Toothache even after Re-RCT
My 1st Root Canal Treatment was started on 14th February 2022 and ended after 3 sittings.
My tooth was still paining even after taking a lot of antibiotics and painkiller.
So on 21st April my dentist did a Re-RCT then also my pain is not going.
Then on 30th April 2022 my dentist called me for his RCT sitting.
After that sitting my toothache has worsen my entire mouth got swollen even the jawline of that particular side was paining and that pain is unbearable.
Now what should I do..??
I have attached recent photo of my tooth and one previous x-ray of my tooth.
