I got RCT done approx 4 months back .. crown was not placed due to covid and I stopped visiting my dentist. I am having problem in chewing because food stucks and also I feel pain not in tooth but at right side at the gum of treated tooth. What could it be? Please suggest and if it will go once the crown is placed.

Please attach clear photographs of the effected area. It could be due to delay in crown placement. Because after root canal, tooth structure becomes weak and somewhat reduced due to root canal procedure. So it's better to go for crown. It's better to consult with doctor online or offline for better guidance and treatment options. Warm saline water rinses two to three times a day, use mouthwash.
