I'm surprised that the dentist would have you get all of this done so close together. I wouldn't, unless I was a masochist (sp)...Call tomorrow and see what the dentist says, in the end though it is really entirely up to you and what you are comfortable doing.
I agree, too much too soon. even though root canal is on the other side, I'd wait until the first side a bit more healed. as to the deep cleaning - I'd wait!
