I guess we are speaking about the left upper 1,2 molars. It does look overextended in one root in first molar and there is also some infection below... it will be helpful to see the xray before surgery... if the infection below was present before RCT then it should have atleast stopped paining after the RCT... make sure which tooth is hurting... you could take an opinion from an Endodontist who is specialised in Root canal treatments... hope this helps u

Try to locate the exact tooth which is paining. 3 months after RCT is more than enough time for the pain to settle down. Please go to a good dentist who will locate the painful tooth and of it is the third molar, it needs to be removed. Do not delay the crown for the treated tooth too much.. you may have a fractured tooth! Hope this helps....
