Root Canal Post Pacemaker installation

Dear All,

My dad a pacemaker implanted in September last year and he is doing OK with it. In recent days he was having a toothache and he had to see a doctor. The doctor has suggested root canal but has asked for a written confirmation from the Heart Dr. Looking into all these we are a bit tensed that should we go ahead and do it or look for any other option. My dad is 61 now.

Thanks,

Dalbir Singh

I had a pacemaker when I was 11. I never once thought I wasn't a 'normal kid' nor was I ever treated differently because of it. I could do everything all my friends were doing; I just happened to have a battery attached to my heart to help it work.
