Hello,

I will suggest you to look into the aggravating factor of your trigeminal neuralgia. You should consult a dentist first. The primary problem may lie in bridge fixation and 2 root canal which you have done recently as the pain was well controlled before these procedures. Meanwhile add some analgesic in your regimen, like diclofenac sodium 50mg twice a day to get instant relief.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammad Faisal Bacha, Internal Medicine Specialist
