**** Hi His!  Good grief.  What in the world did your dentist do to you?  I 
had a root canal more than 35 years ago.  It has given me no trouble.  What 
remains of that tooth supports a crown, which looks pretty nice -- although the 
original crown has been replaced once.  If you have a root canal removed, then 
you lose the usefulness of that tooth altogether, don't you?  MA (who probably 
has a couple more root canals in her future, as thirty-year old silver fillings 
are beginning to fail and the dentist won't replace them with composite)  :-

  Then find another dentist.  Find a holistic dentist even if youhave to travel 
a little. They are your teeth.
