There is no practical correlation between root canal treatment and shivering of a single digit of the body..... you can continue with the root canal treatment without any problem, whether long term or short term..... Regards....

There could not be any side effects like shivering and trembling hands after root canal treatment. .It's a mere coincidence. .Please go ahead with the treatment without fear

Thats just an impossibility. No side effect of root canal apart from time being allergy to root canal materials and irrigants in very few patients.

Root canals dont have side effects if properly done Perforations and going beyond the apex should be taken care of for this check with the x- rays Otherwise All is well!!!

Hi, As per the clinical situation,preferably for replacing the lower anterior tooth/teeth with prosthesis,dentist will have to prepare natural tooth/teeth.For making the desired preparation ( to avoid oversize or bulky crown/aesthetically good crown) dentist will do root canal of tooth/teeth.As such there is NO SIDE EFFECTS OF DOING MULTIPLE ROOT CANAL AS PER LITERATURE.Shivering of thumb is may be due to anxiety or age factor of your dad.
Next Steps
Don't worry & continue with your treatment.
