Dr. Loparo has completed two root canals with crowns for me -one about 14 years ago and the other about 3 years ago.
Both have now failed and required extraction. This is a procedure which should have an 80% success rate at least.
The first one that failed he offered to extract. The pain was excruciating, and I honestly don't feel that he had much empathy. His constant monitoring of how much I have left in my year's insurance leads me to believe he is more interested in lining his pockets than in patient well-being.
