Dental Benefit – Abscessed Tooth
Question: I have an abscessed tooth and the cost I was quoted for a root canal is $1500.00 plus crown cost is more. I can’t afford that. I would like to know if I go to the dentist just to have the tooth pulled. Well it really effect my other teeth all that much?
Reply: If you pull a tooth without replacing it with a bridge, partial or dental implant your teeth over time will start to shift. So generally this would not be advised. I would suggest looking into getting dental insurance in order to make your needed dental care more affordable
