Pain after rct
Hi! I've had my obturation done 3 months back. Now, I'm feeling a bit pain on that tooth. Not a prolonged or severe pain but a mild pain that lasts for seconds. Is this some kind of a major problem?

take a x- ray of the treated tooth to find out the cause of pain and also pain can be due to raised bite (high point) on the crown

Usually a slight discomfort can be there post obturation.. it is during initial days after finishing root canal... anything after 3 months,we need to clinically check and do the needful

If you have not done capping then pain could be due to food impaction. Get an X-ray done to rule out reinfection. Treatment depends on the cause of pain. The tooth can also fracture sometimes. Clinical examination required for proper diagnosis
