Hi,
Is it possible a root canal treatment has failed when there is no apparent evidence on a radiograph together with no signs of inflammation?I ask this because I have had 2 molars that showed no evidence of infection on an x-ray or produced any signs of inflammation yet when apical surgery was done I was told by the oral surgeon the teeth were infected.
I'm still struggling with pain in that region but I am told there is no infection (as per radiography) so I am somewhat perplexed.
Is there official documentation on this subject?
Many thanks.
Jason
