Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] I had one of the upper-jaw tooths root canal ed.Post treatment, I used to ve food lodgment problem surrounding the cavities adjoining the gums of treated tooth i.e: small slices of food teer into the gum s and cavities. When I went to see a Dr, she removed the cap along with which the tooth part came out. Dr. has suggested me 3 options : 1) Have an implant by removing the root. 2) Have a bridge by cutting the left-adjacent natural tooth and removing the cap of right-adjacent root-canal ed tooth. Which one would be better option to prevent food lodgment? 1 or 2? Would you suggest 3) a replacement of cap? or 4) leaving the root-canal ed tooth open?
[|AI|]  Hi, Ideally an implant is the best option as the adjacent teeth remain unharmed. But in your case your one adjacent tooth is already capped, so a bridge may not be a bad option. Please ask your dentist if the fractured tooth can be saved somehow with the use of a post and core treatment and recapping. If it is not an option due to severely damaged tooth then you may go ahead with a bridge or an implant as both will prevent food lodgment. Regards
