I had my dental bridge in 2012 and without any problem for almost 15 years. Last week I started having sensitivity in the last abutment tooth. I went to the dentist after 3 days and he removed my bridge to examine and took x-rays. Told me there was no visible problem. He applied desensitising agent on my abutment tooth and leave it for 24 hours to observe. There was no issue for 24 hours so he re-cemented it back. Now after few hours of re-cementing. I have mild pain and sensitivity lasting for 3 days now. Please tell me what to do. My dentist suggested me RCT in the abutment tooth if the problem does not resolve.

Hello Doctor,
I have an impacted wisdom tooth that has been advised for surgical removal. I also think I may have cavities in some of my other teeth.
I would like to get a complete dental check-up. Can you please:
- Examine all of my teeth for cavities and gum problems?
- Advise if I need a full mouth examination and an OPG (full mouth X-ray)?
- Let me know which teeth need fillings, root canal treatment, or any other treatment?
- Can the wisdom tooth surgery and complete dental evaluation be planned together?
Thank you.
I just had my permanent filling done after my root canal, but I'm experiencing a lot of pain. Is this normal after a filling? The dentist told me that my temporary filling had come off between appointments, so food got stuck inside, which caused the pain. She prescribed Leford DT three times a day. I've had root canals before, but I've never experienced this much pain. Is this normal
