Implant vs Endo

Wed, 11/19/2008 - 09:41 — Michael Stanley, asst. (not verified)

Without reading the study and methodology, I can't judge what it REALLY means. My perception is that the relative success and complication rates are highly "Doctor-Dependant". For example, we have and endodontist in our area whose RCTs become future apicos at an alarming rate. In our practice, we generally replace teeth with implants when endo become unpredictable or retreatment has failed, so it isn't our first line of defense. Yet. Natural teeth/roots are still best, but that may change in the future. Just my opinion.
