There are members that will be able to answer that question but I cannot. There are also growth retardant products that can be used on the tree while roots develop (if the tree is up to it at this point). You need a highly qualified arborist, better yet, a couple of opinions before spending a lot more money though. A Certified Arborist is the basic starting point in your search. References should also be sought. I think your current arborist may have taken you on a bit of a wild goose chase if the thin canopy provoked these treatments he performed. Was tree dormant when he began? Did he observe root cutting or the aftermath or were they already covered up?
