Hi team,
I find myself in need a root canal and I understand from my dentist the NHS option is extraction.
They also tell me that this particular tooth accounts for 60% of my chewing function (I guess the implication is that extraction may be a bad idea).
Dentist tells me they have someone who will do the root canal privately for something like £950.
I'm looking at what I want to do, perhaps I might even look at an implant.
Anyway, my question of the forum is how do you select a good private dentist when the NHS fails you? Can't seem to find very much by way of who's a charlatan and who knows what they are doing.
