Ask dentist.: This sounds like it's worth asking your dentist in the morning. Call and see if the pain is enough that you should worry. It would not hurt to get examined again.

See an endodontist: for evaluation. Endodontists are dentists who have at least 2-3 years of advanced training in root canals. They are experts at diagnosing complications after root canal treatment and use advanced special equipment to treat patients efficiently and comfortably.
