Dr. Sonia Chopra, DDS, a board-certified endodontist, TEDx speaker, author, and E-School founder, argues that it is time to debunk such myths. Science has proven, over and over, that root canals are hugely beneficial to our oral health, not harmful. The thing that can really be harmful is the premature removal of teeth which leads to the loss of money, time, self-esteem, and self-confidence. Her website is DrSoniaChopra.com.
