Hello Practo User , Welcome Onboard -
This is your Dentist -
Kindly Upload the image of the Xray to me.
Once I review the image , I would let you know whether you need a Root Canal for 26 or not.
Simply crowing the tooth can also solve the issue.
Crown of 25 was the reason for caries in 26 , since there was a gap that anchored food debris.
Upload the images of the Xray and the sensitive tooth . I will assist immediately and help you in every possible way.
- Chlohex ADS mouthwash .
- Tab Keterol DT Sos.
Have a Good Day.
Thanks Alot
Happy New Year.

Kindly upload your x ray. If the tooth pains.. There are more chances of RCT. Make sure your crowns fit well or the problem of food lodgement won't get solved.

The problem seems to be due to food lodgement between 25 and 26. While placing crown usually that gap should be avoided. Some unavoidable gaps will be there for that you must use floss or interdental brush to avoid food lodgement over that area. So that we can avoid both caries formation and gum problems, bone loss problems etc.
Next Steps
If your doctor has taken xray and advised for rct means you have to do it no other way of solution to get rid of your pain permanently. And one more extra solution if you are affordable you can do this.. after completing rct in 26 u can remove crown from 25 and replace the crown as joined/attached 25 and 26. So that you can avoid food lodgement between 25 and 26 in future and there will be no occurence of reinfection.
Health Tips
Use floss or interdental brushes whenever you have food lodgement between any two teeth.
Always gargle after every meal.
