I totally empathize with your pain. I have been told that root canals are dead teeth and will regrow bacteria in the closed environment and cause disease and possibly heart issues. This tooth that has 2 fillings had a breech form the temporary that caused the bacteria to enter the pulp and nerve and Sue enormous gum pain to the other teeth. Even by a miracle if I can heal the tooth I won't be able to eat on that side because food gets trapped constantly by the gum line. I would need a cap if I can save it but then again I would susceptible to regrowing bacteria in there again after capping. I 've heard of teeth rebuilding but can't imagine how that happens. My dentist says removal and temporary appliance are the only healthy options. I don't know what to do.

Not really what you want to hear: A root canal followed by a crown. Been there, done that. Tried for over a year to save two abcessed teeth to no avail. Finally they started to affect other teeth and I had to have four - yes four 4 root canals done within a week. Within a few days of the work, the infection cleared up with antibiotics. Still have to get the crowns done
and possibly a bridge.
