Is it possible to miss roots from WT ext

2022-05-24 05:05:32
Hi I have pain in the lower jaw near the mandible jaw line end and side of the neck for 2 years now. Have tapping and biting pressure pain on 46 but CBCT scan was normal for 46. Had root canal in 2020 for these symptoms as it's hurting for tapping and biting pressure on it. No relief and same symptoms. Had retreat in distal canal from another Endodontist in Jan 2022 and same symptoms till now. Had Cbct and MRI of jaw and neck which was normal.  CBCT of tooth 46 doesn't show anything. I have extracted my wisdom tooth on both sides lower ones long back. But report says something about that wisdom teeth.  Don't know if any roots missed and causing pain now? Lingual undercut is noted i.r.t 47-48 region and 37-38 region.  Prominent buccal crestal area is noted i.r.t edentulous 48 region. Cortices are intact. Buccal crestal exostosis is noted with edentulous 48 region.  Localized concavity is noted with the lingual plate i.r.t 47-48 region. Are these report findings are normal?

Hi, check for high points on crown i.r.t. 46, that can also cause pain.

There are spicules. May need alveoloplasty. Spicules appear if the new bone is formed pointed. No one can predict or change bone formation. Alveoloplasty can be done.
