Babylon, New York (www.malebits.com) Sep 22, 2008: Retreating a Root Canal Tooth or Extracting it and Placing an Implant.
Sometimes a tooth that has a root canal becomes re-infected or never became healthy after root canal therapy. The patient and clinician must then decide whether to retreat the root canal, or replace the tooth with an implant. Success rates for root canal therapy are as low as 53% and as high as 95% according to Eriksen 1991. A root canal infected with bacteria will develop a hollow space in the bone at the tip of the root. If this occurs, the success rate for the root canal retreatment is reduced 10-20% according to Sjorgren 1997.
