth in doing so and for the next 6 months I had random shards pushing their way through my gums until I picked them out myself.

I was really looking forward to the 2nd one coming out.

I had 3 wisdom teeth taken out at once in a private hospital - the whole thing cost me about $2500 (back in 2003) paid cash - dont' remember a thing which is just the way I like it.

I did toy with the idea of pulling the tooth out but it's front and middle and didn't want to look like a Port supporter - that and they said that the tooth has no decay whatsoever on it so it's worth saving

I had about %80 of a tooth kicked out nearly 30 years ago and rebuilt at the time. Last thing before bed on Sat night (well early Sunday morning) I bit something and the tooth broke, Thinking I'll probably need an implant now (front tooth), anyone know how much I'd be looking at for one of those?

Around $3K if you're lucky, loose change in the ashtray.

Just got off the phone from Miss Boon who had 2 back from her K9 removed this afternoon after it split during a root canal. Didn't even know she was having it done....

$6k was the quote.

hang on, she didn't know they were doing a root canal?

No, I didn't know she was having one done. She's been house sitting for a couple of weeks, didn't even know she was having any trouble.

sorry, I read that incorrectly, I thought you said that SHE didn't know she was having one done. I was thinking "that's a bit illegal, surely"

Far Kme, those implant figures ain’t pretty
