Swelling in thegum near root canal tooth
I have a swelling and pain in the gum near my root canal tooth... i had a few days ago and it subsided with medicines.. the swelling and pain had again emerged.. i got an xray done but does not show any infection... plz advice
Hello
Pain and swelling are signs of infection.
It usually shows only the x-ray but if it's not evident then there is chance of fracture of the tooth which is not evident on a 2 dimensional x-ray film. Clinical evaluation is reqd to further comment on it.you can visit our clinic with the x-ray, in Kharadi for further diagnosis and treatment.
