Should I be worried if I have pain even after RCT?

                                             

To begin with, Root canal treatment is generally performed by dentists' if your cavities extend and affect till the tooth pulp . This basically means, we need to remove the infected pulp tissue and replace it with a 3 dimensional filling.

                               

Now why does the pain still persists?

 In most of the cases, patients tend to have a mild dull aching pain even after RCT.  This,

• may be your infection is still in the healing stage (it takes 3 months for a tooth end lesion to heal completely)
• may be your root canal treated tooth is quite high and you feel gnawing pain.
• tooth ache after RCT can be even due to post operative sensitivity 
• if the root canal treated tooth pains after crown placement , it is mostly because the crown may feel high and normally visiting your dentist might ensure the relieving of pressure on it.

in any case , have a regular follow up to your dentist and always a routine diagnostic x ray is necessary to formulate the next process.
