What Causes Pain During Root Canal And Suggest Remedy For The Same

Hi. My dentist did a root canal 2 months ago. All the while lots of pain. Everytimf I go back he says it still has a abcess. It's very painful. He gave me another pres for antibotics. 6 pres now in 2 months. But says he hasn't gotten his DPS license renal back to give Tylenol 3. Should I go elsewhere? I hurt so bad and it never gets better? How can he work on people but can't give pain relief?

Hi..
Can understand your concern..

As per your complain if after two months also there is pain even after taking 6 rounds of antibiotics it is very much possible that you have a missed root canal which has vital nerve tissue and inflammation in the nerve tissue can cause you pain and discomfort..

There can also be perforation of tooth due to deep cavity cutting causing splitting of the tooth into two parts can also be the cause..

I would suggest you to consult an Endodontist and get evaluated and in case of missed canal exploration of the canal , cleaning and filling can be relieving....

In case of perforation extraction can be done..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
