THE PURPOSE of endodontic treatment or root canal treatment is to save the tooth rather than remove it.  Although treatment has a high degree of success, it cannot be guaranteed.  Occasionally, a tooth that has had a root canal treatment may require re-treatment, surgery or even extraction.

Treatment is usually a non-surgical procedure, but in some cases, a surgical approach is necessary.  Before any treatment is begun the reason(s) will be explained, including alternative modes of therapy.  Occasionally, pre-medication may be indicated.  This will be discussed in advance.
 
PLEASE NOTE: The fee will not include a permanent filling or crown on the tooth. You must return to your general dentist to have that treatment completed.
 
I consent to necessary treatment and authorize the release of any information needed for further treatment.
