Can RCT Lead To Throat Irritation?

Hi,



My root canal cavity has stayed unfilled since the treat was ongoing in July this year.

There was a temporary filling placed which was to be replaced by a permanent filling but i could not finish my treatment.

Now, I am having irritation in my throat when i eat food that cantains even slight amount of spices and also having frequently having acidity problem.

Could my unfilled root canal cavaity be the cause. Also what are the other side-effects of unfilled root canal cavity.



Thanks.

Hi
With you query, RCT cannot be the reason for throat irritation unless if the treatment was done without rubberdam and if the disinfectant or sodium hypochlorite or any other irrigating solution reaches your throat while performing treatment. but that irritation is immediate after treatment.You have mentioned you had treatment in july of this year please be clear when did you got it done for best info.you had irritation may be due to acidity problem wyou have where the acids may come near or into throat causing irritation.I kindly suggest you to visit dentist for complete treatment and gasto entero specialist for better results.Hope this is helpful
