Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have undergone root canal treatment now you pain pain in crown , yes this pocket formation is seen in 60 percent of patients with crown as there is accumulation of food debris and proper cleaning is not maintain .
I will suggest you to go for currettage of pocket and if you wont get relief then go for Re Rct .
Hope this will help you.
Wishing you good health.
