Does This Mean I Need a Root Canal?!
Question:
Does This Mean I Need a Root Canal?
I have developed a slight throbbing toothache on a tooth that only shows a tiny cavity. It is sensitive to the tap. Not sensitive to hot or cold yet though. Any dentists, endodontists or RDA's out there that can help? Does this mean I need another root canal? I left a msg with my dental office today.

I just wanted to clarify that it is NOT sensitive to either hot or cold at this point. It is an old filling with a tiny brown line and it is mildly throbbing at this point. I am waiting for my dentist to call to make an apmt.

Simple toothache does not mean root canal needs to be done.
