Prior to undergoing Root Canal Therapy it is important that you read, understand and consent to the following:
The alternative to Root Canal Therapy is usually Extraction
The completed treatment usually takes between 1-3 visits
There is a 5-10% chance that the root canal therapy may not work. Further dental treatment may be necessary in such cases.
The treatment is generally painless but some discomfort may occur between visits which can be controlled pharmaceutically
Existing restorations, crowns, veneers or tooth structure may break as a result of root canal therapy
Instruments used to clean the tooth may break and/or perforate the internal part of the tooth
Complications may be encountered due to difficult tooth anatomy, blocked canals, preexisting treatment, split tooth, breakage of instruments inside tooth or perforations of the tooth.
Such complications may result in the necessity to extract the tooth, perform further dental treatment such as apical surgery and/or referral to endodontic specialist to complete the necessary treatment
Crown with or without post/core is strongly recommended to reduce the chance of fracture of the root canal treated tooth
The treatment has been discussed with my dentist and any additional questions and concerns have been addressed
