Message: [QUOTE="MattKW, post: 122340, member: 7514"] Curettage is really a cleaning out. In cases like your where the wound has healed up, I assume it would be going through the gum directly where the tip of the root used to be. But I'd expect to have some draining abscess or swelling to justify that treatment. Going in and curetting upsets the nerve fibres (like a spiderweb) in these situations. It's not a bad thing - patients just say it feels "different" afterwards. Yes, a full CT volume is many Mb - I usually get them from the radiologist on a DVD. [/QUOTE]
