I've been reading that having a root canal can possibly be associated with having RA. I am wondering how many have root canals. I have more than a couple and it gives me pause because I have had various issues with them. So this is sort of research for me. I'd appreciate it if you told me and also if you have heard this and had yours removed.
Have had RA for 12 years and have never had one. My husband has had several and does not have RA. I think it's more dependent on the how good our teeth are.
I too am wondering if there is a connection between the root canal I had 33 years ago and my barrage if health problems over the years.
I had one, but it was years after my RA onset
The question for me is would it be worth it to get them removed or am I grasping at straws?
A few root canals b4 ra.and a few root canals after diagnosis.I have bad teeth
