Hello
The teeth with history of trauma at times develops a cyst or internal resorption over the years when root canal has not been done.
You need to visit the dentist and get x-ray of the tooth and confirm if any pathology is there and get the treatment accordingly i.e. root canal, +/- cyst enucleation and new cap or removal of tooth if it's badly damaged.
For further queries you can also call at our clinic.
