Suggest Treatment For Severe Pain After Root Canal Treatment And Crown Placement

I had a root canal on a back tooth, number 25 I believe, the dentist did not fill the four root canal holes and he put a tempory crown on......it has been one year. I have had crazy pain.....how long can you wait before having the holes filled. It was a tempory cement used and a plastic tempory bridge on all three back teeth.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain after the root canal treatment can be because of the missed canal, or incompletely filled root canals. Nothing to be panic, consult a endodontist and get it retreated. You might have to get the bridge removed and get the tooth retreated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like amoxicillin and metronidazole(if you are not allergic).
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
