  7. Dear Dr Hebbar,

    what would you advise in case of a tooth with a failed old root canal treatment, which now has two granulomas (periapical abcesses) in the root (female, 36, tooth No.6, top)? The next tooth (5th) has now also got an inflammation in the root, the root is almost inside the sinus.

    Can the granulomas be healed with aurvedic methods and extraction avoided? Or if not, how to best prepare for the extraction?

    Many, many thanks!
