Asking For Sister, Female 24, Rawalpindi

had root canal and crowning 7 years ago .. but now its painful out of sudden. dont know why but can not bite . inner side( the one on the side of tounge)of the crown is painful not whole crown but inner side . took 2 panadol tablets for pain , pain is reduced but still can not bite it hurts on inner side . help and suggest what to do? what could be possible reason of it . can there be infection inside the crown ? if yes suggestions please?

Dentist in Burewala - Dr. Adil Rehman Ghumman

Please visit the dentist for evaluation,
Proper design can be made only after examination and an xary.

Pain can be due to food impaction on tongue side, or fracture in tooth, or reinfection in root treated tooth.

It seems to be an infection involving the crowned tooth, you should visit a nearby dentist ASAP for proper evaluation and treatment

You will have to visit the clinic for a check up. We need to get an x ray done to check for infection and then treat accordingly

We will know everything once we get an x ray done because it looks fine on the outside but on the inside is another story

After getting it properly accessed then we can plan further treatment . But if it is completely lost then there are two options . One is crown and second is implants . Long term is implants but crown is non surgical .

the xray is not as clear as required to see the root part of the tooth and adjacent teeth as well. so go for a fresh and clear xray.
