Mr.[redacted], I am very sorry for the troubles you have had with this tooth.  It seems to me that you have invested a lot of time and money into saving tooth#31.  Unfortunately root canal treatment, posts, and crowns can fail. The recommended treatment from the doctors or students...

at [redacted] is the same recommendation that came from Great Hill's Dr.[redacted] and Dr.[redacted] (Periodontist).  Placing a post after a root canal to retain a crown is appropriate treatment.   It is unfortunate that the root canal failed which seems to be the reason for infection. It could have been due to a fracture from the post or a fracture could have been there prior to post placement, no one can be certain.  All of these potential outcomes are part of the consent obtained prior to doing a root canal which was signed on 11/5/13.  If you want treatment within Great Hill, I would be happy to credit $1000 towards the implant placement for site #31. Warm Regards, [redacted] DDS, CEO
