I am in need of a root canal on a molar and I know that dentists usually opt to save the tooth when possible but as a 20 year old without insurance it really is just too expensive for the treatment and crown. Would an extraction and a temporary partial like a nesbitt partial be a good option until I have enough saved for an implant or bridge? Or do the pros of a root canal and crown completely outweigh extraction?
