Need urgent root canal treatment in tooth filled 6 weeks ago @ huge expense.Was it bad dentistry in 1st place?
Any a time a tooth is drilled on there is a slight chance of the tooth reacting badly and needing a rootcanal. I have seen this happen many times. It doesnt have anything to do with the dentist not cleaning the tooth before filling it. Most fillings when they are removed have at least a small amount of soft tooth structure underneath. This has to be removed to place the new filling. This process could have been all that was needed to cause the tooth to flair up. Sorry, but I dont think that the dentist did anything wrong. It is kinda like getting a kidney replaced and your body rejecting it. It is nobodys fault, sometimes it just doesnt work like expected.
