Root canals never worked on me before. now i'm faced with a root canal or tooth pulled again. don't know what to do. any suggestions?

Endodontist: Without knowing why prior root canal treatment(s) failed, it is best for you to see a root canal specialist for this one. Explain your history and concerns. Discuss treatment success rates and take it from there.
