Question:
Why am I still having pain in tooth after treatment?
I had a crown put on a tooth about a year ago after it got chipped. Now, I just had to have and endo go into the crown and do a root canal. He said it was a 3 canal channel or something. And was real inflamed. The pain was intense for 2 weeks going into headaches. Then when that pain let up the tooth started to be sensitive again. When i push my tongue down on it or touch the gum area or try to tap on that tooth it is very sensitive. What else could be going on?
Answers:
Could be several things. Infection could still be present because all of debris has not been removed or they may another canal present. Whatever the case contact your dentist, don't wait for it to go away.
