Pain source: Pain can come from many sources even after your root canal. The tooth may be a fraction too high in your bite subsequently bruising your tooth socket, the tooth may have had a fracture to start, food may be getting caught around the tooth, some residual bacteria may be caught down deep around the root, etc. A visit with your dentist may lead to some answers or a night guard. Best to you.

Question 4

which age for braces will have less risk of root resorption? young or old? does age have anything to do with root resorption? is that true the younger you are, the shorter the teeth root is and so the more risky for root resorption with teeth movement?

Accepted Answer

Root formation: The completed formation of the roots is the determiner, not the age of the patient. Roots are usually completely formed about 3 years after the tooth erupts, so there is a slight variance between patients.  Your concerns are valid and should be discussed one on one with your child's orthodontist. They will have the radiographs and the experience to treat your child appropriately.

Question 6

i have had 3 teeth root canaled, some more than once. i have ongoing pain and tingling in the face. my endodontistsays that my teeth are ok but i don't believe it. what shouldi do?

Accepted Answer

Second opinion: If you are unsure as to what is happening get a second opinion.  It certainly can be that the root canal treatment is ok and there is another cause.  It also could be that a tooth is fractured somewhere.  Fractures are hard to detect and in fact sometimes you do not know that a tooth had one till the tooth is extracted and you can then see it.   The problem may not be related to your teeth at all.

Question 7

i had right side tooth, cheek and head pain. dentist said no problem with teeth, root or nerve. it is because of stress.now only filling tooth is pain?

Accepted Answer

See an endodontist: Oral infections such as certain chronic abscess or cracked, fractured teeth can often be difficult to diagnose and treat. In addition to dental school, endodontists receive 2-3 more years of advanced education in this kind of diagnosis and treatment. That’s why you should see an endodontist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Question 10
