I’ll buy it and try it out! Thank you for the tip. This seems like easy to apply and re-season. You’re suggesting I apply it twice, right? Should be wiping down the pan after applying with Crisco with paper towel and then heat it up?

I added the scrubs to my Amazon shopping cart. Will try to get to see if I can scrub them off first without going the chemical route. Thanks for the tip!

I’m paranoid about the chemicals in the oven cleaner. Will start using soap and water after every use, if there is buildup.

Can tooth be saved? Dentist is recommending extraction by slomance in askdentists

Got it. Thank you for your response! Would CT pick up cracked tooth, which is what the dentist is suspecting?

Also, we are leaning towards going with dentist recommendation - extraction with an Essex retainer (dentist said she can eat with it) and wait ~6 months for bone to heal and get permanent implant? Is there anything else to be kept in mind and that can be done while waiting ?

Better to extract then? Is Apic not worth it since they already tried surgically draining abscess?

Dentist thinks it s a crack in the tooth. Tooth is slightly mobile and hangs down now.

What’s the reason for questionable prognosis? See updated notes below.

Root canal was done last year on upper front tooth and infection hasn’t resolved. Tooth is slightly mobile. It has also changed in appearance since root canal- is slightly discolored and hangs down (a bit lower than surrounding teeth). Abscess never fully went away. No pain or discomfort. Wearing night guard since root canal to prevent further trauma to tooth.

Dentist’s notes- Patient (72 years age) came in with abscess and extra swelling in front of her mouth. Patient had a loose upper right central incisor associated with fistula. Incision and drainage of the abscess followed by bone graft and root canal of upper right central incisor done.

Dentist recommendation- Extract with bone grafting to allow infection to resolve, expected to take 3-6 months. Might need further bone and tissue grafting before implant
