dean, thanks for the information re root canals. did you have all your root canals removed? all my front, top teeth are root canals and crowns and i have several more scattered in the back. i have concluded that the best solution would be to have them removed and wear dentures. i am concerned about the resulting " open holes" in my gums. how are these handled to avoid more infection? thanks, julie m.
