Pain in root canal retreated tooth
I have jaw pain under ear and neck(only right side) since May2020.Dentist said tooth 46 hurting for tapping and biting pressure on it. So suggested root canal. Did rct by Endo in Sept 2020.No relief.Same tapping and biting pressure on it.It hurts for any little pressure on it.Taken cbct before and after Rct. Nothing found evident.
46tooth&gum hurts for brushing on it,touching with tongue,pressing with fingers on it.Hurts sore constantly in the gum and tooth.Constant jaw pain under ear and neck.Dentist suspect this tooth is the reason for jaw and neck pain.
Went to new Endo.He said there is some dead space unfilled in distal root and asked to retreat that root. Retreated that root and he filled with medicine.He said he put calcium hydroxide.Told me I should get immediate relief.
It's been 5 days&taking ibuprofen every 6 hours. No changes in the tooth pain. I am using a very soft bristle brush. Tooth and gum hurts for brushing. It hurts if I touch with tongue. Hurts even not touched.

Deep cavity fluoride filling
I got a deep asymptomatic cavity treated at the dentist who used fluoride filling to remineralise a little bit of the Dentin decay. I have to wait for two months and if no pain develops, I have to get composite filled over the restoration.
It scares me a little that a part of the decay is still inside. Is that alright? It's been a month almost and no pain has risen so far. Also, will a different dentist agree to do the composite filling? I might be moving over to a new state next month.

General question on clinic practices
I went to a clinic for some treatment (anterior teeth fillings for inter proximal cavities). The dentist I had taken an appointment to see for treatment
redirected me to a young duty doctor whom he instructed to do the fillings for me. The senior dentist did not check on me again after the procedure.
I am quite unhappy with the fillings quality. (I can't floss between four of my restored teeth now and I have to go see the dentist again for the same).
On another note, is it alright for dentists to re-assign you to the duty doctors there even though you had specifically made an appointment with them? Are patients allowed to voice their consent regarding the same?
No offence intended, I'm just quite anxious at having to go to the dentist again as I have severe dental anxiety already. I was wondering if this is standard practice in clinics.

Wisdom Tooth Removal
After Wisdom Tooth extraction, iam suggested by doc to have cold things like icecream, cold coffee etc on 1st day. My question is do I need to drink from other side and not from the extraction side? But as told cold things will heal the extraction part? So please tell, it is confusing for me.

Pain in tooth after re-RCT first step.
How long does a tooth hurt after root canal with calcium hydroxide inside?I had a root canal on tooth46 more than an year ago since that tooth hurts for tapping and biting pressure on it. No changes even after the root canal. Same symptoms.I have jaw pain under ear lobe area and neck for 1.5 years &this tooth was suspected as the cause of that pain. No relief&definite diagnosis yet.I went to new Endo and he spotted that first root canal is not filled till the end of the one root. And that dead space could be causing the symptoms and pain. I have constant pain in that tooth underneath and gum area. It hurts for any little pressure on it. Even pressing with fingers on it hurts.
I have been told to retreat root canal. I had the first step done 2 days back. He reopened just that one canal and filled with medicine. The second treatment filling is after a month.It's been 2 days and still paining.tooth still hurts the same way as before.Is this normal to have pain after medicine or any issue
