Did this root canal in the year 2007 and the tooth is still surviving and serving its function in the oral cavity. Tooth 46 was presented with a buccal sinus and radiolucency at the furcation at the time root canal treatment was initiated. There was a lateral canal at the furcation, as the portal of exit. The review radiograph taken five years later showed complete healing, with trabecular bone reformation.
Recently I read about the downside of conventional root canal at several wedpages, and some suggesting alternatives such as improvising with Calcium Hydroxide.

The last article stating about the dangers of root canal, which worries me as I had one done years ago. Appreciate if you could comment on this matter.
Thank you.
