hello,
as per the x-ray shown above. there are certain teeth over which crowns have been placed without doing the root canal treatment. so if you have pain, you need to get those teeth treated. also, long span bridges are not advisable.

rct seems to be fine in all teeth. but two teeth where rct is not done may b e the cause of pain . you have to come to the clinic to get diagnosed as to which tooth is causing problem

Please consult an endodontist because under a bridge it could be any tooth that can be causing the pain. The endodontist would then do a re rct of that affected tooth.

Rcts seems to be ok radiographically...also its rare to develop pain in relation to all rc treated teeth simultaneously due to rc failure...there can be a problem with the bite in the bridge placed..you have to get it properly investigated to reach a diagnosis and treat it accordingly

You need to undergo a detailed examination to ascertain those teeth which are actual cause of problem and go for re RCT if needed for those or auxiliary RCT procedures may be useful . Consult an Endodontist .

Hi, Recent x ray has to be taken to evaluate the nature of root canal fillings & to see whether any infection is present.Please visit an Endodontist (Root canal specialist) for any re rct if required .Lower left root canal treated teeth also requires cap as it might break if cap is not put.

Most of RCT obstruction seems fine. Few are are slightly less condensed ( only single cone is placed in root canal), need clinical and IOPA of individual teeth to locate the problem. Might need Re-rct of some teeth.
Next Steps
IOPA and clinical examination.
