Because of all of your support here on JL i have begun going back to the dentist.
He did a root canal 2 weeks ago on the tooth that was bothering me most....my previous experience with root canals was once they took the nerve out, the pain went away instantly..this one did also for a few days. About 3-4 days ago, it began to ache again at night. And today it is aching all day long...wth? how can this be?
I see a periodontist tomorrow about this tooth to see if they can lengthen the crown of the tooth....if he cant lengthen it, I wont be able to get it capped and ill need a bridge instead...which i REALLY dont want. So im hoping he can do this lengthening thing...but why is it still painful? Anyone ever have this happen after a root canal?
