Sounds to me it can me summed up in one word “ money.” There’s a lot of money involved in root canals than pulling a tooth. It depends on the tooth though. Sometimes you might need a oral surgeon type to get it out if there’s nothing much left on the surface to hold on to to pull the roots out.
You need to also let them know about your heart and any medicine your on particularly blood thinners before they pull it. Look for a oral surgeon type maybe.
Also don’t let a infected tooth hang around. It can get in your blood stream and even get to your heart and WCS toxic shock syndrome after pulling a tooth so unless you just finished antibiotics perhaps talk about taking it just before they pull it. I noticed a slight correlation between antibiotics and those taking Coumadin that their INR levels went up during that time.
If it’s difficult make sure they send you home with a pain prescription before the numbness wears off. You don’t want to bring your BP up either.
