lybrate-user I think you are talking about root canal treatment and d dentist could not have find canals in the root. And he can not complete the treatment so he is asking for extraction of the tooth. Now a days we have advance equipments to deal with calcified canals so please get a second consultation before going for extraction.

Dear Lybrate user, you should take IOPA/RVG for be sure that actually root is calcified or not. If root is calcified you should extract the tooth. Because it will cause you problem in future.
