Suggest Treatment For Pain And Swelling Of Upper Front Tooth

Abscess, tooth infection, root canal treatment
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
As far as the pain and the swelling is concerned, it is because of the tooth infection in the capped tooth. The tooth loses its life following trauma, it may take many years and later it can get infected. So the severe pain and swelling is because of the pressure(pus formation or abscess) within the pulp chamber of capped tooth. So the medicines what you are taking is fine but the cause has to be removed. So consult a endodontist and get the access cavity opened and allow the pus to drain. Once the pus drains the pain reduces automatically. later get the tooth treated with root canal treatment.
For the severe pain you can take analgesics like ketorol along with the other medicines you are taking now.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.

RCT through previous crown
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your feedback. The main purpose of access cavity preparation to allow the pus to drain. If pus is not drained, it will create lot of pressure within the bone near the root tip. Once the access cavity is opened the pus will drain and infection will come down.
Regarding the ceramic crown, we can do the root canal treatment by drilling a hole through the cap itself. Do not get the cap removed, you can go ahead with the root canal treatment by retaining the same cap.
I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
