No crown after RCT

2021-05-09 14:09:16
Had undergone RC 2 months back. Dr had suggested to get a crown within 2 days. Couldn't do it due to some reasons. Now i can sense a swelling on right cheek but no pain. Also a slight disturbance in the right eye while blinking. What could be the reason. Please guide. Really scared.

Swelling may be due to reinfection as the treatment is incomplete. You have to get reRCT done. There is no relation between teeth and eyes. If you have disturbance in the eyes then consult an Optholmologist. Hope this helps Cheers
