I am meeting an endo tomorrow for a first consult on #18.

No pain, no pus, no fever. Acute irreversible pulpitis with periapical abscess.

I do have swelling over both #18 and #19 that has been there for 7 days now already so time is passing. Everyone was closed over Thanksgiving.

Can I get some guidance on the endo steps/choices? How do I judge the quality of his recommendations and commit?

Is this a clear cut case or should I waste time and money on consulting different endos?
