Sounds like a great way of fixing or repairing the problem but unless someone has dental insurance that will cover that procedure and pay for the majority of it, how would one afford such? The majority of us can barely afford the price of having fillings put in. I am currently waiting for Medi-Cal to come through so I can have the rest of my teeth pulled and a full set of dentures put and I am only 48 y.o. I have taken very good care of my teeth but since getting a flu vaccine shot in 2004, I have lost the majority of my teeth. It really sucks that medical insurance and procedures and the costs of such are astronomical. I would have much preferred to save my teeth with whatever procedures could have/should have been performed. It is not an easy choice to make anymore - pay my utilities or fix my teeth. Wish I could do both.

A big problem with pulling a tooth is that you'll need to put something back in there or all your teeth will shift. Hope you find what works.
