Experiencing Pain On Left Side Where Root Canal Done, Whole Mouth Sore. What To Do ?
I have recently had 2 new crowns put in. Both Bottom Molars. While the first one had its temporary on I started experiencing pain on my left side which I had a root canal. Then I had the temporary (left side and the Permanent right side. My bit was off on my right side and then my left permanent one came in. I hade so much pain in my root canal crown. My dentist has been adjusting my right so much. I kept telling him I felt like the right side was too low. I think I jumped to get it adjusted too quickly and also, My bottom teeth where not in a straight line but when he put the new crown's in suddenly they are straight. I think this through off my bit. I am in so much pain. Oh, and my roots are curved. I feel like my root canal tooth never was completed and I feel like my right side is too low and since he took off some off the upper teeth to try to adjust it he made things worse. What do I do know. My whole mouth is sore and I don't even want to eat anymore?

Dear friend.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
Please do not be worried,i can very well understand that you have immense pain.The cause could be probably the incompletely treated root canal, teeth on your left lower jaw.
Therefore in my view please discuss it with your dentist and get the crowns removed presently.
After that wait and see if the tooth is asymptomatic then you can go for the crown placement else please get re root canal treatment done for the concerned tooth.
Also if possible you can meet an endodontist,who is dealing exclusively in such type of cases,so that further better treatment modalities can be offered to you.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
Take care.

Hello,
Thanks for writing to us.
The pain may be associated with improper root canal treatment undergone or due to re-infection of rc treated tooth.
Improper placement of crown resulting in malocclusion can also lead into severe pain.
I would suggest you to get a thorough clinical as well as x-ray examination done.
Re-rct has to be done if necessary.
Crown has to be placed well and proper occlusion should be maintained.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Thanks for asking the query,
Pain after root canal treatment can be due to incompletely done procedure, accidently left over unexplored canal, left over pulp tissue in the canal, i would suggest you to get an x-ray done of the affected tooth, if required you have to go for re-RCT of the tooth.
Take complete course of antibiotics and analgesics under prescrition of your Dentist.
Hope this helps out.
Regards....

hi...
thanks for the query...
pain can be due to incomplete root canal therapy and due to high crown placement also...
get your crown removed and wait and watch...
go for re RCT if required...
also, the crown which your dentist will place should not interfere with your occlusion... it should not be too high and you should be able to close the mouth properly like before...
hope it will help you...
take care...
