Pain: Root canal Rx may be failing or pain can be from other dental/oral source. See your Dentist to find out if Endodontist should retreat tooth or if other options are applicable. But don't wait, call Dentist now.

Needs an examination: You may have an issue with the root canal itself or the crown. Tooth might be fractured. You might even have a sinus infection which can cause the feeling of a toothache. Have your dentist evaluate the tooth.
