Question

Can a root canal and capping of teeth be done while a woman is in her menses. What is the ruling in this matter? Or she has to fix the tooth cap after taking a bath from menses?

Answer

This is a medical treatment and carrying out this treatment in the state of haidh is permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
