Root Canal

2016-05-15 19:06:04
I had wisdom tooth which was coming at some inclined angle and pushing the second molar and created cavity. I went for tooth extraction and RCT. No issues with extraction. Root canal was also done properly (no caping) but after some time while chewing some sort of sensations were started. Again filling was done with temp first and few days later with permanent but this time also sensations are there but less compared to last time. Does anyone suggest me what sort of problem is this? What should I do?

Hi there ...see.. When we do the root canal treatment, we take out everything from the tooth and fill the canals with some artificial yet noble material...because of which tooth becomes brittle... And to give it strength for mastication...capping is necessary... Without a cap... Due to masticatory load...there could be some sensation on chewing.... So I would suggest you to go for the crown(capping) w.r.t. same ASAP before it gets infected secondarily... Take care ...!!
