One of the things I'm looking at very shortly is getting a tooth that
I had a root canal done on seven years ago "surgically retreated".
Now, the cost of doing this, with the crown works out to around
$2500cdn. The cost of an implant is around $2900cdn. I'm told that
the retreated tooth should last my lifetime, I suspect the same could
be said of the fake tooth.Which is the better option?
